    Imagine how good he’ll be when he realizes he has 2 hands to dribble with

    That's a pretty limited highlight tape, but he wasn't exclusively right handed in it, finished with the left once and dribbled with the left a couple of times. The problem is every time he dribbled with the left he shot the J, every time he dribbled with the right he drove. If that small sample is an accurate reflection of his game, teams will pick up on that pretty quickly. I'm a righty that always prefers shooting off a left hand dribble as well so I get it, but I prefer driving left too. Hopefully he'll show the ability to do more than shoot a jumper when the balls in his south paw.

    He was more of an athlete than a polished player last year. If he can make defenders respect his shot he’ll be a real handful for teams. If Naz can round his offensive game out to something close to what Nowell has he’s a all conference lock.

    Hard to imagine him ever having Nowell's polish, with his athleticism and length that's NBA All Star talent.

    For now I'd be happy with him forcing teams to guard him.
    This. By his senior year Naz, if Hop develops players the way I think he does, will be an all-american.

    Come on guys, anything in summer should be treated like SUMMER LEAGUE. Sure, a few of the guys may have a personal beef to play hard for a possession or two, but if you actually pay attention to his 3 pointers in that shortened film there was literally zero pressure with no screens causing a reason for a defender to drop off. It's what we like to call summer league defense. You shoot and if you make it i'll run back and get the ball to go make my own attempt. I'm also very concerned about the amount of white kids on the floor(yes i went there) if we're comparing to Pac12 level success.

    I hate to go DNC on you all, but the help defense in those clips made the IMA blush.

    Let's wait till the men come out to play defense this fall before super stroking it.
