    That makes sense if they like Moses more than Badji. Those two are similar in potential long-term. ....Reath is a different type of player

    Good. Was not sure why we waived him in the first place but that may have been necessary for a two way contract. Didn't think Badji is any where close to contributing where Reath is atleast a third stringer.

    Badji and Knox will be Remix starters. Great thing about having a G league in Portland that practices in the same facility. Reath can play some 4 next to our two starting centers as well as backup center. He's a decent 3 pt shooter.

    Reath is better then Badji and Butler combined.
    No joke, I think Duop could take them 1 on 2 in pickup games to 21.

    How about we sign Hadji? Wait, we'd have to call his agent......Race Bannon.

    Does that mean Badji will be playing with the Remix?

    I don't know what the team sees in Badji.
    For that matter, I don't know what they see in Moses Brown either.

    With Conditt’s injury the big situation in NoPo is pretty dire.

    I love having four actual centers on the roster. That makes 5 if you count Williams.
