    Pretty cool Scoot said he dreamed of playing football for the ducks. Even cooler red/black his favorite colors.

    It will be fun to see the much bigger/thicker Badji or Koumadje dunk on the toothpick Holmgren.

    I didn’t want Sharpe playing but he’s closer to a known commodity, but now with Dame on the way out, he absolutely should play with Scoot.

    If only they sent Ant too!

    Wtf is this email marketing I got? Why is Scoot being advertised next to Steph. Weird.

    Not sure if this is the reason, but Steph is helping to mento Scoot and they are in some collaboration together. That speaks volumes of Scoots maturity at that age to seek Steph out and for Steph to be on board with that.

    They do this every year. They advertise the rookies but they also want to make the point that the greats played here and you might just see the next.

    It's too bad the NBA isn't offering the streaming anymore. I liked being able to watch on demand.

    Fun fact — Badji’s standing reach of 9'10“ is in the same ballpark as Wemby’s 9’11”


    One is 7’5” and the other is 7’1” :blink:

    This is the light at the end of the tunnel. Can't wait for a clean slate. Mold these young players into caring about both sides of the court, change the culture, and build something special. Scoot and Shaedon have me thrilled at our team's future.

    I believe their wingspans are the same as well at 7'8". He is also decently mobile. He is a ferocious dunker with very little touch around the rim. He doesn't shoot well from the perimeter, but his shot actually doesn't look too bad in it's form, rotation and follow through. There might be hope there.

    But his ability to run the floor, block shots, and get put back dunks would be very welcome here. Hope he develops.
