i'm seeing him listed as a CG too which would be ideal. people have been saying danny will play 2 PGs at the same time but gaffney is a CG which doesn't really count, so i think we have yet to actually see it here.

diggins and cole playing together in 2021 is probable but I'm starting to think Cole is a shoot first pass second PG based on what others are saying.

and it's not just a matter of danny wanting to play 2 PGs together. it's more about the PGs agreeing to share the ball handling and being happy playing off ball. some PGs don't want to do that.

Great looking shot! They were in Middletown last month and that’s where this video is from.

Based on last year, Gaffney is a pure point, but i won't be shocked if he plays with Cole as a junior.

a lot of posters think he's going to start alongside Cole this year as a sophomore

Good looking player for a youngster. Nice stroke, good body already and some hops. The web is spread nicely.

I remember playing an aau game against the Lightning when they had Luol Deng and Sebastian Telfair. This was back when players switched aau teams within the same season because I had seen Telfair playing for another team (maybe the Gauchos?) a couple weeks earlier.

He looks the part, love his release (and his gather dip lolllll)
The putback dunk surprised me, sneaky strong athleticism.

Are one on one step back drills more or less impressive than chair crossovers? Would love to see him against real competition.

Chairs make all the difference.....just ask Ajou Deng.

Good looking shot.

Soft and sweet. Reminds me of Ray's feathery shot.

Situational one on one is always healthy for your game, i.e., catch on the shoulder, one dribble, create a shot. The pros do this and you often see it replicated as an in-game go to. I'm not a huge fan of one on one outside of situational, if you're looking to develop your game.

Yes it is.

I was thinking more of Ben's high arcing shots, but yeah it looks good going through rim
