Never thought of that but that’s not a bad nickname, B. Cool.
Maybe if they extend Deni before the season starts and offer him a bigger role with bigger usage, it might contribute to him improving his shooting just as much, if not more, then doing reps. what I mean is CONFIDENCE. it works both ways. front office show they trust in him and give more ball handling and playmaking could be the thing that gives him a big push forward. when Deni is relaxed and confident imo he is a 36% from the 3 easy.
Did you see Devin Vassell's contract?. If we gauge by that, Deni is 1/2.🤷♂️ Deni needs to be the 6th man w/ more freedom.
LET DENI GET IN HIS BAG!!!!
big potential. needs to develop mental strength. he took someone to work on that. I think this year we will see some results of all the works he put
they should play Deni at the 4 for most min. and let him run offense ones on every few positions and in transition
Bilal at point guard gonna be so intriguing to watch
Deni would be a 15 10 and 5 a game player if Wes wasn’t a airheaded clown
I don’t think we resign Deni. We are projected to draft his replacement #1 overall in this years draft Ron holland so what’s the point of keeping him
Wes unseld jr is a awful coach he’s going to ruin this team and the development of the players
the guy is 18, too early to run the ball. but at a fast offense that runs all young guy can move the ball ones in a while. to play the 2 he must improve shooting and cutting
Honestly, l'm not a basketball expert when it comes to judging NBA players strong points and weakness in their game, but in watching the play of Demi, over the past few years, l don't think the Wizards are playing this guy the right way.
In looking at highlights of Demi when playing in euro games, he seems to be playing the position of a point forward. The ball is in his hands. He's pushing tempo and setting up the half court offense. When he's playing off the ball, in NBA games, he just seems to be a non factor, at times, offensively.. it's like he's not engaged in the offensive follow of the game.
Bottom line, to get the most out of Demi, he needs to be playing a point guard. I respectfully disagree that Demi can't play the point guard position, even though the wizards do have an array point guards.
