Woah. Interesting.

I wonder if this played a part on why KZ never was able to keep a rotation slot? Maybe just battling injuries the whole year?

I liked what i saw from dozier. Not a rotation guy so doesnt move the needle but made some plays when he was in

The interesting part about Dozier is he actually WAS a rotation guy for DEN's playoff rotation a few years back before he got hurt. Just a big bully guard/wing defender that looked to be an ascending part of that Denver core. I know they were super high on him.

He's been ripping up the G-League this year

32.7 MPG
20.5 PPG
5.8 RPG
4.0 APG
1.4 SPG
37.5% from 3 on 8.7 3PA (woah)
58% TS

As a guy primarily known for his defense, those are some real encouraging signs he's getting his legs back and maybe finding some semblance of an offensive game as a pro.

That might explain certain things.

 

[Turgenev]

A little extra depth for the rest of the season but could also be an audition for next year in case we cannot keep TD.

Kessler might be a better long term prospect for us even if he’s only 80% the defender KZ is anyways.
