Earn his spot ? Hah I think soon he will be lider.
I don’t think you need to worry , he will be a huge part of the rotation immediately.
Feel better soon, Matt! 🙏
I don't think Trey Lyles is going to be the primary backup at the center position, JaVale will be the one.
Its the defense. He looked pretty bad trying to defend and I'm sure Mike was anticipating that based on what he'd seen up to that point
Even if Sasha isn't in the planned top ten on the team, he could still jump in when other's shots are not falling. He could be the "In case of bad shooting, break glass!" player. Offense is not the problem, unless it is! Then Sasha.
He's so much more than just Euroleague MVP. Sasha already play with a lot ex or current NBA players in his career. Result? 40+ awards in four countries. I'm not worried about him.
I’m thinking fox, monk, Barnes, vezenkov, McGee will be favorable stagger rotation to maximize vezzy but idk we will see.
What is the point of signing euroleague's MVP and then question his abilities? Sasha is a 30point 10 rebound player, easily. Sure his defensive skills need some work, but 3rd unit in rotation? Come on…
I think Keegan and domas together is more necessary for Keegan’s development. To get the most from vezzy I think the Kentucky boys in rotation with him will help.
Vezzy at 4 and domas at 5 might be too much defensive liability but idk maybe 🤔
The definitely could use another big guy grabbing boards in that 2nd unit… if he can be a scoring rebounder while learning the defense i still think that would me more valuable than what all the other defenders not named davion, monk and maybe mcgee bring to the table, since they do different things… but none of these other guys are beyond the pale defenders… but we need boards.
Coach Brown is the type of coach that treats the best players on the team the same as the last bench player why would he change for this rookie?
Malik is such a smart ass 😂😂😂😂
