Needs to be in the post and cleaning the glass.

If his team is running 5 out with him on the court, that coach needs to be fired.

What's the deal with this Scoot kid? I've seen some people say they'd draft him over Wemba but is that cats just trying too hard to go against the grain?

Can't wait for this game tomorrow

Imagine him and Chet what the fukk
Isn't Chet already out for the season? At some point, we need to recognize that people that large and thin aren't exactly going to be immediate stars and it's not due to lack of talent.

Dude was 17 years old making the G-League look foolish and doing stuff like this:


Not the best shooter, but many of the other intangibles are there.

pnr breakdown (timestamped):


But yeah, main thing is playing big competition much earlier than many other American prospects and playing well. Dude outshined many players who went 1st round in the 2022 draft who were on his team last year.

Big height mismatch between Scoot and the other point guard.

Wembanyama with 2 blocks already.

Wemby bringing the ball up showed the handle and the shakes.
