Basketball Hell

Although DeMar DeRozan has a reputation as a pure scorer, he's also an excellent and underrated playmaker He gets a bad rep as someone who hinders the development of players around him, but the thread below shows why that might be a misconception ⬇️

If you’re looking for niche NBA highlights/tape, look no further than @simplyballup’s account. His page is one of the best I’ve come across on this app. He spends lots of time on his videos, so go give him a follow!

@Del22392Del I’m sorry Vipracama I will find more examples of him locking up the greatest player to ever touch a basketball

@bballhell ….but he only did it one time———your examples don’t tell me much….

No doubt Keegan Murray is going to carve out a terrific career for himself in the NBA, but at what position? Does he project out as a 3-level scorer, or simply a floor spacer? Thread below⬇️

@alex3stacks Thank you Alex

@bballhell Hey this was good. And you should feel good.

Thanks for reading! He might not be who we thought he was after year 1, but Murray is still the face of the Kings' future for now, and I'm excited to watch him continue to build on his strengths and weaknesses as he's done each season so far.

My main takeaway is that Keegan is best utilized as a stretch 4, where he can abuse switches out of the post and attack the limited footspeed of many bigger forwards. We'll see if the development of his handle will catch up with his physical growth, as that could change things.

@thatl0calguy Another 22 foot jumper for Demar.

Thanks for reading! These two guys have so much synergy between them; the buckets come easily, no need for complex sets. I'm glad the Kings have decided not to move on from Malik just yet, simply because he's a joy to watch on the court.

To end with a fun one: Sabonis is always pushing the ball in transition with his eyes up, and Malik is always streaking up the court looking to rip the rim off.

Malik Monk's name was in trade rumors all summer, but it appears he's here to stay for now. One thing they'd lose with his departure is the Monk/Sabonis connection, a staple in the Kings' offense Today, we'll take a look at this 2-man game and what it provides for Sacramento⬇️
