Pele’s talent is on full display

After talking about the game, let’s talk about the performance of the players. In this campaign, Bailey made 8 of 13 shots and 2 of 5 three-pointers. He scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 2 steals. His scoring exploded. His performance was indeed very strong. He scored 7 points in a row in the second quarter. A rookie's excellent continuous scoring ability is enough to illustrate his talent. He took three steps from the three-point line to layup and relied on his long arms to easily complete steals. His future ceiling is worth looking forward to. The Jazz will make a lot of money by taking him with the fifth overall pick.

Sensabaugh is worth mentioning. Since last season, the Jazz have intended to train him to be Clarkson's successor. Now it seems that they have achieved their goal. In this campaign, Sensabaugh made 6 of 13 shots and scored 26 points and 1 assist. This guy looks like Anthony when he smiles. In this campaign, Kyle Lee and Love also got opportunities to play. Kyle Lee's personal offense was still not started, but he sent 4 assists, and Love got 8 points and 3 rebounds.

Clayton, another rookie the team won this summer, finally proved himself. He scored 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists on 6 of 12 shots. As the university's MOP, his singles ability is very strong. Yes, he just played too uniquely. If he finds his position in the future, he will get more playing time. What the Jazz have to do now is to give Bailey more ball rights. Bailey played a lot without the ball in this game. Based on his ability, he should be given more ball rights to develop ball-handlers.

The second place in the new class is so outstanding.

In this game, Wenban performed as everyone expected. He made 6 of 10 shots from the field and 1 of 4 three-pointers. He scored 22 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. In this game, Wenban showed The skills he learned from Olajuwon, and now his turns are so smooth. The cooperation between him and second-placed Harper in this game is also great. Harper sent alley-oops to Wenban in this game, and Wenban created a scoring opportunity for Harper in the pick-and-roll.

Harper made 4 of 6 shots and scored 9 points and 3 assists. He played such a performance in 18 minutes. Moreover, after he came on the court, the Spurs' offense became much smoother. To put it bluntly, he looked very similar. Harden knows how to control the field and find the right teammates. His plus-minus value in this game is as high as +20, the highest in the team. This already illustrates his value. In terms of performance in this game, he is better than Bailey, because Harper has been able to help the team win.

In this campaign, Cornet scored 7 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks on 2-for-4 shooting. It was too smart for the Spurs to take Cornet. His frame protection and inside finishing ability are what the Spurs need. The twin-tower combination of him and Wenban will also give many teams a headache. In this campaign, Vassell made 6-of-8 from the field and scored 18 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal. Although he performed very well, it is estimated that he and Fox will not be able to stay with the Spurs for a long time in the future.
