Kings sure aren’t marketing these kids like the 24th and 42nd picks in the draft lol
Some shots just don’t fall. What we should be looking at is confidence, defense, and decision making. If he went 11/11 it still wouldn’t matter in summer league lol like, at all.Carter 2/11 FG
Not exactly showcasing
If they trade him because of a summer league game then they were already planning to. That would be ridiculous lol now, if he’s scoring on his own hoop and doing something absolutely egregious then have at it.Carter is going to have to shoot better than 2-14 if he wants to stay on the Kings. And not be traded.
Carter seems to be more of a rhythm guy. He needs to find some ways to make his offense more effective.
Cooper Flagg was 5 of 21 from the floor btw. Should the Mavs look to ship him out by midnight tonight, or nah?
You’re basing your conclusion on 1 summer league game……. Haha okayYou mean 6'8" Tristan Da Silva? The guy who played 3/4 for Orlando last year and was a regular rotation player for a playoff team? The guy who is a promising young wing in the NBA? You mean our new rookie matched up with him most of the night?
But I thought he couldn't possible guard 3s? Sactowndog is in ruins...
And you based your conclusion that he can't guard 3s on what??? His mixtape??? I love that you can conclusively state what a player will be and won't be off of no actual game experience, but then I am not allowed to use an actual game experience to point out the opposite.You’re basing your conclusion on 1 summer league game……. Haha okay
not only the smallest but the one of the worst samples you can get.I agree that 1 summer league game is about the smallest sample size you can rely on. But its more than you've got at this point...
Carter 2/11 FG

Devin Carter: C
Might seem high if you just look at the shooting numbers, but he was incredibly good defensively

After watching Carter tonight, I'm not going to be super upset if he's part of a trade now. I was honestly expecting much, much more out of him.
The question is not what the fans think, it's what the front office thinks. Carter is already on the trading block, with only a short opportunity to show what he can do. Supposedly, Jonathan Kuminga is meeting with teams, including the Kings and the Warriors, in Las Vegas this week. If Devin is still a King by the end of next week, none of this matters.So, if Carter goes for 30+ and looks all world in the next SL game — then you’ll be back on the “I’ll be upset if he’s traded” train?
I mean, since one SL is all it takes to get on or off the bandwagon, I’d assume the answer to be “yes”.
I was honestly expecting much, much more from the typical overact to SL crowd here at KF — hoping they’d finally learned their lesson. But now I’m disappointed too. So at least we have that in common.
It would be nice if kuminga bets on himself and signs for 1 year of the full MLE.The Warriors are still trying to avoid trading Kuminga to the Kings, it appears, since the Kings are in the same division. But their options are limited right now. The whole situation is weird
Relax folks. It’s great the rookies looked good. Maxime showed he has high bball IQ. Is he already the next Joker. No, but it is a good sign that he is capable. Let people have some joy rooting for him.not only the smallest but the one of the worst samples you can get.
Even training camp against real NBA players is a better way to judge them, as they earn most their minutes there, not in summer league.
