In his much anticipated return, chet holmgren came back and played for the Oklahoma city thunder in 2023 NBA summer league and he looked good. He was rusty to start but stuffed the stat sheet. Jalen Williams looked like the best player on the floor for the Thunder and showed why he was so good last year. Keyonte George and Ochai Agbaji looked good for the Utah Jazz and had some highlight plays and got to the basket almost at will. It was a nice showing for the Jazz who have to be excited about George.

Keyonte was really impressive in the second half. Ochai played well
It really seemed like George needed to get those nerves out. But once he did he played really well
I like that you like the idea of going after Dame. One of the few Jazz writers with any sense that way… everyone else pro-jazz in the media seems down on the idea…who else you gonna get who would want to be in Utah?
Chet Holmgren played well after the first quarter. But to me, he's just an injury waiting to happen. He desperately needs to add some muscle. He appears to not have done anything towards that goal since he was injured. 🤔
Keyonte George wasn't my first choice for a guard, but I can see why Ainge drafted him. He's a ball thief; sees passing lanes; can shoot the three; is a willing passer and likes to drive into the paint. Holmgren got the better of him on that two-handed block. But it was an important lesson for Keyonte to learn. He's not going to forget it anytime soon and will learn to adjust his game when playing against Holmgren and other bigs.
Could we just go for Dame? Would you guys like Dame in Utah???
I do not think the Jazz should go after Dame, because even with him the Jazz is not stronger than the Lakers and Nuggets, and most importantly his crazy contract will stop the Jazz from improving the rosters!
I say it EVERYTIME I watch they really need to Pass to Ochai in the corner he is SOOOOOO GOOD There Micah Potter knew to get it there.
Excited for Keyonte in the Jazz, a lot of potential this dude.
keygeogre got that sweet pull up jumper i think he can build his game around that, my comp for him is john starks, you learn something new everyday and im ready to say his pgotf, to that point, i think the best direction for the team is to grow organically, tht can duplicate what he did at the end of last year he can be an allstar, thats worth a roll of the dice,. also, hendricks is a franchise level powerfoward, and sensabaugh needs to be developed but he can do that hes another winner from the draft. i think we know what we got w agbaji and this a fine player as well. to put that in the pot for lillard, you would regret having to see hendricks im sure in a few years w his new team.
The ribs snake dribble analogy was off the charts 😂
Keyonte had 1 of those welcome to the nba type moments love he kept his composure
I’m a Thunder fan but man I love Walker Kessler. He’s a beast for y’all. I was so impressed watching him last season
Holmgren for ROY over Wemby
How did they come up with these stupid names why would anybody name their kid keynote I guess it's better than ja
Keyonte had a few great passes.
Sensabaugh's 7'2" wingspan gives me hope for him on the defensive end. I'd guess losing some weight would really help also.
I thought Keyonte looked great. I was impressed. The kid is 19 so I don’t expect much this year, but in a couple of years ? Yeah, he could be darn good. Great pick
