  1. International game so everything should be taken with a grain of salt BUT a few things that I took away from here was his willing to attack the smaller defender, not entirely sure how useful that will be given that he’s playing with a non shooting center and another big who isn’t the best shooter but u can clearly tell that he’s put on some needed muscle.

  2. He just fit in nicely on offense for the Cavs. Don’t do too much, especially when you have an excellent passer with the basketball in Garland on your team. Just knock down threes to make Austin Carr say that hilarious quote. Just another day closer until the Cavs open their season at Toronto, which should be really fun.

  3. Dude needs to be like a new generation of Peja Stojaković. Known down shooter when he gets it but can also put it on the floor a little too with utilizing his size against smaller defenders. Getting some post moves/faders can help with that as well. 85-90% from FT would be a good cherry on top.

    And then defensively. Can he improve enough I’d say with his foot speed on the outside and then just being OK ish in the paint because again he’s a big dude; he shouldn’t get punished often down low. That added muscle should help.

    Excited about this dude.
