lol. not for a guy who has already shown he can dominate the g league. dominating more future g leaguers doesn't change anything.
Yeah, completely disagree again. The combine scrimmages have categorically shown to boost your stock. Miller isnt a guaranteed top 20 guy. He could have changed that today.

His agent likely got intel that he is a lock to go in the teens. No need to play and risk injury.

when he's good, he's good. when he's bad, he effing sucks. that's always been the problem with wong - he's wildly inconsistent. he had games this season of 1-7 FGs, 1-11, 1-8, 2-8, 1-9, 1-10. plenty of other poor shooting games (like anybody), but that's a more than a handful of games where he couldn't throw the ball in the ocean and was completely useless. but then he also had games where he scored 27, 25, 36, 27. i wanted to like him all season then he kept throwing up these complete stinkers and i just couldn't come around.

give me one example of these scrimmages boosting the stock of a top prospect who was great over the course of an entire g league season.
Also think there is a lot of value to pick up basketball setting to see who looks comfortable in a new setting. Basketball IQ really shines through in these settings. Cream rises to the top.
Even though Bailey didnt have a great first half, I would say he left a good impression on me just with his pace and feel for the game. And now he's starting to score in the 2nd half.

Define top prospect to me first and I'll let you know.

a guy in the conversation for top 20 and possibly lottery. i wish you luck.
Jalen Williams last year, that was easy.
lmfao, Isaiah Wong sounds like he wears a pocket protector.
