  kuzma will be day to day. Interesting comments from Jayce Johnson. Hopefully he is figuring it out and learns to keep the ball up hgh he needs another 15/20 lbs of muscle to really hold his ground

  Jayce Johnson will be good. Like really good. I think too many in our fanbase have give up on him too early. He still has NBA potential.

    At the start of the season I thought he would be a project that may not work out. The last six games or so he appears to be figuring it out

      It’s usually a shocker for those 7 foot 18 year olds their first year. He needs to hit the weight room and work on his horrid shot release. Watching him shoot foul shots is painful.

        It’s crazy how expectations have changed. I remember when they would say it takes a big man 3-4 years in the NBA to fully develop…and that was after 3-5 years in college.
        
        Now, if Jayce, a freshman, isn’t amazing, some of us call him a bust.

        I don’t thnk anyone called him a bust. He just looked completely lost at the beginning of the season His improvement the last six games has been substantial.

        No one here. The good news is that this board is above average in their intelligence. We do have some good ones.
