    i think fultz looks like the real deal. tatum will be able to score right away. i didn't see much of jackson, but i heard he looked good.

    some rookies are actually playing pretty well in sl, which isn't all that common--usually dominated by lotto second-years and vets.

    Fultz has posted strong lines. Haven't seen much of him though.

    huh make me so sad, I know the Ball hype but dammit just like you can't teach the kind of passing with Ball, you can't teach that speed and passion Fox has for the gm. Sac had a solid draft and off season, Justin Jackson looks good too, from 3's to floater he's not one dimensional at all. The other Josh J. also looked good, his shooting was also off but he was smart enough to take it to the rack. Chris looks like a hybrid between Amare/Webber.

    I really like Justin Jackson's game and I was wishing we could have picked him up.

    It's the Mavs so I believe it's Dennis Smith Jr.

    ^^^ Just a sprain luckily.



    Honestly hate to see any more young guys for Philly get seriously injured. It's time for these kids to get to play and be a part of the future of the league, the league is better for it.

    i have concerns about tatum's game translating against pros, but we'll see. he's going to have to get stronger to do what i've seen him do against front line nba players. i also haven't seen him to much aside from iso.

    i watched dsj's first game, and his court vision is underrated, imo. he's a drive and kick guy, but he's good at that. kept setting folks up for wide open shots. his deep shot looked pretty bad, but he shot a good percentage in college.

    Well he had his issues at time against kuz but also managed to score on him too....kuz is no lock down guy but tatum will be going up against backups most likely so he should be ok

    I thought I was seeing things while watching Tatum's shooting form look more like Lonzo's than a "conventional" shot. I grabbed this video, slowed it down frame by frame and posted it on youtube. See for yourself. He brings the ball up to the left side of his head, left elbow swung way out, right elbow swung in nearly 45 degrees from linear, then brings it a bit back toward his center during the release.

    watched smith's second game...looks like he's ready right now. phx tried to switch jackson onto him to slow him down, and he got whatever he wanted anyway.

    think nba scouts overthought this one.
