Damn Elijah was out there on a construction site with all them bricks. That shot selection and efficiency gone have to get better but it was only game 1 for him and he did it in conference play which definitely ain’t easy


Algorithm kept showing the 360 lay up

Why he got so many shots

I've not been seeing him on mocks but currently wizards in the top 8, we got a pick at 30, we have four second rounders. I'll be happy if we add Alijah and Dash Daniels. Alijah will get Gil around, Gil loves Trae, John Wall is around. To have John, Gil and Trae in the building invested in this new build will tie the last 20 years together. Hell Beal can come back and retire for cheap.

he's only played 5 games and got thrown right into conference play without getting his feet wet, let him at least play 10 games to see where he's at

Good for him.

The issue remains the same tho: he isn’t talented enough, or can create enough of a mismatch, that merits him getting the number of shots he wants. In HS sure. College, probably not but they defer bc of his name. Nba? Hell no

Even in that game winner there’s a man draped all over him.

It’s like a possession receiver who can’t create separation but gets contested catches. Great for his stats, but inefficient for your offense

I wouldn’t take things too seriously yet, I doubt he’s 100%. You’ll know more next year
