Awesome if correct.
Long arms. Accurate shot. Quick release. Excellent defense. Mature and ready to produce now. We have no other young player with that combination of skills, not even Booker.

Bridges looks smooth as glass already. He is going to be a really nice player wherever they decide to plug him in. I do think we got three nice additions out of this draft class, and quite possibly three future starters, maybe even by the end of this season.

Bridges is a nice addition for sure. Hopefully it all comes together for him.

“He’ll continue to add things to his game, but I don’t think that’s smart until he’s proven that he can be that reliable guy day in and day out."

Defense and shooting. Yes please.

His shot reminds me of Hersey Hawkins who had a sweet release like that.

There is potential on this young team --Booker, Ayton, Bridges, and Jackson could be a nice core. They just need a pg. One of those four will have to play off the bench eventually. I would think that Mikal makes the most sense since he might be the most versatile. He could fill a Ginobili type role.

Gino is quite a jump for him in the realm of handles and playmaking - I think the potential is there but it will take lots of work. Igor's offense witl provide the opportunities and he's known for his dedication, so the chances are good, IMO. I think you're fight about him being the most versitile and I thimk he has temperament to come off the bench.

I was thinking more of sixth man defensive specialist and shooter.

Some good news. Bridges says he feels 100%. Now we need a PG to get him the ball.
