2026 Summer League

I think Peat will be ahead of Dunn on the depth chart by the All-star break. If it takes that long.

Fleming needs more seasoning and Maluach needs NBA minutes. I think Maluach could slide into a backup role now but I won't mind them waiting until injury or later in the season.

I think they're going to be even more cautious with Williams this year and Nick Richards is gone... so Man Man should get some minutes but they probably won't be consistent until someone gets hurt or he forces the issue.

Yang did not outplay him at all, not even close.

ManMan shut him down every time he got the ball in the post. Yang burned him one time on a drive.

He’s a better ball handler, driver and passer. ManMan is the better 3pt shooter.

ManMan is also a better defender.

Looking forward to the next game. Maluach and Peat did great. Hope they build on this. For Fleming, I want him to demand the ball and try to create his own shot a couple of times, or at least cut to the hoop and get in on offensive rebounds. Just be more active on offense. Do not defer. Fleming should be at the top of the pecking order. Was he ever the focus of the offense when he played college ball?

i don't need fleming to act like the rest of the summer league players - he's already above summer ball imo - i don't know why he's playing

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

sounds like we had a few guys cramping in game 1 - hoping that's been dialed in cuz it was less than 48 hrs ago

Man Man is the better post defender, rebounder, shot blocker, and lob threat.

Yes Yang is the better passer and ball handler.

Man Man has skills far more important for the Center position - and I am feeling pretty good about his progress.

For instance - compare him to Mark Williams. Man man is a better rim defender, and rebounder already. He also has a somewhat useful 3pt shot.

Mark Williams is a better post offensive threat - that's his only advantage that i see. To me Man Man should already be the starter.
