Dok gets seriously injured and Butler and Hughes look really, really bad.
Who knows, maybe all the other teams that passed on Butler knew something we didn't. At least he only cost us a 2nd. Oh and he'll cost us another 2nd later when we try to offload him.
But actually as ****** as we've been playing I think we should just start the kid. Couldn't be that much worse.

Butler looked like he really did not want to be playing with the Stars last night. Hughes hustled and just stunk. About the only Stars player that looked decent was Carsen Edwards and he played hard.

How’s Fitts doing?

DNP with both the Stars and Jazz. He's done great in his couple of appearances down there.
Butler will look better when he's surrounded by guys who can play. You could put Mike Conley on that Stars team, and he'd probably struggle. Butler needs a spaced floor so he can go one-on-one and make a play, or so he can be the 3rd or 4th scoring option.

The Bad News Stars did not disappoint this afternoon losing to the Clips GLeaguers by over 30 points. Fitts with 20 points 7 boards and -36 in the box. Carsen Edwards and Derrick Alson had 18 points each for the Stars. Brandon Boston Jr. had 46 points for the Clipps and former Jazz summer leaguer George King had 20 points on 10 shots. No Butler, Hughes and obviously Dok for the Stars. Some folks for the Stars decided not to play D.
Yeeeeesh.
I liked Brandon Boston in the mid-late 2nd round last draft. He's got a lot of upside, obviously. He shot 9/12 from 3pt today. Clippers just bought a pick and drafted him at #51.
For a team that spent 5 or 6 years trying to develop Dante Exum, picking up BJ Boston should have been a no-brainer.

It makes you wonder why one of our three 2nds in 2019 didn't pan out.
Here's Brandon Boston -- 6'6" guard with a 6'11" wingspan. Not sure how you miss this as a late 2nd-rd pick. He practically looks like a young Shaun Livingston out here.
