Trance misses out on second team by just one point, damn
Brandin made First Team – Nice!
Sorry to see Trayce didn’t make it, but I can’t really argue with those who were included. I think that if there had been a third team, he’s be there, and that’s pretty good for a #57 Pick.
Pretty amazing achievement for Podz
Happy for Podz man he definitely earned it this season
I’m so happy!!!! Go Podzzzzzz
Props to Kerr for realizing Podz was a rotational piece early on in the season. He was a little late realizing the same about TJD. We’d have 2 rookies on the all-rookie teams and maybe a couple more wins as well.
Regardless, I’m excited to see both these guys take a leap next season and earn more opportunities!
Very happy for Pod
Hopefully Podz improves next season, I’m looking forward to improved shooting and quicker trigger
Good job Podz.
Can’t believe TJD lost out to GG Jackson but wished Kerr gave him more minutes
This award is mixed to me. It basically means you were a top 10 rookie, but 4 out of 10 of these players were already top 10 picks, and should be EXPECTED to be one of the best 10 rookies in the league.
Podz is a nice surprise, but he was a 19th pick, which means he played like a top 10 pick this year. Better then projected. Not a massive deal honestly, but still a nice reward for his effort. Hope he makes some big strides this off season, were gonna need them.
TJD making it would have been a huge deal. A 58th pick playing like a top 10 pick his rookie year? Shame he didnt get it.
TJD one point away 💔
Trace missing 2nd team by 1 point kinda blows.
But he beat a top 5 lotto pick, so that’s good.
The frogurt is also cursed.
MIKE DUN GONNA COOK AGAIN WITH THAT 2ND ROUND DRAFT PICK
CALLIN IT
Now comes the hard part – sophomore year. Does Podz take a step forward, a step back, or is this his plateau? If nothing else, he’s gotta get the free throw percentage way up – kid can make 3s, no reason he shouldn’t be making 80-90% fts.
TJD just missing the second team because dudes were voting for GG Jackson for the first team. He was good but first team? SMH
That’s what we get for letting GG and his G-squad cook us in March smh
Podz needs to watch Mike Conley tapes. I think that’s his ceiling
Brandin “Draw and Kick” Podziemski
Nice job Brandin!
It was a joy to watch you work this year!
Keep absorbing all that good stuff from Steph and the Vets because your future is bright!
I hope we keep Pod as long as possible. I love the kid.
Yeah Podz
Congrats!
No Trayce?
Wow. Congratulations to Podz. I think he came out of nowhere with his tenacity
