Yep. With a team with a lot of injury prone players, I would have liked our 11-14 to show something this summer. That does not mean they can’t turn into something but minott not progressing is concerning

The other implication it has is if we wanted to make a big move with Rudy or KAT, I am far less confident in "the second timeline" frontline guys being ready to fill in bigger roles.

I think we’re seeing part of why TC seems committed to keeping both Rudy and KAT next season. Just watching their G-League highlights indicated to me that we couldn’t depend on Minott or Miller next season even though they both had very good G-League stats. They’re both too raw. But they’re both physically gifted and appear to have high-octane motors and lots of competitive drive. I know, so did Okogie. So no doubt both of them could end up being nothing more than shiny objects as Cool likes to say and we may find a year or two from now that there’s nothing behind the shine. But right now it’s way too early to worry about either one. Let’s see what they look like after another 20 G-League games before we start sounding any alarm bells.

Clippers might have a good one if summer league means anything, but I think we get these every summer. Who remembers Josh Shelby?
