Hoard had 14 points (7-13) and 9 boards in 26 minutes. Moses had 6 (3-5) and 6 along with two blocks in 11 minutes. He was an X factor and a big reason Texas got back in the game. Commentators were talking him up the whole time.
Hoard with 30 points and 9 rebounds tonight on 11-18 shooting. Brown with 9 points and 6 rebounds on 4-6 shooting in 15 minutes.
I watched it. It’s kind of hard to tell how Hoard would do against nba players because he looked physically so much bigger than the guys he was going up against and most his buckets were of the bully ball variety. He really is like Harkless in that regard. He’s got ideal size, is a smooth athlete, runs the floor, has decent ball handling, and crashes the glass, but I don’t remember him taking more than maybe a couple jumpers. With Moses, it’s a little more obvious. He’s very fluid for his size and should be a pick and roll threat, but if he had to play minutes in the NBA right now, he’d probably get pushed around tbh. He needs some time to develop physically.
Hoard had 14 points on 4-8 shooting, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steals 1 turnover in 26 minutes. Moses only played 4 minutes. Texas had 11 dudes in their rotation. It’d be great to have our own g league team so a minutes crunch wouldn’t happen. But now they’re both back with Portland. I honestly like both of these guys but not sure either is ready for actual minutes. But Hoard has an NBA body, especially if they’re developing him at small forward.
