Hoping he can soak up 5-10 minutes and not get killed.

I would like him to feature as part of the regular season rotation.
Ideally I would want to see 8 – 12 energy minutes as DJJ & Batman sit.
If the defense is solid like we’ve drafted him for, we could tolerate a 40% FG percentage.

Hit the open NBA three with regularity.
At least come close, maybe 35% if there’s enough sample size, which would be a sign he’s seeing the floor.
Barring that, show near 40% in the G league.

A serviceble role player. You cant have enough of wing defenders, especially his type who are lengthy. The raptors game we have seen recently proved this. he doesn’t have to make a lot of points. Just have to make less errors, switch properly, and learn to do picks for ky and luka.

Decent role player

5-10 minutes as a defensive specialist with length, hustle plays, offensively just sit his ass in the corner and hope he can hit them above 30%. Iirc wasn’t he insane from the corner in college? I think he definitely has a role right now just as a lengthy hustle curveball to throw out when you need length and a spark

Some good garbage time maybe some gleague

2nd coming of DFS but better.

semi-related .. missed the last game. how dod OMax look in his minutes?
AdmiralSnackbar816
Steady growth. We lucked out with Lively being as useful this early as he is. But I think OMax understands that he brings a skill set to this team that we lack, even though he hasn’t been immediately successful. If he can start to do some of the little things better than the players above him, he’ll get on the court.

a few games in the regular season where he shows promise for the future/next season would have me happy. The best case is he can give us 8-12 minutes and take Maxi’s spot in the rotation.
Luminous-Savior
Get his footwork down on defense to be more under control. Be doing well enough that Maxi never plays.
Active_Page_3886
No expectations for this season at the NBA level. I’d honestly just be happy if he stays healthy and dominates in the G-League
We_hitt_a_boat
10-12 quality min off the bench. Also for someone to help him with his shot. Whoever helped DoeDoe fix his shot needs to spend some time with OMax and he’ll be dangerous.

End of the season?!
Nah, he should be ready at deadline to play at least spot 10 minutes because maxi definitely will be traded

I need him to take Maxi’s minute at the 4 and be the main back up of Grant.

A guy who can have a solid 20 minutes in a playoff game.

Hopefully in the mix rotation. He could be DFS in the making if he develops the corner three.

I hope he can be a role player. Play 10-15 minutes a night . Provide good defense ,energy

Tbh, at this point I have no idea what to expect from OMax. Just hoping to see some improvement in all areas, and some flashes of legit NBA abilities.
I also hope he gets to handle the ball a decent amount and is encouraged to develop his offensive game off the dribble, i.e. driving into the paint.

My hope is basically Frank’s stats from our western conf final run. 4/2/2. About 50% shooting. Solid defense.
