Most of these players will never play in NBA. Fears and Queen are obviously both talented but way too early to know how they will develop

Queen will put up some rebounds. Idk why, but watch him-he just has a natural sense to position himself where he needs to be.

That in itself can be viable with zion on the court

Fears looks much better this game. Some really nice passes and drives. Needs to lessen losing the ball though.

After getting 4 games to evaluate where these guys are, I'm encouraged by the abilities, skillsets, and tools they've shown. While they are still rough around the edges and has some ways to go before they can contribute to winning, I still think they can play a little bit this up coming season and be productive in a more structured offensive role where they aren't asked to do too much. They should probably not share the floor together as they are too inexperienced. Group them with a lineup with veterans for a couple of minutes a game and they can be slowly eased in.

Obviously they will have their ups and downs throughout the season but they've shown me some progression during this short stretch of games.

Fears has that natural ability to get into the lane and draw contact, but he also seems to have enough body control to either play through the bumps or flail himself around to draw foul calls..

SGA would have shot 30 free throws in last night's game if he got bumped around like Fears did

I’m not sure we could have drafted any worse. Queen is fricking garbage already living up to what everybody already knew would happen. Fears can’t shoot if his life depended on it and his basketball IQ is on the retarded level. Great job dumars and some of you on this board defended these picks lmfao

Townsend and Quinones are unwatchable. What talent evaluator put them on this summer squad?

we are just a bunch of guys on a message board but even the national sports media is questioning Dumars. We are going to be near the bottom of the west with Willie as coach. That pick Dumars gave up has a good chance of being a top 5 pick next year. Be honest after watching Queen play defense do you think he’s worth a top 5 pick? Not only that but I’m pretty sure a good GM could have got us a really good player for an unprotected first

Very ecstatic with Fears the last 3 games. He has continually gotten better. He is going to be a very good scorer when the game slows down for him. If he get gets a consistent 3 ball, he's going to be a scary good.
