It's actually a pretty interesting group of guys. Young, Toupane, Cook, Jok, Matthews, Diallo, and the rest of the Cousins family

That's a lot of Cousins...

Surprised to see Crawford on there. Dude ain't playing around. Like that he wants to do whatever it takes to end up a Pel next year despite having a great 16-17 season.

Interested to see Toupane and Young. Hope Jackson plays. Thought he was out, but he's on the roster.

For the LSU folk, Blakeney is playing in Chicago with Dunn and Valentine.

Why is Jackson on if they said he was out for SL? Did he recover faster because he hasn't met our training staff yet?

I like that too. Jordan carries so much value on this team. On the court its effort, energy, and hustle. Off the court its maturity, experience, effort, plus he can give advice to the young bucks.

Yea I doubt FJ plays but I am itching to see him too

Jackson is on there I think just as a precaution in case he's ready. Which I doubt he will be.

Lol Summer League is in Vegas. You are referring to our D-league team (or G-league) and no I don't think there has been a decision made

Cook and Crawford looked good enough last year for an NBA roster. (Cook also made the All D-League first team last season)

I have high hopes for Diallo's continued development.

Isaiah Cousins put up 17 pts (46/29/79), 5.7 rebounds, and 4 assists per game in D-League. No relation to Demarcus Cousins.

Jaleel Cousins put up 5 pts and 3 rebounds in the Dleague and is the younger brother of Demarcus Cousins.

Peter Jok is an interesting prospect due to his long arms and shooting ability. He put up 20 pts per game last year on 47/38/91 shooting for the Hawkeyes. I expect him to make an NBA roster this season.

Jalen Jones averaged 21 pts (44/35/75), 9 rebounds, 2 assists, and a steal in the D-League last season. (He was named to the All D-League 3rd team last season)

Jordan Matthews put up 10.6 pts (43/39/73) for Gonzaga last season.

Royce O'Neale averaged 8 pts (51/30/65) and 4.5 rebounds in Spain last season

Kaleb Tarczewski was a big time recruit coming out of high school (#4-6 overall in the country). He was a 4 year starter for the Wildcats and averaged 10 pts and 7.3 rebounds in the D-League last season.

Axel Toupane played briefly with the pelicans last season averaging 5.5 pts in the last 2 games of the season. In the summer league, he averaged 16 pts (46/35/81), 4 rebounds, and 3.6 assists.

I liked Jalen Jones a lot in college. Had 1 pro move on offense and a lot of ball skills. Like giving him a look.

It finally has more than one player that is likely to make the opening day roster.

Jok has deep range and a great shot release. Hope he does well.

Yep. And his percentages were really good for being the teams biggest volume shooter.

Pretty close to a 50/40/90 season last season...in college that is pretty rare (Buddy came damn close 2 years ago).
