17 off the bench tonight in the minutes he got with Wes not playing.


Wes is probably going to start collecting DNPs now.

Another thing I noticed was that he was also playing defense and switching when he needed to, that wasn’t on his scouting report. Easier for a shooter to learn D, than a defender to become a shooter.

There was also a camera shot at timeout where he is talking to Caruso and AC is telling him something. Looks like he is really taking notes on how to defend. He has a good lateral movement at defense, I think he has a potential to be a good defender.
