I bet he looked like a Power Forward, right!?
It's easy to forget how big these guys are compared to the average person. Clark does look like a guy that is bigger than you would expect. #20 for the Nuggets was just out in the concourse knees wrapped in ice chatting with someone. He did not look particularly big. Lol
He looked like the NBA 3-point line is beyond his range. Way too soon to make a judgment but that’s the way it looked tonight.WildWolf2813 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 11, 2026 8:33 pmI'm not gonna roast him tonight when he's fresh off signing.Lipoli390 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 11, 2026 8:21 pm Isaiah’s shooting looks absolutely horrible. Watching him tonight you’d never know his signature skill coming out of college was three-point shooting. He’s defended well and shown a dribble penetration ability I didn’t know he had. But wow his shooting is awful.
But I've never been a believer of his jumper translating.
Were most of the shots actually short?Lipoli390 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 11, 2026 9:38 pmHe looked like the NBA 3-point line is beyond his range.

He can be a really good player for us if he can hit those at a decent clip, if not he won't play. We gambled a bit on his contract, but so did he. Could be good value for us and he still makes top .01% money compared to the avg person.
He's not too far off. Made 43% of his 3s in Year 1 and 33% in Year 2. He made 38% in a decent sample of G-League games. So I don't think it's some delusional homer fan hope that he can become a decent catch and shoot 3-point shooter.Wolvesfan21 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 12, 2026 9:11 amHe can be a really good player for us if he can hit those at a decent clip, if not he won't play.

Agree but, I'm trying to not be too much of a homer cause every time I get too homerish I get let down it seems. I'll just say overal I feel like the gamble we took on him is pretty fair. He might suck but he might be good. Even keel guy here.Q-is-here wrote: ↑Sun Jul 12, 2026 9:17 amHe's not too far off. Made 43% of his 3s in Year 1 and 33% in Year 2.
