I'm pretty resigned to the fact it's going to be a long season for Sexton which is fine considering this is a rebuild.
He's a kid that's easy to root for but is coming back from a serious meniscus and got injured again last night. They are clearly trying to change his entire game and you can see him overthinking on the court a bit. He looks really bought in defensively and is passing the ball in Hardy's system. His athleticism looks to be back to pre injury form which was one of my main concerns when they gave him that contract. He's a very good 41% career catch and shoot guy although the shooting hasn't been as good in the first few games. He's one of the few Jazzmen that can consistently get to the FT line.
Is he a long term piece for the Jazz? A future starter? A bench scorer like Clarkson has been the past few seasons? Will they try to build up his value and trade him down the line?
It's way too early to tell at this point.
