Let's not compare these guys anymore. Comparable athletically, but only one of them has heart
I think Edwards simply has more tangible basketball skills.
230>194 doesn't get knocked off his spot
Yeah he's got that body with a handle. Both are unique athletes and are mediocre shooters, but the comparisons seem to end there for me.
Edwards is enormously raw, but it's fun to think of what he might become. Gotta love 11 points on 7 shots in his first 13 NBA minutes. Plus, he worked hard on defense.

He did a whole lot of nothing in the first half. I don't know how Jarrett Culver doesn't get in the starting lineup sooner rather than later either at the expense of Layman or Josh Okogie.
I agree. At this point I'd say Culver instead of Layman. Simply put, Layman isn't very good. He should be an end-of bench-guy you have in your roster in case of injuries.

You're being kind, Cam. And the blown layup was embarrassing.
Still, he was a plus player in the first half, while our max PG was a minus.
How late was DLO for his COVID test and what time was it at. I mean I just took the dog outside to pee and it's nasty out there. I think a blizzard is an excuse.
