    I like his composure and feel for the game, Ham is going to have him at PF playing 25 minutes a game by month's end.

    If D-lo can't go he will get triple double and make like 7 for 10 on 3 's unless Pimple replace him with 40 minutes of Prince playing time

    Made his G-league debut last night for no reason whatsoever.



    Finished with 29/7/5 on 13-16 FGs, 3-5 3s.

    Clearly too good for that level of competition.

    What do you mean no reason? There is a reason.

    Why is this youngster in the D-League?

    Going to bump this up one time before it sinks forever into obscurity from Ham’s fear of the unfamiliar and NO history with the guy 6 years ago or whenever …. and it’s “Skylar we hardly knew you”.

    I'm not sure Ham determines who plays in the G League or not, that should be Rob's job, he's in charge of roster construction.

    Well he sure as **** determines who doesn't play in the varsity games or how stupidly few minutes others play in lieu of Prince. I mean WTF? He started off the season like he was going to 30 minute a night Gabe Vincent. Here is a more than adequate stopgap reserve PG who has played several years in the position in the league with good size, very decent looking skills and according to some reports is a not bad defender.

    Lol..Prince hasn't played as much lately, but our boy has been struggling to cover anybody, for awhile now LT.

    He's still one of my favorite players on the team, but Prince isn't causing his issues, Prince isn't adequately, covering them up either. We can agree on that part.

    Seriously tho, I do believe that Rob ultimately, makes these calls on G League assignments. Now I'm 100% with you, I don't really understand Mays in G League, while Jalen is on the regular roster. That's something that should be asked.

    Yo Ham!

    Play this man.

    Yo Rob! Get him inked up to be our 3rd PG for the next couple years.

    He's deserving of one shift at least, especially while we're shorthanded.

    He's a NBA player. Knows how to make smart decisions with the ball and how do attack and find the big in the paint.

    Ham should’ve kept rolling with him in the 4th.

    He tends to forget about the guy

    JHS needs to be in the G league and this guy needs to be in the rotation till Gabe gets back.

    I liked what I saw from him yesterday, he looks like an NBA player.
