Brad wants all the 6’7 whites who can shoot
Tell me how to feel. 🥱
Dude can shoot it
SVI FOR 3
Rock Chalk Jayhawk baby. He probably won’t get a lot of minutes but it’s always nice to see this as a KU fan
He is below average at everything and has no real NBA skill. He’s not Justin Jackson or Champaignie, at least, but there are much better players unsigned
Nice😎
End of bench sniper, I’m indifferent but you can never have enough shooters
Rather one of the other guys they worked out but whatever
Brad supports Ukraine
We got shooters!!!
Svi gives the Celtics another depth wing shooter which is something the team needed as the only other guy who fits that bill was Hauser. Obviously you hope Walsh, Banton or Brissette can show signs of being able to shoot it during training camp, but they’re not guys you’re necessarily counting on for that role, but Svi brings that element off the bench alongside Hauser.
Also, Svi averaged 5.3 APG to just 2.1 TOVs in CHA’s final 8 games, so he’s shown some potential as a secondary playmaker. If his defense isn’t outright dreadful I actually think there’s something here.
He’s lit it up against us before mostly in garbage time though. He does take absurdly difficult threes and chucks with reckless abandon which is fun. Not the worst depth piece but obviously won’t be a rotation guy.
Thank you bro now we don’t have to deal with this weird Kelly oubre obsession
Rip blake
Great pickup for a league minimum end of the bench guy.
You do have to worry a little bit about him wanting too many minutes, on a team that might not have enough for him.
