    Nobody else is reporting it. I don’t trust Fentress.

    Since he got a clean MRI ....sounds like he hyperextended it which rest will fix...until it's stable, I wouldn't play him on it for Summer league

    Has there been any other sources on Scoot? I don't trust Fentress at all.

    This "will he/won't he" is all NBA marketing BS. They want to sell more tickets. Scoot sells tickets.

    The Blazers have seen what they needed to see from Scoot. They're not going to risk further injury to his shoulder.

    The minute he hurt it, he was done for Summer League.

    I don't know if I agree.... I think Scoot and Shae need time together to build chemistry.

    God it would be hilarious if Scoot played and made Fentress look like a moron.

    Oh, they got time. Like 10 years together hopefully, like Pippen and Jordan.

    Uhhh, you have Sharpe playing SF? Surely you aren't saying Sharpe is coming off the bench. That would be moronic.

    Sharpe had better be starting somewhere.

    I think Ant and Sharpe start and Scoot will get staggered pt guard minutes coming off the bench for at least the first half of the season

    Ant/Shae starting is more likely than Scoot/Shae. Make Scoot earn it at least to start the season.

    It could be the case of Fox / Haliburton where both Ant and Scoot are just too good to not start and Ant gets shipped for a Sabonis-type return

    So Fentress really know something NO ONE ELSE do? (Other than his NBA sauce)

    Or is Scoot playing?

    I haven't seen it anywhere else. In the past they have ruled him out the night before. Not a PEEP from the team.

    Would be pretty funny if they planned on shutting him down, Fentress reported it, and then they decided to put Scoot back out there just to fuck with Fentress.

    I would 100% do this if I was the team. Especially after the shit he pulled at the Grant/Thybulle presser.
