    also really love what i'm seeing from keegan.

    he has the entire scoring arsenal already. gets terrific positioning in the post, knows the angles, can shoot off the catch/dribble going either side. he's a complete offensive player at 21 already. just needs to tighten the handle.

    think he's a bit underrated defensively too because he doesn't have jaw dropping bounce. but his instincts are already there.

    pretty much exactly why i thought he'd translate to the nba.

    The Grizzlies always seem to end up with the guys I'm interested in - Lofton Jr, Roddy. Hefty guys with Mad Skillz. This is a fun SL team!

    Every single one of the guys interviewed during our practices has seemingly been awestruck by Shaedon or deemed him one of the best players on the floor.

    These guys are usually the first to know.

    Was BWill today:



    Greg also said Shaedon and Jabari have been really good.

    It’s legitimately pronounced Coburn. He’s Jamaican

    Nurk (and all traditional centers) is going to have issues guarding Chet on the perimeter

    Did Chet get hurt at the end of the first? Looked like a knee tweak
