[Dumas] The Warriors will work out Chattanooga center, Jake Stephens on Wednesday. Stephens is 7”0 with a 7”10 wingspan and hit 45% of his threes the last two seasons. Exciting prospect who I personally covered while he was in high school.

How old is he and how many years of college did he play
This looks interesting
Two-way contract his ass right now Dunleavey
Go Mocs!
He can shoot that’s pretty interesting
Alright what’s the catch. Unplayable on PnR defense?
Impressive stats, over 2 blocks and 3 assists per game.
O.o
So this dude is a slowfoot. But he’s very good at the three things he does best. SHOOTING… Weakside blocks… and passing especially off aggressive closeouts. He’s kinda like a Davis Bertans/poverty Brook lol.
I remember looking at his stats and thinking “what is going on here”. Not a low post guy more a high post out guy.
But 22 pts 10 reb 3.5 ast 2.2 blk on 55/40/82 shooting… like he can REALLY shoot it. Was 2nd in Advanced Metric CRAM for a good chunk of the year.
Really shoot it..
95th percentile on all jumpshots
91st percentile on catch-and-shoots
I really wanna see creativity with these two way contracts this would be that. Dart at a board two-way contract… throw those darts eventually they’ll hit. I’d prefer Castleton or Sanago or a wing like Jordan Miller on TWC. But I get it he’ll be available cuz he’s older 23 and very slowfooted.
Just for context, James Wiseman’s wingspan is listed as 7’6
Very interesting. Hope he shows out and they take a flyer on him
Looks interesting but imo if I’m offloading a big contract I’m giving up whoever we take as collateral
I really have zero interest in projects to be honest.
watch this guy get dnp’d by kerr himself lmfao
Lol the day Bob leaves we are looking at big man.
For these young centers, what Im afraid of the most is health. Unless you’re like Zion (let’s categorize him as center for the sake of this discussion) who’s massive, you’re usually built more like Durant than, say, Steven Adams
Without bulking up, it’s easy to get hurt when you play down low. Injury -> no playing time
kerr with give him 0.1 mins per game
He’s a J and thats all the credentials we need
Can he set a good screen?
