    Agree. Billups should play Yang like how Jokic is used in Denver. Let's see if this Chinese Jokic thing is for real (because SL competition is the litmus test)

    Yeah, I watched his 2025 tournament highlights the other night. He already has NBA range beyond the arc. I know he has his critics, but his role will be different in the NBA. I think he has the potential to be a solid scorer off the bench.

    I believe Rupert could be special. He works so hard. Excited to see him getting some heavy minutes

    This kid Love is the type of player that could put up big numbers in this type of run and gun environment. #QyntelWoodsStyle

    It’s good for the fringe players fighting for a contract. Jabari Walker got a nice contract from us because of a strong summer league.
