    Sengun is lowkey making the next harden type move. Hes making a living barreling down the paint and falling forward into fouls.

    Sengun played like 1st team All-NBA at an MVP level tonight. His whole team let him down in key moments.

    Reed and Tari sold completely. Sad!

    People say how Euroleague gave him confidence.

    I'm more certain it was the organization finally making it known they believe in him more than other high draft picks who never deserved what they were given.

    All the talk about some garbage shooting guard who can't shoot, needing confidence to be better. I've said repeatedly why are people ignoring the blatantly better player also potentially relying on confidence to be better?

    Shame one of the other original Sengun OGs isnt here to see benefits of their constant rallying.

    It’s even worse to say this as SGA is foul baiting the entire game

    He balled out in an all around game. FIBA Sengun is real, he might have taken the leap from all star to superstar. Love to see it.

    Sengun was absolutely spectacular tonight. Took him a minute to get going, but once he did he was the best player on the court. He deserved a win for that effort.

    Literally Scola-like performance with 5 threes.

    Literally.

    Thank you Alpy. I asked for you to improve your 3's and you delivered. Next up, fadeaway middie.

    I'd bring in Mike Malone as an assistant coach specifically to unlock Sengun's full potential. Udoka clearly needs offensive system expertise.
