No shit but it hasn't hurt him nearly as much as you were saying it would. Of course a 19 year old has to get bigger and stronger. Same for Ant.
No doubt McDaniels needs to get stronger and obviously he will like all teenagers. But as Cool noted, his length, athleticism and smarts have stopped his lack of bulk from hurting him as much as you might expect. On that play, his length and ability to stay on his feet and stay on him clearly bothered Siakam just enough to stop Siakam from dunking and get him a bit off on his layup.

I wonder if playing in Florida really gives him anxiety

I think KAT needs a few more games to get his legs, feel and rhythm totally back. It was great to see Ricky have a good game.

Agreed think it's everything involved. This is a good team if they get this Rubio. This Rubio moves the needle. Hopefully it continues
I was going to make thread but I'll put this here about Rubio.
I personally have sister who plays D3 basketball. She's just came back from
having Covid. She's a 30min + player per game. She had a back to back games this weekend and she only could go about 20-25 mins in each game. I don't think we don't give enough credence on how much Covid might've been effecting Rubio.
I know how my sister plays she's a step slower right now and you can tell the lungs are not the same right now. I'm assuming if it can effect a 20 year old girl it can effect a grown adult even more.
