I guess I’ll be bumping this thread a lot throughout the season :youngsabo:

Again, no team that’s looking to win is playing him big minutes and giving him all these shots. Volume scorers who don’t pass and provide zero value other than scoring don’t have a lot of rope in the NBA these days.

I don’t think he has one assist so far in SL.

Played great today. Can't deny it.

Take that 4yr deal and run with it if offered.
He can shoot, no one is denying that. He’s gonna have to learn to play off ball and be a role player if he wants to be in the NBA. That’s quite a different skill set than what he currently brings to the table. A long stint in the G league is probably best for him.

I believe he’s also averaging like 5+ rebounds

Nobody’s playing emoni to run the point

He’s gonna come in, get buckets. Exploit mismatches and disrupt

He’ll always be 6’9 with a Jumper and that’s valuable in the NBA at the most surface level

Emoni does the small Intangibles on the nBA level so far.
Imo that would have been his quality that is judged the most and imoni has done a great job at that the most. Plus converting under duress. Or in the fray and using his imaginative play to execute under duress as well.

Looks poised and ready from his performance so far.

He's already proved he can do this, even did so in his latest game :manny:
