Since OKC is essentially running a 4A team down the stretch of the NBA season, I hope X to the Z gets some time up there.

He really has had a good season in the G-League. I do hope he at least gets a cup of coffee in the NBA to say he made it there.

Shooting 34% from three - respectable! Someone call him up late season!

I want to see the Pistons call up Walton and OKC to call up X, and let them go mano a mano tonight!

imagine if you dropped a fully-seasoned, 27-year-old Derrick Walton on the Mich team next year. 35/15/6?

I did Pts/Ast/Reb since he’s a PG. but 35/6/15 in your format

I kind of feel like the Pistons brought in Carsen Edwards instead of Walton to keep the Cruise strong at PG in the post-season.

I sat courtside for one of his G-League games. It’s amazing how fast he can rip down a rebound and get the ball up the court. Can’t imagine what a speedster NBA PG looks like.

Any Michigan players who end up on the Grand Rapids Gold will be playing in a different venue next season.

I would guess that would be Van Andel in GR or Walker Arena in Muskegon?
There’s talks of them playing at the Van Andel Arena. That’s the only place that makes sense
