I think it's spun forward in the way that we thought it would. It was a class. It was a draft class, a high school. It always is driven by the high school class because we they if they could draft them, they would. But they want to use the college buffer to get a good kick the tires and see what happens when they go up, level up in the competition. You saw some shift.
You know, I mentioned like Isaiah Collier was a guy who was ranked really high in the class. Somebody out in L.A., I assume you got to see some. And sometimes you see shifts there that happen. Like Reed Shepard obviously ascended in that year and got drafted. But overall, we knew that that class lacked a generational, foundational type of superstar. So I'm not super surprised.

I expected that to spin forward into Summer League, which it did. Summer League was just like, you know, there's some guys here that we like. So no, overall, not terribly surprised.

Yeah, you can make the argument you'll hear people talk about You know, how much time do they have? Imei, obviously, it's a high bar for a rookie to play. For Imei, he wants to win. That's his mentality. And you look at them and what their goals are in the short term, Reid just doesn't really fit them right now. I think the big thing is he really needs to play.

I was surprised they brought him out of the G League so fast. I've heard some people kind of talk about the quality of the G League right now, which is a riveting conversation. Quality being bad? Yeah, that it's down right now.

Yeah, I've been shocked by the shooting. I mean, I didn't expect him to shoot so poorly, but I don't know. You would think that if he was doing the things that he does well, that he would get to play because you keep hearing people make that argument about that. But Dillingham, too, I thought would come on a little earlier, but I think we've seen some signs that he's going to be okay.
