Backed candied with marshmallows are fantastic.  It's the southern coming out in me.  Yes, this is Sarcasm, I know what the OP means!

Looks great but we must be grounded too

In 2019-20, James Young was the top scorer in the Israel Basketball Premier League, with an average of 20.5 points per game

The Turnovers are bad but Yam just turned 20. How old was James Young when he played in the Israel Basketball Premier League?

An update on Yam!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLRzoXwXUm0

He's currently starring, especially for a 20 year-old. Put up 24 and 6 against a team with former NBA players such as Omri Casspi, Tyler Dorsey, Dragan Bender and old friend Ante Zizic. He's playing at as high a level as Deni Avdija was last year, if not even higher, and Deni has been solid. What most impresses me about Yam is his defence - it's legit.
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)

PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)

Looks good, but so does everyone in these highlight clips.

Most of Yam's games generate highlights, as he's averaging 16.6PPG, 4.9APG and 2.6RPG on good efficiency

I haven't paid attention to Yam at all. Are we thinking he might be coming over next season?

I don't.

Aren't yams usually a dull color (white, red or purplish). So how do they shine??

I would be fully on board with bringing him over to replace Teague (I don't foresee him sticking around) as a guy to battle it out for that third string PG spot. Like Yam more than Waters

Maccabi is a pretty decent Euroeleague team with a bunch of players that used to play in the NBA, so that's encouraging. On the other hand, he was only 8/21, so it'd be nice to see him be a little more efficient.

I'm not a fan of the sweet potato, but I do like Yam.   Hope he's ready next year.
