Rookie watch thread, other than Doncic

really one freakin reply?? I was hoping people fans would update their rookies here. Especially the one that were drafted mid rd one as I am always interested to see how they pan out. 

For Boston, I really love Williams potential. He has great spring and pick and roll potential. No one really on Boston that has that type of athleticism. He has good shot locking awareness as well. Just don't know how Brad Stevens will find him enough minutes and Boston seems to like A Baynes and what he brings. Wish he would get stronger. In time I guess. But I see a lot of Clint Capela type game in him soon.

eh it will get rolling in the season.

I think both Nuggets rookies will redshirt. I love Jarred Vanderbilt. Honestly higher on him than MPJ

has their been any indications on what the timeline/plans on MPJ is yet??

Not really. MPJ's camp has indicated that they were hoping to have him out there early, but the organization hasn't given a timeline on either MPJ or Vanderbilt and I think they want to take it super slow since they don't really need them in the rotation.

was one of the most efficient scorers in the country last year. 

wow, love to hear stories about things like this. Undrafted player who may very well out play many draft picks. Way too early to tell,but great update. Knicks need a break like this.

Thing is I like Mitchel Robinson's potential as well.

I hate to compliment anything involving Philly, but Phillies rookie Shamet looks like a perfect complement to Simmons and embiid. He doesn't need the ball much but has a very smooth shooting stroke. He can create a little bit as well. Damn skinny though not sure about his defense yet

Redick's cheap replacement.

WOW Trae Young going for 35 and 11ast with only one TO. Yeah I know someone will say it was only Cleveland, but still very encouraging for any one who believed in TY. I was definitely NOT one of them.

All of their rookies had great games. Huerter hit 3 3s, grabbed 10 boards, and dished out 4 dimes while Spellman (he needs to tone up) added 17 with 4 3s. That says a lot about the dumpster fire that is Cleveland.

JJJ was awesome a couple nights ago. I'm conflicted on whether I want to see Memphis ride out Gasol and Conley's last 2 years while JJJ slowly develops and just go ahead and lose their 1st in a mediocre draft or hope those 2 build up some trade value, Memphis cashes in, and try and keep their 1st this year to get him developing with JJJ ASAP.

Just read that JaMychal Green is out for a month...so JJJ about to be a starter for a while. I liked him coming off the bench...oh well.
