Last night was obviously an outlier performance, but actually bumped Andre up to 40.9% from three on the year lol

Andre Jackson: 0.8 3PM/gm at 40.9%
Gary Trent: 1.3 at 27.5%
Bobby Portis: 0.8 at 25.6%
Pat Connaughton: 0.9 at 30.0%

Andre obviously isn’t going to hit 80% of his threes every night but the Bucks are middle of the pack in three point shooting. 1 three a game in the mid 30% is needed by one of the 4 guys. Why not Ajax?
 
Trent struggling from 3 so much is surprising, thought he was a steal for the Bucks at his price considering his production but he hasn't been good
 
Clingan with 21 minutes, 6 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks on 3-4 shooting. Need someone who watched this game to tell me what on earth happened as he was a -20 in 21 minutes, in a 4 point win

Tyrese played 1 garbage time minute. Grabbed a board and hit a three

Drummond and Ajax play today

G League -

Sanogo 19 points and 13 rebounds on 7-13 shooting

Does Vance Jackson count? Was scrolling scores and saw his name. He plays for Toronto’s team, although doesn’t seem like he gets many minutes. 7 minutes and 0-2 last night

Newton and Bouknight play today

Portland's a new team since DC has started.

I think their over/under on wins for the season was like 22. They are going to crush that total even if they go full Cooper Flagg mode at the end of the season. As we know, Clingan helps winning.

I haven’t followed but Sanogo is so great and he’s still in G? Will he get a decent chance to play and stay at the next level?

He's on a two way deal so he is eligible to swing between the G League team and NBA team. Last night would have been a good opportunity for garbage time NBA minutes as Chicago got blown out by 30+. He has gotten a few minutes in 2 games this year. Last year he got a lot of minutes in one of their last games of the season and had 22pts/20reb

I thought the Bulls would blow it up and rebuild, but seems like they are still trying (but failing) to win. I assume Vucevic will get traded eventually which could open up some Sanogo minutes. But right now he's the third C on the depth chart so is mostly in the G League

I can’t believe that there isn’t some team that could benefit from his tenacity and rebounding. I admit to not knowing much about the NBA.

He actually looked really good in the Summer League. I think it's just a matter of him being a 6'9 low post C in the modern NBA that requires floor spacing

If Sanogo had been around in the early 90's, he'd be getting plenty of PT on an NBA team. Unfortunately, today's game is either 1) You can shoot the 3, or 2) you are an elite defender. If you aren't either of those 2 (especially as an undersized big man), gonna be tough to crack any lineup unfortunately.

Nice. So Cam is the only one of the 7 in the past two drafts not to play in the NBA yet. Sanogo, Jackson, Hawkins, Clingan, Newton, Castle, + Bouk and Martin. Impressive list for Hurley since he has been at UConn (9 draft picks and 8 having seen PT at some point).

Bouknight is playing well in G-league, not sure he can make it back up through the Blazers though, they are pretty stacked at guard. He's always seemed much better than most G-league players but not quite good enough for the NBA.

AJax got hurt? Didn't watch, he started and only played 5 minutes

I don't think so. It was just that Gary Trent Jr was playing (and shooting) well. Andre got in for the last defensive possession to seal the W (although they were extremely lucky because there was a complete defensive breakdown and Sengun was wide open for the win, the pass was just horrible).
