Chet has a higher floor than people gave him credit for imo. He’s a plus shooter with great length.

The most important thing about him though is that he is coachable and loves the game.

Who knows if he will ever improve his weight? But he is long, skilled and has good bbiq and work ethic for his age.

Kinda looks like a decent "stretch 5" doesn't he ?? Blocks out on the boards & serious rim protector. I think playing with Timme & Gonzaga may have kept folks from realizing just how good this guy might end up being.

I never doubted his ability. He’s 7 feet tall, can drain shots from anywhere on the court and he averaged like 3 or 4 blocks a game in college. If his body holds up his ceiling is the roof.

In most other draft classes Chet is the undoubted #1. In this one you just also had Jabari and Paulo who just look more durable and have similarly high ceilings

The Jazz must not had a 1st round pick since Mitchell there lack of young talent is striking.

At worst, I'm just down for the competition. Pels vs OKC in the Summer League finals.

After seeing NAW & Jax dominate, I know Summer League doesn't always translate to real games. But sometimes it does.

Either way, if OKC is ballin' in Summer League, I want the Pels' young stars to out-perform them in Summer League.

Name one guy from Utah team—OKC is pretty much playing with an all star team of lottery picks and Utah has a bunch of dudes from across the street out there.

Jabari looks extremely passive and meh to the basket right now. Maybe he has the yips?

Where the hell is Karlo Matkovic? If we can’t see Dyson get that big athletic European freak out there to show off his skill.
