UConn in the Pros December 2025

[HuskyNan]

Newton: averaging 26/8/4 in the G League

Cam: averaging 12 points a game on 50/50/90 in the league

Castle: NBA ROY averaging 18/7/6 and 50% shooting

Karaban: back leading an elite top 5 UConn team

Clingan: starting C in the league averaging (almost) a double double and 1.5 blocks

Sheeeeeesh

Cam is clearly a better NBA player than half the lottery picks in his draft. Not bad for the 53rd pick.

 

[Kenny11]

Cam is having the best shooting season.....ever?

Could be better than the majority of that lottery. Only a handful of them are more productive than him. One of them is a teammate. Def a sweet get for the Grizz and as an agnostic NBA fan, now a fan of the grizz.

 

[Umami Zen]

The dudes defending Cam are chirping at him(a mistake) and giving him too much space on the three (disrespect). He'll keep making them pay and keep winning games for the Grizzlies. If they think they can get in his head better than his Brother Pat did in the driveway back in the day-They're wrong.

Cam is a baller. No one is gonna outwork him-esp. getting up shots/prep pre-game. Grizzlies may have to start thinking about doing a re-do of the re-do contract. LOL

Good Lod, Cam! I thought a shooting heater might last 2-3 games - not 10. I think he’s 24/35 from 3 in his last 6 games, and 60 percent over his last 10.

There’s already talk amongst grizzlies fans about getting him in the 3 point contest, b/c he’s lights out in LA.

It's wild. Eye-popping numbers. And he's dishing, too.

 

[HW611]

Picked him up on fantasy waivers and he’s been lethal for me. (Star players average around 40+, 50+ is just awesome)

Josh Giddey, top 2 at his position, in the same time span for reference.

 

[nomar]

And btw, the Grizzlies' first round pick was Cedric Coward, who's also been great. Talk about nailing a draft, jeez. And Edey and Wells (#39) the year before!

 

[Skiblets]

Cam is also changing the culture of that team

Have never seen a second stringer setting the tone for more selfless basketball, intensity and camaraderie. It’s starting to feel more like his team than Ja’s the more Ja is hurt

 

[HooperScooper]

Cam is electric. He does everything with intent and mentally exhausts his defender. He's telling his teammates where to go with the ball on every posession, except Morant. Morant needs to acclimate himself to the team ball blueprint that Spencer has shown this team, I doubt he's capable of that though.

I don't think the Grizzlies will ever win anything with Morant. They should trade him. Heck of a talent and crazy athletic but he's not someone you want as your best player. He's also a knucklehead, which is never a good thing.

 

[OceanDoggie]

He's over 50% on the year now from three, by a bit.

I honestly believe last year's team, with all of its flaws, would have 3peated if Cam was granted that medical redshirt. That and playing Tarris 65% of the minutes at the 5 lol. Cam needed to be in the League though.

More media featuring our boys. No Ceilings is great.

Hardly listen to this pod since JJ left but this is some good insight into what made Cam Cam.

 

[Scottzer]

Here’s another piece on Cam. I can’t help but think that Cam is a better version of the movie Rudy.

Cam taking page out of Larry Bird’s book on trash talking. Love it.

Possibly my favorite Husky, but he is no where good enough to talk trash. Not yet, anyway.

It's really not up to you to decide that

yeah, no. I'm entitled to have an opinion just like anybody else.

You on your phone/pc tweaking and geeking over whether a post should be moved or edited cannot determine which NBA players are allowed to talk trash, that's law.

Well, if it's law, then I'm just going to have to trust you.

Maybe the worst take I’ve ever seen on this board.

You don’t have to gain an arbitrary status to talk trash, that’s not how the sports world works.

I’d assume, and he’s correct in doing so, Cam has talked trash since he started playing competitively.

 

[temery]

You don’t have to gain an arbitrary status to talk trash

You do unless you wanna look like a fool when you're unable to keep up the same numbers. Larry Bird earned his right to talk trash. Cam isn't there yet.
