    That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying there's advanced metrics that show he's not a good defender.

    In my opinion, those metrics are unfair because he has an incredibly small sample size. I think he's probably a decent defender, but is hampered by his size/athletic profile in the NBA.

    This is pretty much what I'm seeing too. The only caveat is if he can bring some defense, he may make the parent squad because I don't see a lot of guard defense on the bench right now.

    I remember him. A 2nd round pick a year ago.

    As I recall, Kobe would refer to this kid as "Charmin soft".

    Worth a shot though for a camp invite.

    Kinda looks like a G-League Myles Leonard (Portland).

    I'm sure these are just all camp invites for bodies. Though, I'd love for us to keep searching for a small ball center type of player.
