There’s no telling. This is legit a free year. You have a top player coming back next season and potential to bring another or 2.
So that could make them playoff contenders immediately. If that happens, you don’t need kids still trying to find their spots and get comfortable on the floor. You playing for nothing but a draft pick. Teach the kids how to play the game
Like I said, Mudiay should play, he’s under contract but he’s had years to figure it out. Give the next kid the same opportunity he got. It ain’t just about them being a couple years younger. He doesn’t have skills that translate to April-June.
Fiz should have learned his lesson already with that fair shit in Memphis. I hate to see young players stunted by coaches. Gilbert talked about this on one of those episode as well
The thing is, there is still minutes for Mudiay but take those minutes from Mario who’s a bum. Kanter who won’t be there too much longer. Trey Burke who you already know what to expect from.
You’re not playing for anything, take minutes from guys who might be more effective now but don’t lend to winning . Dude says “Frank was playing horrible” not really, there’s no offensive philosophy, a bunch of iso players and pick and roll. On defense, he’s far and away the best guy they have on the floor anytime he plays. That translates to June right now. You gotta see what more you can pull out. Terry Rozier is an upgrade over Mudiay right now and the same age.
