    He was played in 15 out of 17 games after he came back from injury and then got injured again. I’m pretty sure you guys think he was far healthier than he really was. The only time he didn’t play but could have was for a 4 week stretch in March when we were cruising. That’s what 12 games out of 82?

    Playing for two minutes at the end of a game is not “development.”
    That’s just giving the rotation guys rest in an already decided game.

    Yes, development takes pressurized meaningful minutes.

    Yes, his activity and athleticism gave us a boost. I'd play him more minutes.

    His athleticism pops. He got so high on his first rebound. He should take Jake's minutes.

    I missed his minutes (glad I missed the beat down portion sigh) - how'd he look?

    Athletic, crashes the boards on both sides with a knack to rebound. Defensively the game is too fast for him at the moment. Had an open look and didn't want to take the shot.

    He needs to work on his shooting and his defense this offseason. He has the high flying dunk thing already.
