2024 NBA Draft (Baylor and Trey)

[go_jays]

Trey looking pretty good 1st half... 8 points on 3 of 4... 2 3's and a nice baseline jumper for 2. Handing the ball some. Played about 6 minutes of 1st Q and 8 minutes of the 2nd. Announcers were high on him and Mac (at Creighton) getting kudos as well for "doing a great job of preparing his players to be pros".

Malone sounding like a Jays recruiter.

Malone sounding like a Jays recruiter.

For sure. He likes "the brand" of basketball that he coaches. I think Mac has a lot of "fans" in the profession... which obviously doesn't hurt when it comes to recruiting.

Baylor doing some of the things he does

Feels like Boston was the perfect landing place for him

Definitely the player we were hoping/expecting to see last year.

I think the difference is, partly anyway, he doesn't have players specifically targeting him for physical play. I think that really got into his head, in several ways, last year.

Trey Alexander could be this year's impact two-way contract

Alexander has comfortably been Denver's second-best option in Las Vegas behind Strawther. And with Strawther resting Tuesday's game, the new two-way player from Creighton got an opportunity to shine as a lead guard. Alexander went for 18 points and eight rebounds, bringing his Summer League averages to 16 and 5.3.

The rookie plays with good spatial instinct and operates at his own pace with the ball. He's knocking down 3s off the dribble and the catch. He's getting to the line when he attacks the rim. He said on the broadcast Tuesday that Denver knew the Hornets would be in a lot of drop coverage, allowing him to prioritize getting to his confident midrange jumper.
After three steady performances — starting when he came off the bench last Friday - Alexander is shooting 50% on 10.7 field goal attempts per game and 46% on 4.3 outside attempts per game. Seeing as Michael Malone was already impressed by his week at mini camp before the trip to Vegas, this summer might be tracking toward Alexander becoming a valuable regular-season role player.
