A nice photo gallery on the official site of the Cs. All youngsters putting the offseason work together, including Smart, PJ III and Young. Looking good, the kids.

This reminded me how young the roster is. Adding AB, Sully, KO, Crowder and Zeller, and we have a huge 25 and under group. ET and IT are by no means ancient too. Internal growth should be a thing in the next years.

Two things stood out from the photos:

1) Young really looks like he packed on muscle this offseason. I didn't really get a feel for that in summer league, but it really shows here.

2) The last pic of Smart: Dude looks more chiseled than last year, if you ask me.

15 pounds of muscle, perhaps?
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

TRoze looks like he's ready to go!

I believe he flew out right after his day with the kids yesterday, which likely was to get back down to working out with his trainer in FL.

I think this kind of commitment is going to pay off:

all looking good.  Mickey is in good condition for a 1st year rookie big man.

Good Lord, can the freaking season start already?! lol  :'(

It's really tough being a sports fan who only enjoys one sport, basketball!

It's nice to see the new, young guys putting some work in.

I like seeing Young doing more strength training. I think his body at this point is more important right now for him. I saw some aggressiveness from him in the summer league but I just don't think he can drive as much as he wants because he's skinny. I hope Hunter and Young push each other around...it'll only do them good

I think a certain player would have been better served working out here than in Texas.  Those harnesses are for cross fit and power training, not jogging and the like, the former is much harder.

Good for team morale and cohesion to work out like this, too.

This reminded me how young the roster is. Adding AB, Sully, KO, Crowder and Zeller, and we have a huge 25 and under group. ET and IT are by no means ancient too. Internal growth should be a thing in the next years.

Definitely. The only player over 30 on the entire roster is David Lee.

TP this is the closest thing we've had to news in a while.
