    Sharpe will have to develop at least an average handle. He very limited in what he can do in the flow of a game other than shoot threes and periodic back door alley O's.

    More FGA's is Toronto's offensive strategy to overcome not having shooters. We're 16-23 so it mostly doesn't pan out.

    Eubanks isn't great but I dunno why Toronto made no effort to keep him.

    tired of watching eubanks play this many minutes.

    he leads the league in useless jumps in the air.

    Im thinking we should have drafted Sochan. He's going to be one of the next star defenders.

    Walker should be a starter. Blazers need someone like him.

    NICE recovery by Walker to block that shot at the rim. Tremendous instincts for a rookie.

    3 people shading Ant whenever he has the ball. Hard to play when the team only needs to guard one player

    I think more FGA is every teams strategy.

    I know. We didn't even look at him.

    On 10 February 2022, Eubanks, Thaddeus Young, and a 2022 second-round selection were traded to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for Goran Dragić and a 2022 first-round draft selection.[10] He was subsequently waived.
