Uncommon Grizzlies offseason W
Mixed feelings
Rather have him spend the summer working on his passing and handles than bullying people far less athletic than him in the paint.
Think this will be good for him. Hope he gets a good amount of playing time. Usually doing team USA has had benefits for young players hope he can take all the stuff in stride
I hope JJJ knows you only get five fouls in FIBA (jk jk jk)
Really intriguing if we get some JJJ starting 5 lineups. Should definitely with the current group but they can still add someone. Would be the first time I have ever watched FIBA.
Well deserved. Would a healthy Des play for USA or Nigeria? He’d be a perfect fit on this squad.
Ofc the dpoy got in
Jaren boutta average 7 blocks a game with the FIBA rules lmfao
Gonna need that jersey desperately
why does ‘FIBA’ look like a ‘joe’ or ‘ligma’ gotcha
He is going to play against Santi!
