Could an excellent recruiter interest him in a starters spot on a contender? Did we even try? He played 40 minutes last night while Mitchell Robinson only played 13. He may not be a rim runner Luka likes, but he may be able to play a lot in the playoffs.
I also thought Reddish looked great. Really attacking the rim. He has always been a tease so it will be interesting to see if he can do it consistently. Maybe the Mavs had interest him, but he is the high boom or bust young guy who I wished we would try to sign a year early rather than 5 years later. There is bust potential but you could also be rewarded for smart evaluation.
I agree. If they can have the type of season they had 2 years ago. Brunson gives them something they have sorely needed. A creator. Hartenstein may have been one of the better pickups in the off season. He can score, rebound and plays hard. Reddish had been in Thib's doghouse, but he may be working his way out of it. He's got talent.
