I know. His new speed never translated to guarding 4s either. Its weird. His skills are unique but arent complimentary to the other bigs on our roster.

Statistically, he was having a break out year in Utah this season. But he was a bit buried with all the wings they had. Utah people said they didn't want to give him up, but the salary matching in the trade, plus his RFA status made him the guy.

Yeah you think they would have showcased him a bit more. Our gain ultimately. He's a keeper for sure if he keeps playing like this.

Sometimes it's about opportunity. Beasley was in the same ballpark when we traded for him a couple years ago and eventually played well enough to get good pay day.

We take so many bad shots. Love Ant when he makes them but hate him when he doesn't but that last 3pt shot was example of dumb shot a no pass 3pt shot out of a defensive stop. Long rebound turns into easy corner three for the other team.
