If this means our chances at getting Giannis is big then this is a game changer.

Don’t think so, at all. He’s like Bonga raw but as a PF, and detrimentally skinny. Ingram length. Has a bit of an awkward gate. Has some potential skills. He’s like a raw Christian Wood but less long

He'll come to training camp and end up with the SB Lakers. With a little more experience he could develop into a decent player; overall a good signing (for more reasons than one).

Hopefully he gets to work with Handy, even if he’s with SBL. Lots of raw clay to work with.

Very deep level smarts there..

He gets a roster spot somehow we just have to watch the tampering pre signing for Big Bro

He can help his brother house search and tell him how awesome the weather is in LA in comparison every day

I've missed this kind of project player since we shipped away Bonga. Should be fun to follow.

Mavs gave up on the kid after one season. They had him on a two-way contract so it wasn't like what we had to do with trading away Bonga's contract for cap space. I see enough defensive potential worth giving him a look even if his brother doesn't come. That's what the G-League is supposed to be for.

Nice projects to work with and develop, THT (def and aoverall skill), Kostas (def and length) and Norvell (def and shooting). Seems like more pots tail than Wagner or Bonga or Svi.

No, so many better options to use the 2 way on. Crappy brothers have been given contracts for years, and I can't recall a single time that led to the good brother signing with the team. Just dumb.
