This is my 1st game I've watch. He likes to let it fly. But they are going in.

I'm liking Ried

Martin got a little "he's on fire!!!!" Shot selection but he had a heck of a stretch there.

Naz Reid...dude is shooting it like it's nothing. His shot looks better than it did in college.

Okogie is such a trainwreck offensively.

He did hit an open 3 though

If Naz Ried wants he will be a NBA player possibly a good one

I think the key for Reid eventually making it as a rotation big is staying healthy and staying fit. He obviously has the size and strength to bang with guys in the paint and then to be able to step out like that with such a consistent shot is very compelling. But he seems a step slow at times and just doesn't look in great shape. That doesn't cut it these days at the next level.

He's Corey Brewer Part II right now. Makes a few highlight reel plays per game and hustles his ass off, but also gets very out of control on offense.

Except I think Okogie is more of a legit defender. Brewer became an elite steals guy though.

I've seen enough if Terrell. My wife and I have dubbed him the black hole.

Barry Brown hasn't been as good in this game. McLaughlin is kinda crafty and he is putting forth the effort on D.

Murphy putting in some work. Interesting that they are saying on the broadcast he was creating buzz in camp playing well. I hadn't heard that. His shot continues to look pretty good.

I am super disappointed in Okogie. No offensive improvement at all.

Jordan McLaughlin has totally won me over with his great handle, quickness and high basketball IQ. I'm embarrassed by my initial negative reaction to him. I'm serious when I say I'd like to see him get a 2-way contract from us.
