His type of role seems perfect coming off the bench, but we saw how he was with the 2nd unit last year. Bluuuuuugh.

He's a streaky shooter. Problem is he needs to learn to pass the damn ball. Davis should touch the ball twice before anyone else is allowed to shoot. Reke just sees that there are only two defenders between him and the basket and thinks, "I got this!"

I want to like Reke, but I have never seen a more out of control player in my life... and when he does get to the rim, he misses layups.....I just started cringing everytime he got the ball last night.

I'm not gonna get to upset over thr loss bc GS is really good and when they get hot at home not many teams will beat them

But....This offense is being run thru Reke, and that is just dumb....Get the damn ball to AD

We saw how he was getting an inconsistent 24ish minutes off the bench. Bump that to 30ish letting him start and finish.

I don't think he'll ever "learn" to pass the ball as in it coming natural to him. On that 3 on 1 fast break last night he didn't even look at his teammates, he was hellbent on taking it himself as soon as he got the ball. However, we have seen him have high assist games and look for others before. If the condition for him playing with the starters and finishers is he has to look to pass first and he needs to save the hero ball for his 2nd unit minutes, I think it could work out.
