Like Vando, he came into last season out of NBA shape. He looks a lot better…against summer league talent…and here’s hoping he keeps getting better.
Hey Jamie! I was out of the country during the summer league, so I missed all the action—but I just saw that Koloko led the league in blocked shots! That’s seriously impressive and has me hyped about his development. I’d love to hear what you like about his game. What stood out to you most? If anyone’s got thoughts or insights, please share—I’m all ears!
He looked solid against Summer League level talent. Same basic package (long, nimble, athletic) but looked more sure of himself, especially on defense. A lot like a younger, lighter Hayes. Nothing to get too pumped about, he’s still a 2 way guy, but a solid 3rd option at center, should it come to it for a stretch.
Defense first, offensive game still limited to paint touches and hustle plays.
If I’m being honest, Bronny was the stand out of our team and he looked good…against Summer League teams. Knecht looked like he’s in his head and needs an escape hatch. Bazely looked like he’s could take Shake’s spot until he went down. Swider is a one-trick pony and that trick is also streaky.
Thanks for the excellent response, Jamie.
