UConn in the Pros December 2025

[HW611]

Been making the SGA comp since forever and been standing on the table about how he’s an elite PG once he got the chance.

Couldn’t be happier or more proud with his performance in just year 2.

 

[Matrim55]

Bigger, more athletic Jrue. Just needs the shot to come around (last night is what it'll look like if he ever gets it to, say, 36%).

He's going to be our second Hall of Famer.

 

[Huskyforlife]

It’s crazy how many Spurs fans were throwing him in trades after his rookie season. He’s a core piece for sure.

 

[Matrim55]

In other UConn news, Tristen is tearing up the G-League, averaging 26/8/4 on 49/38/86 shooting splits and a 2.5/1 a/to ratio.

I desperately want him to play his way onto an NBA roster and into a real role. I still think there's a real NBA guy in there.

What was the NBA record?

 

[UCLJ0211]

All-Star for sure

 

[jojipoji]

What was the NBA record?

Youngest to have 30/10/5 shooting over 70%

 

[HailUConn]

What’s most impressive to me is that he is always playing both ends of floor and it’s their goo-to defense stopper:

 

[HailUConn]

it’s hard not to be impressed watching him play only in year 2. You know he has that extra gear but he just seems to glide and never rushed. If you watch his game, the game has slowed down so much for him and he’s always in the cruise control to get that 30/10/6 in just 27 mins.

Just watch this highlights reel:

The title to this thread is husky99ish. I thought it was about a rapper. 😀

 

[Deepster]

Better for Liam to be playing in the G league than sitting on he bench watching NBA games.

Is it? How often does that work out well long term? I honestly don't know the answer, but it "feels" like that rarely results in a guy eventually blossoming into a productive starter with consistent heavy minutes.

 

[Waquoit]

This was so great to see. I always fret when our guys come back from an injury. Looks fully healed to me. A tenner on the Spurs money line with profit boost didn't hurt either.

 

[Palatine]

The Hornets are so terrible it's hard to tell if anyone on it is playing well.

Didn’t Cam killed it there? Hopefully Liam can do the same.

This is right. His offense draws the eyes and media but his defense is just as elite.

 

[Deepster]

Cam played 3 games in G League. And was a very late 2nd rd pick.

Liam was a first rounder.

 

[marti3td]

Should have stayed one more year...

 

[Edward Sargent]

Didn’t Cam killed it there? Hopefully Liam can do the same.

Killing it in G league doesn't always translate to getting back to the NBA see Adama and now Newton

 

[aceboon]

Team was off nearly a week due to the Cup games, it's to get Liam additional reps, he's not staying down there.

Great comment by the announce, "man, he's just got such a deep bag". So true! He looks like he's out for a walk in the park as he assassinates guys. The opposite of what the kids call "sweat".

And truly DGAS who he's dealing on.

That’s the comp. He’s gonna be a 23-25 ppg, 6-8 reb, 7-10 assist guy consistently in his prime. Someone mentioned in the other yhread, but his 3pt shot last night looked more fluid and less hitchy/slow developing. Hopefully he can get to low/mid 30’s this year in that area. He has literally everything else.

I was really hoping Flagg joined the Spurs. Victor, Flagg, and Castle is a BIG 3 to build around

NBA Today on ESPN just had Cam and his brother Pat on the show to talk about them both playing in the NBA. Imagine the trash talking between the 2 of them in the driveway pick up games when they were kids?

The Spencer brother story is absolutely legendary. They need to do a 30 for 30 on those two.
