Joshua Okogie HUSTLE GUY for ROCKETS π€π₯ #joshokogie #HTown #Rockets #Liftoff #NBA
Uh the quick rundown on him, right? A Kogi is, you know, he’s a a hustle guy through and through. Gives 110% energy every time he’s on the floor. Um he’s about 6’4, ridiculous 7 foot something wingspan, so great size for his position. Uh he’s quick. He’s able to stick with smaller guys on the perimeter. In fact, there was a play, I don’t know if anybody will remember this, but when the Rockets blew out the Suns in Houston this past season, there was a play where Jaylen Green was dancing on the perimeter and went for a step back three, and Josh Aogi with that ridiculous length just reached up and snatched the ball out of Jaylen Green’s hands, took off in transition, got past Jaylen, and then finished at the rim through contact from Tar

That play was from like 2 yrs ago
He's the big guard stopper they needed.
If all the 7 foot wing spans touch finger to finger can they reach across the entire court?
Okogie is a good player, but the Rockets need a better PG than FVV.
If he can keep up with hustle God Jae'sean Tate I'll be impressed.

And this mf still canβt shoot
The reason the Suns let him go to Charlotte is he was making the stars( Booker,Beal, KD) look like they were playing at 75% speed. Guys who make $50 mil a season don't like to be made to look bad . Okogie is all hustle.
