He closed the game really well. The interception steal and finish, another and one and a hard drive to the rim all in the final few minutes.
That corner three he hit playing off ball needs to be money for him, and he'll get time on the court, IMO. Our space eating big man who will collapse the paint will find shooters in the corners. Hit those at a high clip and be passable defensively (league average), and you'll get time.
Honestly, I'm a fan and would like to see us lock him up. He's the type of guy I'd like to see us fully develop.
He played well tonight, made it difficult on their rookie/guards all game. I’m still not sure I’m seeing an NBA player, but he definitely has made the case to stay on the 2-Way.
Loved that he set the defensive tempo for the game, literally right from the jump. Put up 10n on the first Q too. Had some good success getting to the basket and not just hitting the 3 ball.
Haven’t seen this year’s Bronny yet and he will have improved too. Manon has him on D but last year’s James has this year’s Chris on offense by a similar margin and is much further along all around and more explosive when you add in the vertical and variety of ways to score. Smoother and better handle. IMO. It’s excellent though after seeing Smart last year … Bronny seeing the super aggressive way Manon also uses his hands and gets in tight to really annoy and disrupt his opponents, and this guy wants his job.
More like fillet Minon with a soft a instead of the i. And eff those sissy swirly things I’m too lazy to figure out as well.
He doesn't strike me as an NBA level player, but to be honest neither did Goodwin until we put him around better players. Would be a real nice story if he breaks through.
Agree ^ I’ve watched almost every CA Classic and Vegas Summer League this time around … (mostly bc of Adou and Cam Carr). While manon has some decent highlights as of late, he is way too slow, doesn’t do any one thing well, and I simply don’t see his game translating to the NBA. I would prioritize kaluma by hundreds of miles before manon. I guess you can just say I’m not a fan. Could very well be solid g league level guy though or do a spot fill in as a 15th man if our whole team is unavailable.
