At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Big fan of this signing. I was always high on him when he declared for the draft but he carries the dubious distinction of being taken over Paul George by the Clippers.

Comes from a line of Nigerian Kings. His name means 'the chief has arrived'.

Great stopgap option to eat some of Richardson's minutes.

He can shoot the ball and play defense …didn’t know he was out of the league.

Aminu might actually be a serviceable player for the end of the roster if the Covid quarantines end this season

Just 31 years old! Almost a rookie compared to Iso Joe. He still got a decade of basketball in him!

 I’d be surprised if my of these guys get playtime. In practice maybe or in blowouts. It’s really hard for them to pick up the offensive and defensive schemes in a day or two.
