I think he needs to string together more decent games before we can call him really dependable. But he's trending up and consistently. _________________ Austin Reaves

I love how he recovered. Earlier in the season, if he started 1/6, he probably ends 1/6. Keep shooting baby goat |

He's probably showing as much progress for a 19 year old, that we can hope for, I'm sure the data will back up that fact. |

Well I meant more that we can depend on him to give us solid minutes and not be a deer in headlights that holds us back in any way like he was earlier in the season (and is a pretty good development for a 19-year old rookie). That doesn't mean he'll give us 18/6 every game, but he'll be a consistent contributor. |

Nice game by BI. He had his hands full defensively but he at least put forth a good effort. "He aint skeered." |

It's beyond lately in fact, 48% in his last 18, and 53% in his last 8. Major growth in this past 5 weeks or so.... Really happy to see this, hope is alive... |

His shot definitely looks better. Even after the whistle he's swishing jumpers. |

I know what you're getting at, but I still stand by what I said
He's having his first kinda okay month after several months of being terribad. Let's see him close out this season with the kind of progression he's had _________________ Austin Reaves

Looking confident. I'm curious to see what he physically looks like next year (if he isn't traded of course) |

I wouldn't necessarily say terribad. He was invisible and unassertive, while showing occasional flashes. When you combine Lou and Clarkson's usg% in the unit he was playing in, his lack of aggression made sense from a ball watching standpoint. Lou had to go for various reasons. His absence created a vacuum of opportunity for the youngsters. |

Smooooooooooth BI.
Kinda sucks because there maybe a few instances per game where if his body was more developed he could make a play. _________________ *sighs*

Hope he continues this play and finishes the season off strong. Give him some confidence going into the offseason. Spend a summer eating, bulking up, working on that shot, and training under Kobe, I'm very interested to see how he will look in year 2. |

If he had a more developed body, we would not have gotten him (insinuating that he is a better prospect than Simmons as he matures) |

I would. And the fact that he is no longer terribad and looking okay this month... that's a leap I prefer, anyway, if he can close out the season on this trajectory.
Also, he just needs to up that 3P% to continue his trend of increasing all his shooting percentages month by month _________________ Austin Reaves

I didn't even notice that he hit seven shots in a row until the media mentioned it on twitter. |
