[Givony] On Nunez: The 6’5 Spanish guard is arguably the best pick-and-roll playmaker in this class; an absolute magician with the ball who makes creative, decisive reads and picks apart defenses with spectacular vision and flair.

    Not a fan of the pick but the man can absolutely pass i’ll give him that.

    I don’t know anything about him but this two minute clip has me sold. Hopefully we get a lot of Juan-to-#1 oops

    I don’t love that he can’t shoot, but he’s not entirely dissimilar from Topic, but with functioning ACLs and 24 spots lower.

    Dude can certainly sling unorthodox and creative passes.

    Nice. He can get Wemby the ball and assists!

    Watching those highlights gives me Stockton vibes.

    … Just needs a jumpshot. I’m tired chief.

    I am fine having him command the second unit until he becomes a decent shooter. If I remember correctly we had a lefty doing that job for a while with good results.

    Hallelujah! Someone who can pass the ball to Wemby

    I imagine a PATFO meeting like the “He gets on base” one from Moneyball.

    Pitt: “Nunez gets it to Wemby an awful lot, for someone in the second round”

    “But he cannot shoot! Why do you like him?”

    *Pitt points at Jonah Hill “He gets it to Wemby”

    His shot doesn’t look broken, though it is a slow release but has decent arc, lower body and ball rotation. His 3pt percentage is fine but his career FT on 90 attempts is a shocking 57% Kinda confused what to think tbh

    I mean he’s the perfect pg for Wemby IF he can learn to get to the rim and/or develop a shot.

    If he can’t shoot or finish teams will just play off him and continue to double Wemby. Giddey and Simmons are examples of players who teams didn’t respect offensively but are decent play makers. And both of them can actually get tot the rim. Nunez I would say is a better passer but worse finisher.

    Now if he can develop somewhat of a nice shot or finish at the rim, then he’ll become a serious weapon when in tandem with Wemby.
