Waiting for a signature Loyer trailer 3.
Illini in the Pros (Basketball)
Feel like Keatons had a few play ons that would be called in regular season. He reads the game so well….he will he will be just fine.
I feel like he did pretty serviceable on DP, especially for how he was rated as a defender coming in.
He's been very good defensively in these games. Better than expected.

the tales of Keaton waglers demise were clearly premature.
I feel like he did this a lot for us this year... solid but quiet first half then boom all of a sudden he's got 20 mid way through the second half.

Watchin Riley tonight I start to wonder what the best version of him he could turn into. To me it’s Klay Thompson. I think he has alot of how Klay plays in his game.
Iowa / Nebraska / Northwestern — all road games — come to mind.
Keaton's gonna need 2 years to fill that body out. But I have a feeling by Year 4 Clippers fans will be VERY happy with their selection
His feel for the game will serve him well while he develops, and he's a VERY skilled shooter. The regular season of the NBA almost isn't recognizable compared to the playoffs we just saw, so he'll have time to adjust and get some weight on.
His progression is unreal. Can't think of another story like his. Will be interesting to see how far he goes.
Yes, and there's nothing wrong with being that kind of player.
Catch and shoot savant, and more than capable as a secondary handler: that's starter-on-a-great-team level upside along with a very high floor.
You don't need to be a superstar just because you're the 5th pick. Those guys went in the top 4.
Acuff is the "how pass on him??" guy everyone keeps talking about. Perhaps he's the lone one with that kind of ceiling amongst guys who went 5 and up. But if you're gonna make that argument against wagler, you'd much rather with Brown Jr as well who went 6th.
He looked the same last night
It's a nice step forward, largely based on shots falling more as expected. Still will be a process to build his physicals tools to match his feel and skills.
Ball pressure still seemed to bother him, but a bit less. Still got blown by too easily off the bounce, but recovered with more aggression and fought in switches. It will take time, but the shooting helps paint a clearer picture of where he can get to.

If Keaton just turned this into a DRose back scratcher, the (twitter) world would be at peace
Catch and Shoot Specialist is far from a bad thing.
League leaders in Catch and Shoot threes per game:
1. Kon Knueppel
2. Nickeil Alexander Walker
3. Michael Porter Jr.
4. Moses Moody
5. Don't Divincenzo
6. Sam Merril
7. AJ Green
8. Brandon Miller
9. Devin Vessell
10. Duncan Robinson
Not all are the most flashy MVP candidates, but all of them have jobs and will last in the league for a long time.
