We bring Jett game 7 of the finals :P Personally i have nothing against a year in the g league. I like his skill set, could be the missing piece with his all out offensive game.
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

I remember Dick in a game vs us when he had like -30 +/-
If we tanked like Toronto Jett would probbaly play 30 mpg. Hawkins had 30 point games early in a season, now he is nowhere to be found after main players got healthy.

Gradey Dick was such a perfect fit for us. Great bball IQ, works hard on defense, great shooter, working on taking the ball to the hoop. I'm still having trouble getting over that one. I'm sure Weltman had some reasoning behind it.

I'm sure it's been said before but I feel like it came down to the FO feeling like they were playing with house money having two lottery picks and bet that Jett will turn into a big-time player.

If that was the play, I applaud it.

Dick was so bad his first 20 games people would've made a thread about firing our GM and now people think he's the perfect pick for us lol.

Jett will get his chances, hopefully, to show he's capable for a specific role on our team.

The real play was just getting Cason Wallace. Shooting 50/42 and a pesky defender.

Imagine the defense of Isaac/Black/Suggs/Cason. All 4 now above average 3pt shooters too.

He had subpar results at the combine. Probably hurt him.

I don't see it other than you liking him a lot :lol:

Almost 10% higher TS and way better on offense and defense currently... only one day older than him.

https://stathead.com/tiny/sMThk

I think he only projects to be better at assists.

Big numbers on bad teams don't move me anymore.. seen it too much. That being said, we'll see what happens moving forward.. we've seen guards become inefficient to very efficient.

Jett. didn't even do measures.

At that point he might have gotten a promise already, perhaps similar with Franz. We don’t know.

Maybe it was part of him committing to University of Michigan, a university that the Devos family donates to. Perhaps getting drafted in the first round was part of the recruiting process.

Acquiring players from Michigan has been something we’re doing for a while now

Personally I like Keyonte / Cason over what we got in Howard at this second. Could just be because I have actually seen them in minutes.

Dick would not have cracked this roster either.

One played for Michigan and one didn’t.

There’s your answer.

.. maybe it will change in the future but right now every re draft has us as biggest losers this past draft wasting 2 picks.....one with Black who should have gone in mid 20 ish.... and Jett dropping to oblivion
