It's gonna happen. I love Keith, dude is an absolute beast and a baller, but Tone is just better. He's longer, more athletic, a better shooter, faster, and just a more complete offensive weapon. I also don't think Keith would care if he came off the bench. He just wants to play ball and win. He's the perfect role player. He'll bring experience, talent, and leadership off the bench. Not many teams have that.

I doubt he is gonna take the starting position from a veteran like Hornsby who is praised so much for his work ethic. Now, they may split minutes.

Blakeney may start by the end of the year, but his biggest weakness is lack of strength. He will need to put on some weight to avoid get bossed around a bit. Still think we'll play with 3 guards, so it won't matter.
