With Trip and Lauri out, I’m hoping to see massive opportunities for Key, Darryn and Ace obviously, would love to see Josh Green and Mo Bamba in the starting lineup until Nurkic is back and only Okogie, Brice and Hayes off the bench to play major minutes
Not great but far from worst case scenario, heal up trip! 💜💜💜
Utah Jazz star Jaren Jackson Jr. has sustained a torn MCL in his right knee and will be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks, sources tell me and @BannedMacMahon. Jackson will not require surgery.
As ugly as that Jazz game got at times last night…. If we make 2 more 3s we win the game … We outrebounded Memphis 49/42, had 1 less turnover and had 1 more field goal made …. We shoot 12/33 instead of 10/33 and we are 2-2 beating a team that embarrassed us without our 2 stars

I could have shown examples of so many players who struggled to start their first NBA season too. It's extremely common.
So maybe it's time to pump the brakes and stop overreacting to small sample sizes?
Just a thought.

Ace Bailey hooping like a vet…
13.0-62.3 TS%-8.5 REB-1.8 BLK
Commitment to his role, especially the defensive end is beautiful. Genuinely imposing weakside, transition, and 1v1 shot blocker. Silky shotmaking. Hitting glass. Vertical spacing. Mature ball
