Kid is the goods but they may have to play him at the 3 just to keep him healthy. |

Bully ball is something he struggles with. |

His debut in the summer league was crazy good. That Jovic kid that Miami drafted looked really good too. He may end up being the steal of the draft. |

This isn't 1960. Some white dude named Chet cannot succeed in today's NBA. |

Doesn't Durant essentially play the 3? I wouldn't put too much stock in how anyone does in Summer League. |

By somebody by the name of Kenneth Lofton, Jr. That's going to happen once he plays against the "real pros" too. That's why they might want to think about a position switch for him. Kid is a helluva talent though. |

He's playing center? He wasn't even a center in the WCC. |

He’s going to be a massive bust but LTG also had Patrick Williams as the next Khawi Leonard |

You never know. I said Zion was a can't miss. Just hope Holmgren doesn't get broke in half. |

Damn right I'm going to root for him overseas. He should go to the NBL in the Australian league. Bulls just signed a guy from the Illawarra Hawks there. He has potential. I'm a Tasmanian JackJumper guy and I will bet the shit out of him down there. The French and German leagues are high-quality. Greece is pretty good. Icelandic basketball feels like pick-up leagues of guys on their lunch hour but they do not play defense so always bet the over in the Icelandic league games. |

I don't think Holmgren has the body type which will enable him to put on much muscle. I've seen some people compare him to a young Giannis, but I think that is unrealistic. I believe Porzingis is the best comparison as of right now. |

This kid is going to be the bust of all busts, I mean, we are making fun of Kofi for having to play overseas, but this thread of full of highlights of guys like Kofi and other bums abusing him..what does that tell you? |

Durant came into the league too as a twig. But a smoothed out twig. This kid's bones stick out of his skin. |
