Musa’s one to watch. Like Kurucs, he could be a real find for the Nets.
Very true man, they’re just so deep at playmakers and that’s where he’s best. I think it gets thinned out in the offseason probably by trading Napier but he’s still behind Dlo, Dinwiddie and Levert. Can’t believe these Euro prospects went so late in the draft. They were unanimous 2nd and 3rd behind Doncic but then again Doncic went 3rd overall and he’s by far and away the best rookie.
