Break Out the Strawberries

My custom-made Strawbeery jersey is making more sense.

DJ plays before Banks -- and gets some PT in the first half. Sure, he's not going to get 1st-half PT against good teams, but it's something. He's going to be good somewhere. I hope it's here.

He looked pretty good in his time too. He wasn't really tested on D against a strong ball handling guard but he didn't force shots on offense but still didn't hesitate to take the open ones. You kind of felt he was tight and the only cure for that is more meaningful floor time.

One thing I really really loved was how he looked to rebound on both ends. He only had 2 in about 20 minutes but unlike most of the Suns guards when the ball went up he was coming in from the 3 pt line looking for the ball. I think he could average about 5-7 rebounds and be a regular double double threat. I still don't expect him to get regular minutes this year for Coach D but I agree that he's got a nice upside. I hope he sticks.
