Nice job tonight. He’s getting more comfortable.

He’s finally settling in. His first few outings were really rough, he was hitting glass before the rim on some of those shots. But his last few times out he’s looked more like Summer League Svi.

He’s also a pretty talented passer.. Along with his athleticism and shooting he could really be a player

Svi now up to 37.5 3pt% this season, and 50% over the last 5 games (9/18).

His shot is pure. He has a chance at being a better version of Korver.

Svi starting to look more comfortable out there. Nice job by the players and coaching staff bringing him along. His shot is real. Not bad in other areas either.

He plays small on the defensive end and is slow to react to NBA quickness. A little more strength and experience will help him there.

Yeah, the thing about shooters is that it takes them a little to get up to NBA speed, so they aren't rushing things, etc, they can get into a rhythm.

He's starting to come into that point. that's a very good thing.

He's gonna be okay

If we get our max guy, he will probably have a spot in the rotation next year. Glad he's able to get some real burn this season.

I LOVED when he attacked the closeout and went hard to the rim like he wanted to take someone's head off, showing he's more than just a shooter. Sasha would never.

Nice to have bench shooters

Some shooters just have an aesthetically beautiful shot when it goes in. Svi's shot has a nice arc and just looks so juicy when it goes through the net. Don't know how to describe it but it just looks buttery smooth and barely touches the net.

That alley oop was pretty impressive. I knew he could throw down, but man, it looked like his head wasn't that far below rim level.

His passing is underrated.
