2023 NBA Draft Megathread

We should see some more rookie minutes after playing time was cleared for them at the trade deadline.

I don't think Atlanta did anything though and Bufkin definitely needs NBA minutes.
 
I guess Anthony Black is firmly out of the rotation in Orlando.
He has had an interesting season. First he was getting tiny minutes off the bench. Then he started getting more minutes off the bench. Then he became a starter with very low minutes. Then he was a starter with good rotation minutes. Then back to the bench with decent minutes. Then really low minutes off the bench. Now DNPCD's.
He has appeared in 45 of 49 total games. Started 29. Averaging 19.4 minutes per game.
What a roller coaster.
even when he was a starter getting good minutes, it was almost impressive how little he did out there. i'm an anthony black fan, so i don't say this to rip him, but his boxscores were pretty insane in terms of lack of numbers. in fact in the months of november and december which was basically the time frame you referenced above where he was a starter with rotation minutes... in november, in 21 mpg, he averaged 5, 2 and 1. In December, he averaged 6, 3 and 2 in 23 minutes a night. that's kinda crazy. give the guy credit for playing within himself, but it's hard to justify keeping a guy out there if they just aren't doing anything on the offensive end.

Yep I always noticed how little he actually did as well.

I'm betting he Hendricks could quite easily average 6, 3, and 2 in 23 minutes. Kind of seems like it would be hard not too

If I was an Atlanta fan I would be very irritated with Quin Snyder right now. The team is 7 games under .500, Kobe Bufkin has done more than enough in the Gleage to show he deserves a shot, and he still can't get minutes over Trent Forrest.
 
Hit the vape too hard after a loss
Yeah who knows. Someone on twitter joked that if he has the same rules Grizz have for Ja then that must have been something serious.

I kid though. They might go hard at him to make sure he understands he still has to toe the line.
