How bad/good is Cody Williams?

[jazznik]

Cody just plays with a slow rhythm. It hasn't been effective so far but I don't think he can go any faster, Its just kinda who he is.

Slow rhythm is not the root problem here. Joe Ingles played slow and was damn effective. Kawhi and Jokic are slow and deliberate and they one of the best basketball players alive.

Cody's problem is his general lack of skills. When you are not good at dribbling, shooting and finishing at the rim you can play lightning-fast and still be equally bad.

Unless we sit all our vets or trade them, I can't even see Cody getting any minutes at all.

Lauri and Ace will probably start. They each get 30 minutes. John Collins probably gets 22ish minutes. Walker gets 30. Flip and Hendricks will get minutes.

So do Brice and Cody trade DNP's every other game for the last of the minutes? Does Cody just spend the whole season in the g-league?

Cody was getting DNP's without Ace, so now what?

There will be plenty of injuries throughout the year that clear minutes and give him an opportunity. Of all the players to see in summer league he is probably outside of Ace the one I'm most interested in watching to see if he can give us a glimmer of hope offensively.
