Hornets vs Spurs: Coach Chris Jent Postgame Media Availability | 7/17/2025
What have you seen from both of them from year one to year two as they go through this summer league process? Yeah, obviously KJ didn’t play last year, but just an experience playing in the NBA being a starter um and working like he’s been constantly in the gym, showed great improvement throughout the year. So, I think he had a sense of comfortability when he got here and Ton has been great. Like he’s showing his growth, putting the ball on the floor, his defense has been much improved. So, both definitely getting better. Would you consider them sort of your anchors for the summer league team, being able to help out all the the younger guys and the newer guys that you brought in? Yeah, for sure. For sure. And they and they’ve been high level communicators. They’ve been talking to these guys, keeping their spirits high. Um, just overall been fantastic. KJ and Tan, what what is the next step for them? What do they need to continue to do to make an impact in the NBA in in year two? Well, you got to impact the you have to impact the game on both sides of the ball. So defensively, you have to be solid, especially for KJ. He has be a dog on the ball. Ton has to be able to switch on the people. And it’s always a constant shooting development. Like if you can shoot the basketball, things tend to open up for you offensively.
