Good to see all three of our rookies getting the minutes on the Valley team since they are clearly not needed for minutes on the Phoenix roster. Get those guys some much needed experience in the D-League.

It’s really tough to incorporate three rookies on any team.

Khaman Maluach needs lots and lots of playing time if he is to develop. There is no substitute for playing even if it is the G-League.

Bouyea has performed well as would be expected.

Maluach needed that shot to go down. He did everything right, but it wouldn't fall.

I'm with you Frank (Kaminsky). Sometimes the calls don't make sense.

Koby Brae put up 22 shots but only made 7 for 19 points.

Huntley and Brae might have been the best Suns rookies out there tonight but that's not saying much.

idk what to make of our rooks in g-league

first of all the valley is a team in it's self with players who play together everyday - who are comfortable with and trust each other - they're not gojng out of their way trying to get brea huntley and manman the ball - they're trying to win the game - booyea(?) was the only one who looked like he played with the valley regularly- riddle me that right? he is a pg tho

but the rooks didn't do themselves any favors - brea is over anxious on some of his 3s - huntley has a livers type of game with effort being his attribute -and manman..

instead of getting in position for the offensive rebound he kept running g to the rim for lobs that never came - he didn't help on defense when he could have - idk what the valley defensive scheme is but looks like the unorganized man on man you see at the rec center

im not mad im just disappointed- i thought we might be picking queen in the draft because manman was supposed to be long gone and queen is off to a great start

my take is manman came in alot of confidence and now everybody is putting him through the ringer - from the 3 to the D and everything in between maluach is struggling - needs a ton of minutes and a pg who wants to pick and roll
