    With Amen, not sure if he's our best passer. But he's definitely our worst defender and with the emergence of Jabari, that kinda makes Sengun expendable

    Christian Wood can hit 3s & be a lob threat, not sure you've watched him play. Defense isn't his strong suit, but he's better than Sengun

    What are you basing that on? I ask bc I don't know how good he can be after one game. I also don't know who our starting 3 will be so just curious where did you get the info to declare him the worst defender ?

    I watched every game last year. Teams target Sengun the most on iso's. Why? Because he's foul prone, and doesn't move his feet on switches

    Don't mean to start trouble but looking at the picture, if Dillon Brooks is 6'5 - 6'6, that would make Sengun 6'9 - 6'10

    Don't worry about him, a certain D-List member. I immediately put him to ignore list.

    You can tell he has worked on getting that explosion off the dribble and also finishing strong in the paint. Also noticed his dribble pull up jumper.

    Real question. Have we seen a more coherent offense in these last two summer league games than the last two seasons?

    Brooks comes up to Sengun's eyes or just below them. I'm 5'8" and my eyes are five inches from the top of my head. Sengun's head is undoubtedly bigger than mine. If Brooks is 6'5 - 6'6 then Sengun is 6'10 at the very minimum.

    I've watched him play plenty. The defense was the part I was speaking on, but he's also generally terrible at team offense as he's completely unwilling to do ANYTHING that doesn't show up on a stat sheet. If Luka can't bring out the best in that guy, it can't be done.

    A maximum of 6'10 and if he grew from last yr, he was 6'8 - 6'9.
