• Cade looks healthy w 30pt 9assists and some heavily contested makes. He’s definitely getting smoother and driving successfully but no FTs and 3 TOs can be improved
• Duren and Stew turned in GREAT performances and both rebounded like crazy. Just solid energy off the boards w multiple double-doubled
• Ausar’s blocking presence was felt and Sasser felt confident I guess
• Killian played far too many minutes and forced some downright frustrating shots
• Jaden Ivey was MIA and inefficient, but I’m confused why he was off bench (for only 17 minutes at that). Could be great sixth man but Ivey still needs 30 minutes, not Killian
• Our turnovers were devastating and we were lucky to ever recover from that hole we put ourselves in
• Killian missed Burks at the end but Cade’s shot wasn’t horrible

Cade and Ivey should be 1st unit with Killian and Sasser 2nd.

Ivey was a top 5 rookie last year and him and Cade never had enough time to play together due to Cades injury. Travesty he only got 17 minutes yesterday.

I know Killian is a better defender but when the ball goes to him I prepare for something bad to happen. When it goes to Ivey, I feel some excitement, even if it often times ends in a TO.
