Yooo I like this one. Kid was hyped in Creighton and was a potential lottery pick just a few years ago. Perfect low risk high reward signing.
Well, in his first game as a pro he scored 2 points in 4 minutes...that's like almost 30 points projected to 48 minutes...
Hope he becomes good enough that we don’t have to go after a backup center in free agency this offseason.
Great, another 3-point shooting center - hopefully he's more accurate than Cousins. Looks Vlade Divac-esque with those passing skills - actually a better and more willing passer than J. Wall. Point-Center? Well, good luck with getting J. Wall to pass to you.
Bit stiff but beggars can't be choosers. And Rockets are definitely begging right now, scraping bottom of FA barrel instead of making a trade. But will take Patton over crippled Cousins. Any day.
On 2nd thought, send Patton to Vipers first so he can learn to play right way and gain chemistry with the true future Rockets building blocks. Vipers will actually use him properly. Then he can come up with KPJ, KJM and Armoni.
