Yea, there was no reason for this kid to get WORSE year over year. His confidence is shot and he needs to be shot out of a cannon and onto a team with zero stakes.
Hes had his position taken by: Javonte Green, Jalen Smith, Matas Buselis, Isaac Okoro, and now Leonard Miller who was a 2nd rounder.
His rookie year screamed potential. I don't know if its true statistically, but his best month was December 2023 into January 24 where he was putting it all together...then he had the foot injury. Been an 8 pack of buns every since. I wanted him to work out but it's just not happening. It's one thing to suck, it's another to seemingly not give a fukk that you have been hoe'd by people with less physical upside constantly. People may disagree, but his physical attributes, outside of height in the case of Matas, is some freaky shyt that should make for a baller ass athlete. He must not truly like basketball enough.
His entire tenure has been Friday Night Death Slot after the 5th game of his second year when Mitchell Robinson wacked him and he broke his hand. Disappointing, and not even worked up enough to care if he is moved. Just bury him on the bench and lets focus on the future.
