He looks a bit like the draft guy who fills in for Locke's podcast.

He's only played six games but Edgecombe is averaging 14 points 5 assists and shooting 28% from 3. Also a 68% FT shooter which doesn't bode well. I still like him as a prospect but to label him as the only potential superstar in the next draft is nuts.

Agreed. He's shooting near 46% from 3 this season and not sure if that even included last night's game. If turds like Cam Payne and Kevin Porter Jr are getting rotation minutes on playoff teams there should be value in Sexton. It seems too he is getting that shot up quicker, and obviously...

With Melton out for the season I saw Clarkson mentioned as a potential replacement target for Golden State.

Agreed. I think the frustration is starting to boil over for him. Lauri and Collin are the most tenured guys in the entire league who haven't made the playoffs yet. That has to be really, really frustrating for such a super competitive player esp when he will be due for another contract. At...

Lakers would love to get off DLo. He's apparently up to his old antics being toxic in the locker room. They could extend the asset a year by acquiring Collin and fill their bench scorer role. I still think a Kessler+Sexton deal to LA probably makes most sense for both teams. Jazz could just...

Also Lakers are basically only playing with 4 guys (LBJ, AD, Reaves, Knecht). They need to preserve their players' energy until they make a few trades. I can see them potentially having interest in a few Jazzmen (Kessler? Sexton?). DLo won't be there at the deadline that's for sure.

Agreed. KO and Flip are a bit similar but KO's game was mostly out at the 3 pt line and he could make them consistently if not defended. It would likely be a bit more clunky to fit Flip and Kessler on the floor together. That's the Jazz roster in a nutshell this season. None of the parts...

I think that might've been their intention but they don't have nearly enough draft capital/assets to trade for such a star player. AD and Lebron despite his age are both still playing like superstars which they also proved during the Olympics. Either they trade their picks for high end...

I believe he was a spot starter for Duke but this is how he played for Centennial HS in Corona, CA. My son was a grade ahead of him in HS but played for another local school. Donovan Dent also played for that Centennial team. They were fantastic pairing but McCain looked really special like...

I feel like they are wasting a lot of shots that could potentially be going to Brice (Juzang or fill in the name). Even if Clarkson does raise his value it won't be much..Maybe an expiring + protected SRP? They are losing games with JC so might as well give the minutes to the kids and see what...

Keyonte was shooting 32% from 3 entering this game mostly on the strength of 2 good shooting games. He shot 1 for 8 from 3 tonight. He had that very good game against the Bulls but basically only shoots well 1 out of every 5 games. He and Clarkson go a combined 3 for 19 from 3 tonight against...

I hope so but Keyonte doesn't have Donovan type athleticism.

Either way has it's merits.. Hendricks went to the G League last year after being the #9 pick in a stronger draft. He looked ready to make a jump this season before the injury. No telling if the G League played into that at all or if it was his work in the weight room. OTOH Jazz have alot...

Agreed Flip is clearly the better player at this point. He's looking like a real steal considering his draft slot. If they want to "start" Cody and limit his minutes to about 18 that's fine but he might blossom more if he were to play some G League getting heavy minutes where he can be the...

What skills does he possess that would make him a "fringe" All Star? I mean it would be great if that were the case. He's not shy to shoot off the dribble but he makes those shots at such a low %.

I'm resigned to it being 2 tank seasons unfortunately. Hopefully a miracle happens next offseason but not very optimistic. Ainge pulled off miracles in Boston but Utah is just another animal. Initially thought they could get lucky draft, someone like Flagg and use their warchest to bring in...

^Agreed. The body language and lack of hustle is a really bad entitled look for a 21 yo kid who hasn't proven anything yet at the NBA level. I tuned in for the 3rd quarter and immediately turned the game off after that play. It's pretty obvious the team has already given up 5 games into the...

I listened to most of it. When it comes to Collin I agree he would be a great 6th man on a playoff team such as Boston or Dallas. Unfortunately the Jazz do not have 5 good starters. Keyonte is the golden boy so I guess they are going to move heaven and earth to make him look good. Ironically...
