Jazz Vs Mavericks Summer League Highlights

Throwing my opinion in now... I think Collier is the steal of this draft.

(this opinion may be based on highlight videos of summer league)
He’s already the best passing rookie we’ve had since…. I dunno…. I wanna say Stockton?

That pass at 3.36 to Flip was special.

Then just the simple dime to Bazely at 7.50.

Takes a certain kind of creativity and skill to orchestrate those.

Filipowski is a better passer than Collier....
 
Collier's strengths and weaknesses on display last night.

Makes quick, mostly good decisions; moves the ball in the half court; pushes the ball off defensive rebounds; communicates and directs the team on O; competes on D.

Not a ton of explosiveness at the rim; pull-up 18-footers not a great fallback option in short shot clock situations; struggling getting around screens (not a big deal at this point).

I like that he wants to be a PG. He has a lot of talent, but he's kind of an underwhelming passer in terms of accuracy. Maybe that's just a product of SL (not knowing teammates well, not having an offensive system to play within), but it was on display at USC as well.

The thing to be somewhat optimistic about is that his shot doesn't look bad. Hes had some bad misses, but he's shot well enough to be guarded.
 
It feels good to see Cody and Flip show a little bit of what they can do. If Cody can put on 10-15 pounds of muscle over the next few years it will make all the difference in the world for him to get to his spots and move with a little more aggressiveness.
