    The poor Suns.
    The let go of this automatic scorer who also plays defence.

    I'm sure anytime Okogie scores 28 for us, we get a win

    I wasn't a fan of the signing, but I have been surprised. He reminds me of Luc Mbah Moute in 2018.

    Does Okogie make Sengun expendable? If so...;)

    He is the Franchise Borderliner.

    The Rockets make every scrub a bonafide player except Jalen, KPJ and Cam Whitmore.

    I want to be apart of the newest found love for a player…

    I am hoping he retires in Rocket Red. We will need to save up cap space for his next contract, we can’t keep them all but he is the best option. Wish coach would run the offense through him to take advantage of his talent. It’s amazing how Stone keeps adding to the already great defensive minded TEAM.


    How did I do?

    Okogie has made Kelvin Olynky obsolete

    Okogie gives us quite a bit more than Dillon Brooks without the theatrics. He draws fouls, plays hard physical D, can play at and above the rim, and knows his role in the offense. For short stretches, he can even impact the game on offense. And when he's out there with DFS, we are going to look terrific.

    I miss his signature Scola® dunks and dimes. Literally the playmaker Scola was.

    Great thread. What happened the last time our franchise player was from Nigeria?
