Summer League Thread

From the team's press release for what it's worth: "The team’s Summer League roster is headlined by Ochai Agbaji, Luka Šamanić, and Vernon Carey Jr., as well as Utah’s 2023 first round draft picks Taylor Hendricks (No. 9), Keyonte George (No.16), and Brice Sensabaugh (No.28)."

Coming into his senior season, Ross was named to the Preseason All-WCC team.[19] On November 27, 2020, he became Pepperdine's all-time leading scorer while scoring 33 points in a 107–98 triple overtime loss to UCLA.[20] Ross scored his 2,000th career point in a loss to Gonzaga on January 30, 2021.[21] He averaged 17.5 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 7.7 assists per game, leading the Waves to their first College Basketball Invitational Championship.[22]

for me taevion kinsey, by far. also, it's crazy how young samanic is still. seems like he's been around forever, yet he's the age of a college senior.

Just watched some of his dunk highlights. Ok, it's now a tie between Kinsey and Hauser

One thing I found interesting was that Brice Sensabaugh is listed as a G/F. . . which means the Jazz see him as a 2/3 in lineups. So, not a PF despite the “bulk”.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Let the Hunger Games begin. Juzang and Vernon Carey Jr. resurface. Every guy listed had a solid college career. I suspect most of these guys will play for the Stars and the competition for the two two ways will be intense. I will be interested to see how the five year college guys will match up against our one and done draft picks.

I’m pretty sure the NBA added another 2-way contract for each team. So, they should all be competing for 3 spots.

there is no question he's a 2/3. it's what he was at tOSU - it's just what he is. he is 100% wing and always has been. yeah, he's bulky, but he's 6'5 and he's not a defender. you can make a pj tucker type a 4 because he's a great defensive player. but sensabaugh is 100% wing both in his skillset and his size.

Hauser already has one so only two left

I agree. It’s just been tossed around here that he might be best fit as a 4, but the Jazz clearly see him as a wing.

Well isn't that a shocking development?

Utah: Keyonte George, Taylor Hendricks, Ochai Agbaji

OKC: Chet Holmgren, Cason Wallace

Memphis: GG Jackson

Philadelphia: who cares...

Council, TSmith and Azu definitely would have gotten drafted in most drafts. Hell Memphis should have taken Council late not Biberovic whoever that is.

what made you think he was a pf smh the injuries and weight are the reason he slid to us. He is an on ball creator with a good enough shot to play off ball some. But he is a long ways away from being more than another THT
