Have you seen our roster?

Why wouldn’t he get minutes? We have no other incentive but to give young guy minutes, we’re not trying to win **** for a min

The bad shooting is one thing, but he just looks like a guy who doesn’t understand how to play basketball at a professional level.

From a sorta IQ, awareness, not sure what else to call it perspective he’s giving me tons of Bol Bol vibes. Like Bol Bol obviously has a good blend of size and skill, but he plays every possession like he’s Kobe on a heater. Like he’s the best player on the floor. The thought process of “this is what I need to do to get minutes” just looks like it never computes for him. Worried Sarr is much the same. Watching him take that pull up transition 3 with an open lane I think in game two was just horrible basketball IQ.

I get he’s not a true “big”, but watch Giannis, watch Lauri, watch AD, you can’t come into a summer league and look like the most lost player on the floor from an understanding your role standpoint as the number 2 pick. Like most these guys aren’t on, or ever will be on, a roster. And he looks behind the curve even compared to them.
