At this point, I'm pretty confident that he's not a two-way player next season -- he'll be on the regular roster. I really like the game he's developing.

He has the same issues as he did in college. Too trigger happy. Kid needs to control his shot selection.

He's pretty bad. Bad shot selection, worse defense.

I'm not advocating that we plan for him to be a starter next season. I'm advocating for him to get a minimum contract.

At this point, you should be able to see the potential to develop him.

There’s better players worth a minimum than him but to each their own. I’ll take him back as a two way player tho

I think Marshall looks pretty good for an undrafted rookie. He's got combo forward size and length and has the potential to be a guy that can guard bigger small forwards, which is a big weakness for us.

Obviously he still has a long way to go offensively, but he's athletic enough to score around the rim and can get a few assists a game. If he can develop a shot he's definitely a keeper.

We all know he isnt here to contribute down the road. He is getting his opportunity and slightly making the most of it. He just isnt an nba player. Happy he is getting a shot though cause he plays hard. Wish him luck next season when our core returns.

I think we need to see what we get in the draft or in trades first. If we don't need to develop someone else with more potential and he's the break in case of emergency defensive wing that only plays in 10 minutes in half the games, sure.

I'm much more interested in keeping Johnson than Marshall, even if Johnson may not have many useful years left.

Meh ..... I’d rather see time on the court for players we have invested in. Gabriel showed promise in the bubble (rebounded and agitated the heck out of AD) gave him a two year deal, and he can’t sniff any time on a team in dire need of long active bodies. From the little I’ve watched of him, he, NAW, Johnson, and Hart are the only players who don’t mind getting in players grillz
