    That's it. He's getting traded. We have standards around here with spelling, grammar, etc.

    Going to miss you Jordan!

    Glad we pick up his option; he's a bulldog defensively.

    Looking forward to seeing his play in summer league and season. Seems to have the body and maturity to find a permanent role on this team. Plus he is in a contract year, so a healthy contract is staring him in the face.

    You can tell he knows and keeps talking about being aggressive and making the most of his opportunity. Love Magic being so hands on and it looks like our team has developed an OCD to get better.

    Good game by Nwaba going 6-9. Missed some FTs or else he gets more than 13.

    Nwaba showed some of what we love and some of what he still really needs to work on. I absolutely adore his activity and energy out there. Nwaba's effort and energy are as infectious as Lonzo's passing. Nwaba has excellent athleticism for his size that he really uses defensively to challenge other players. Nwaba did an excellent job defending the wings of Boston including Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum. Tatum is an excellent iso scorer so he was able to use his length to still score over the top, but Nwaba did about as great a job as could be asked of him. Nwaba was also an excellent partner for Lonzo when it came to pushing the break.

    However, Nwaba still showed he's not able to shoot the ball confidently yet. Until Nwaba has a three point shot, there's only so much he's going to be able to do. If Nwaba wants to stick in the league and get that big payday, he needs to add the jumper to his game. Hell if he could add a jumper to his game he may take the starting SG role eventually.

    Legit defense. Attacks the rim. Just needs to develop that 3 ball.
