He’s absolutely lethal from three and he’s held up so far defensively. They need to give him a shot.

    Another person who can’t play defense? No thanks

    Agreed. I’d love to AJ play with the starters, especially once they get the pick and roll more figured out.

    Imagine Lillard coming off a Giannis screen with Giannis rolling toward the basket… and having AJ, Middleton, and Brook all waiting on the wings or in the corners. Could be lethal.

    He needs to show he can stay on the court defensively first, no point having him out there if he’s a cone on D

      16 minutes, no defensive breakdowns. One foul commited. Smart switches. I’d say looks good so far.
