Michigan Players in the NBA

No Livers today for the Pistons. If he’s healthy, he should be getting some run. The team is awful. You might as well give him a look.

ROY is looking like a real possibility

The Warriors would have been a cheat code if they had the foresight to draft Franz.

Warriors have a ton of wing depth so I don’t think he would be getting near as much opportunity. It is very intriguing to think of him in that system though. Overall I haven’t been impressed with the Warriors drafting for the last 6-7 years. In fact I’d go so far as to say it’s been downright awful

Definitely makes it seem them drafting Steph, Klay, and Draymond was more dumb luck than anything else. For such an analytically driven franchise, Franz should have been a no brainer.

I thought JP was a great pick!

Now do Lamelo Ball instead of Wiseman…

Looks like he wasn’t active?

Yea Wiseman over Ball is a tragic mistake that’s gone kinda underrated Bob Myers rarely gets much flak from the national media types. If they had Lamelo on-court or the equivalent of his trade value they’d be a surefire title favorite with Kyrie out

As it stands now, Franz should be racking up some third place votes for ROY. In many other years, this level of play would be good enough (who remembers ROY Malcolm Brogdon). Mobley and Barnes are ahead I think.

14 points, 11 boards, 6 assists on a down shooting night from Point Franz tonight

To be fair, Kuminga could be pretty good too. And just dropped 26 in his first start.

It is 2 games now that Moritz Wagner and 3 other players have been replaced on the roster by 4 players from the G league.

They did this to Moe after a game where he scored quite a few points with good shooting percentages for both 2’s and 3’s.

Is his career at Orlando done?

I believe Orlando is dealing with Covid protocols.

He has COVID, as do the others. That being said, he had been getting some DNP’s there at full strength.

All of the NBA results are pretty meaningless at the moment. Kuminga had a nice game for a Warrior team that played 3 rotation players (Looney, the Mitten and JTA).

That’s correct.

Somewhat Michigan-related: Josh Christopher had a pretty decent game against the Pistons.
