'He's fearless': Pelicans rookie Jordan Hawkins is on a quest to be NBA's next great shooter

"As a movement shooter, he's probably one of the best prospects to come out in a long time," teammate Trey Murphy said of Jordan Hawkins.

And yet his stats suck

How about you root for the kid and not say stupid things like this!

I am rooting for him but it is the truth. Sorry that upsets you. NBA is tough and 50 talented guys want your spot

Clingan coming alive! Got a tip in off his own miss (good contest by Bona), forced a turnover because the driver panicked when he saw DC in the paint, ran the floor and got a layup on the other end

Clngan only played a few minutes before going to the bench (conditioning?) but has owned the paint in the time he’s out there. 2 blocks in 4 minutes

Just got two quick buckets.

Whaley got the first three minutes, hit a three and didn't get back in. Not sure why.

Cam is killing it with 5/7 for 11 points 3 assists, 3 boards, 1 TO, 1 Steal

 

[Gutter King]

Cam playing well again 12 points with 2 3 pointers. He also has made some great passes. He belongs on the team. He started the game over Wells.

I love how Memphis is letting him make his case. He's doing the same exact things he did for us. What a baller.

 

[REB1094]

Cam limping off the court, looks okay so hopefully this is just precautionary

Clingan is owning the paint. Guys are terrified going up against him. Still struggling to score other than those 2 layups

 

[Leebo]

Smacking the stanchion is a tech?

 

[UConnSwag11]

Why have Clingan out there at all? Such a sh…. Offense and flow

Hopefully Cam's ankle isn't cooked, he was having another great game

 

[aceboon]

Coach Jenkins for Memphis with high praise for Cam on the broadcast, said he feels he can be a big contributor this season

He looked okay walking off getting water

Cam will seamlessly fill in for Kennard after this year…and maybe even take his place this year.

Grizzlies with him and DC would have become my favorite team. Too bad they couldn’t trade up.

Donovan just threw down a massive dunk.

DC with a great dunk

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Donovan just threw down a massive dunk.

And added a great pass to a cutter a few plays later. We’ll ignore getting a big dunk thrown down on him inbetween.

I believe the announcer said he has 15 blocks so far this summer.

Was talking about Bona, who has played more games.

Thanks. I think DC only has 7 blocks so far.

 

[TRest]

I po

How so?

sted that after his really uninspired first half, where he drifted around jacking threes, and getting shut down every time he tried to drive. It reminded me of Bouk’s last summer league where he couldn’t get anything going.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

DC shooting 3-9 after going 1-8. Not very good to see as a 7’2 guy.

His guards have gotten him 0 lobs. It's impossible for big guys in summer league.

huge block by DC

DC won the game for the blazers. Blocked a 3 to get his team possession and then caused a 5 second violation guarding the inbounder
