Green and Suggs should be in the mix, Cade will get it together but probably not put up big numbers. Sengun will be great but probably won't get enough minutes for ROY consideration.
Green simply because the G-League is too strong. I hope G-League gets even more traction so all star caliber players would even be willing to go there if they are coming back from a long term injury.
On the other hand...We'll see how the Rockets play it, but I'm assuming that they're going to extract maximum value out of EG. Personally, I wouldn't wait until the deadline with him though. Get Eric up to top form, and move him before he gets hurt again. Plus this opens up more minutes for Green. ... and the campaign for ROY. Tilman's about "building brands" ...right? While we're not going to win a lot of games, the ROY would be a nice feather in the cap of a rebuild. We already know this kid's gonna be ONE of our cornerstones.
I went with Suggs, only because the Rockets seem to have more depth at the guard sport so I think Green won’t get the same minutes. Green made lead all rookies in scoring, regardless. It’s really guesswork at this stage for me, though.
Emoni Bates has reclassified to the 2021 class and is considering skipping college for the GLeague. With the paydays of 500K it will only entice more talented high school kids to forego college if professional basketball player is what they want as far as career.
Green will win - he will lead rookies in scoring and will definitely be a frequent highlight reel guy - plus he is essentially the basketball equivalent of a social media “influencer”. His favorability will just be much higher than the other guys.
Everyone seems to be sleeping on Sengun. This dude has been dominating men in Turkey. There is 0 chance he won't get minutes over Theis. He may average 20-10 this year.
Matthew Hurt. You can see how it all will play out. Right now, he's pretending to be intimidated and outmatched on the court. But when the games count, you'll see him turn into Kevin freaking Garnett baby. Just watch.
