He played well tonight I’m not looking for him to pass we looking for him to score. We need a dominate wing. If he can make open shots and play defense that’s what we need. I didn’t catch the game but I’m looking at his defense.

how can you say he played well tonight if you didnt catch the game?
he played like trash lmao and he cant play defense at the nba level...not yet.
horrendous shot selection. I've seldom seen a rookie second rounder get this green light in their first summer league game
he legit was playing AAU ball out there. 5/18. 4/13 from 3, 3 turnovers, 0 assists, 16 points, bad defense.
in reality he likely wont play very much if at all(outside of garbage time) for the cavs his rookie year, barring tons of injury.

He plays way too below the rim for me to fully enjoy him. His head is so far below the rim when he dunks.

His lack of athleticism reminds me of Julius hodge

What Jaylen Brown is today is what I thought Shabazz would be.

i wish dude the best. hopefully he utilizes what's around him to develop his game. he would have really benefitted from playing for a team that is high on development

Bro thought he was a lottery pic, nikka you should get 7 shots max

Skinny/weak player with short arms, below-average speed/athletic ability, and is a poor defender...The only thing Emoni had going for him was his height and weak competition (High school)........If he flames out in the NBA I wouldn't call him a bust, I'd just say he was overrated/overhyped........Emoni should focused on becoming a solid bench player...He could still have a good NBA career and make a lot on money if he humbled himself and put in the work.
