The feeling of pride towards someone on this team is back!
Beyond excited. A true healthy rebuild beginning
Cam, Noah, Jalen and Claxton have potential to be a very fun team to watch. They’re all way too young to expect a lot of wins but hopefully we’ll get a lot of close games.
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Best Jalen in New York
Wow. Congratulations! Definitely a great find by Marks and co.
Get this man lots of minutes this year!
Congratulations, Jalen.
Onward and upward.
I wrote this about Jalen Wilson last year during 2023 summer league and after the draft:
> “I looked and looked and looked for a reason exactly why a 6’8” 225 pound NBA body ready SF who won the NCAA championship in 2022, was a consensus 1st team all-American in 2023, and was the Big 12 player of the year in 2022 fell all the way to the 51st overall pick in the 2nd round of the draft…
> These are the only negatives I was able to find…
> He’s already 22, which in some NBA circles is too old for a rookie.
> He played a game his freshman year, and broke his ankle in his 2nd game.
> He declared for the draft after his sophomore year, and withdrew.
> He got arrested for suspicion of DUI his junior year, and was suspended 3 games.
> He declared for the draft after his junior year, and withdrew.
> Finally, he declared for the draft after his senior year.
> It was a long and bumpy road to get here, but he’s here. He could use a coaching staff that’s willing to develop him and take the time on him.
> He got injured and played his ass off. He did a bad thing and stayed in school and kept playing hard.
> I love redemption stories, and I like this kid a lot.”
Yeaaaaa I knew it!
Do we think he starts?
HOLY W
That’s amazing! I bet he’s over the moon to see his hard work get acknowledged! Keep grinding
We now have 2 Summer League MVPS Cam & Jalen, the best Cam & Jalen in the league
I hope he starts instead of the old vets. We need our young core to build chemistry
Schroeder, CT, J. WILSON, Clowney, Clax should be the starting 5
The fact that he won and Scotty Pippin Jr didn’t..
It was written
Derrick white 2.0
51st pick in the 2nd round, by the way
Wilson Clax and Clowney is a solid front court core. I’m excited to watch them all play this year.
We got a future star in Brooklyn✨
55% from 3 on high volume will translate to real value, amazing draft pick
How is he all league second team tho
