If Aaron Wiggins and Isiah Joe can play for OKC in the playoffs, Hawkins can play for us.


There was a point last night where BI/CJ/Trey/JV weren't in the game and AD said where's th offense supposed to come from?

Hawkins had the highest Points Per Possession on the team coming off screens at 1.26 this year. BI was next at 1.2, and we did run some of that last night for him but Dort was literally in his jock strap on those plays.
How difficult is it to give him some run and let him take 2 or 3 threes? If he looks good, then leave him in, if he's not ready then he's not ready.
I think it would be beyond stupid to play a playoff series without Zion and Hawkins doesn't touch the court. We ain't winning the championship this year, so let everyone get the experience they need here. If he's not ready, at least he'll know what he'll need to do this offseason, as well as next season when he plays, but if he doens't get to experience playoff basketball at all then it'll be rather difficult to work on what's needed this offseeason.

Was just about to say this.

I also don't think this is much of a Jose series. SGA and Jalen Williams are too big for him. This isn't DLO, Austin Reaves, Fox or Monk who i would feel fine letting Jose harass.

I would give Jose's minutes to Hawkins.
