    Leave on a good note before he is further embarrassed and exposed?

    Definitely. Most likely, they won't play him in any exhibition or regular season games either, to protect him from being embarrassed and exposed. At this point, it's really about salvaging his emotional well-being--his basketball career is not salvageable.

    the games have been boring anyway. Even when this dude scores 27 and grabs 12 rebs it's a snooze fest.

    Half of those high lotto picks do play 2 games at most.

    Keyonte George is different as Utah has two Summer League tourneys.

    Lol he’s an idiot. I can’t wait to see him get thrown around this season. He thinks SL is nba basketball.

    Gumby is in for a rude awakening.

    There is nothing about his game that is exciting. He’s just tall and mobile. He’s not electrifying. He doesn’t have any natural elite skills like passing or even power jams. Footwork isn’t special. I get he’s young and he has the physical intangibles, but I’ve never been less interested in seeing a #1 pick play.
    Note: I recognize he’s young and Giannis wasn’t special outside his body when he was drafted.

    He’s played two SL games and now he’s an NBA expert?

    He's not the first Euro to say that.

    And... Giannis still isn't an interesting player to watch, TBH.

    From what I've seen it is. That said Wemby is going to break down in the NBA.

    He is right, however, the speed and athleticism is much higher in the NBA.

    i do want to say even though SL Wemby was boring. that one game when he was playing Scoot with his French team was fun. This Spurs "team" play is boring to watch with Wemby. he is def more exciting when he is being force fed the ball

    Draymond translation: your eyes haven’t met my fingers yet, your balls haven’t met me knees/legs yet and your ribs haven’t met my elbows yet. Pipe down.
