    Where can I find stats for Las Vegas? I'm looking at NBA.COM and it only shows daily leaders (yesterdays games).

    I don't know who could possibly be rated ahead of Kuzma. Just look at what Kuzma has done! If Kuzma was a lottery pick, I bet he makes the 1st team.

    Nice to see Tatum wasn't 1st team above him.

    I said it in the other thread, but there's no reason for Jackson to be in front of him, but yes it's great to see Tatum joining him on the 2nd team. I like Tatum, but Kuzma has been in the same stratosphere 24 picks later. That's damn impressive.

    Damn. I thought the Zo effect was inflating Kuz' numbers. But color me wrong, he's a flat out stud.

    Not only offensively, he fought hard against a much stronger Swanigan in the post and boarded well.

    He's just a smart and versatile player. What a steal. Fantastic scouting by the team.

    So cool to see one of our guys win summer league MVP AND finals game MVP, love that Kuzma got it. And lol at Josh Jackson being 1st team ahead of him. Kuzma outplayed him, sorry.

    I might be a Lonzo homer but I am beyond impressed with Kuzma.

    I'm hoping we hit the jackpot like Jimmy Butler at #30!!

    Kuzma's shooting ability from 3 is sweet and he is phenomenal running the floor. If he can learn to play defense this guy is Lonzo's running mate for the next decade

    I'm absolutely not opposed to giving him the corpse's minutes in pre-season to start with. If he doesn't earn the time from there that's on him. But I don't think he could be worse than the corpse, so give him a shot, zero to lose.

    I feel like you have to give this guy minute and a fair amount in pre-season you don't want to lose this confidence.
