<v Speaker 2>Time for the Rookie Report.

0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:45.879
<v Speaker 1>Uh Kia just dropped its Rookie Ladder of the Year.

0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:49.040
<v Speaker 2>Not surprisingly, Zach Edie is number one, which we knew

0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:52.200
<v Speaker 2>that was gonna happen because he's fucking balling. The rest

0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 2>of the list is kind of wild. We got some

0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:59.680
<v Speaker 2>dark horses making noise. I wanted to talk about the

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 2>Dons Ryan Dunn for a while now, for weeks now,

0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:06.400
<v Speaker 2>actually so much I've been wanting to talk to him.

0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:09.600
<v Speaker 2>It actually caused a little bit of a scuffle today. Six'

0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 2>eight forward out Of. Virginia all of a, sudden he

0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:16.960
<v Speaker 2>gets a. Jumper where the fuck did the jumper come?

0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:20.959
<v Speaker 2>From lockdown? Defense six' eight making a big splash in.

0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 2>The valley twenty eighth pick in the draft is shooting

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 2>thirty six percent, from three which is shocking considered a

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:32.680
<v Speaker 2>lot of draft gurus considered him a zero. On offense

0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:36.399
<v Speaker 2>zero kind. Of crazy he is not, a zero but

0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:38.120
<v Speaker 2>he's Not the rookie Of. The week though he's not

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:41.160

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 2>he's the best young prospect On. THE wizards i think

0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:48.280
<v Speaker 2>he has a chance to be the best point guard

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 2>in the previous. Draft class and if he's a TEN year,

0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:53.800

<v Speaker 5>organization got some guys that they can look forward with

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:12.160
<v Speaker 5>and that's that's an, exciting thing.

0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:16.800
<v Speaker 4>You know but to get back, ON topic i like

0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:17.840
<v Speaker 4>those young guys. A lot.

0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:21.920
<v Speaker 5>They are they just got a demeanor and then they.

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.680

0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:26.599
<v Speaker 5>raw rock guy. Out there they got game to go,

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.240
<v Speaker 5>with it and so They got they earned my respect

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:29.360
<v Speaker 5>to that.

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:33.360
<v Speaker 2>For Sure you bob had a crossover step back over

0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:37.440
<v Speaker 2>steph in that game that had eyebrows being. Raised everywhere

0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:39.960
<v Speaker 2>he's also averaging just one and a half turnovers per

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:40.240
<v Speaker 2>game in.

0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:40.880
<v Speaker 5>Thirty minutes.

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:42.360
<v Speaker 1>That's crazy that's like.

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.120
<v Speaker 2>No pressing that's what a lot of. Rookies do if

0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 2>you look at a lot of rookies in, their stats

0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:49.719
<v Speaker 2>a lot of them are turning the ball over because

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:52.359
<v Speaker 2>they're trying to do too much prove that they belong in,

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.919
<v Speaker 2>the league trying to prove that THEY understand. Nba defenses

0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 2>all that stuff. Takes time and you Know WHAT i'm

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:02.720
<v Speaker 2>i love Most About bub he was a short king

0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.600
<v Speaker 2>for most of. His life he was five to seven as,

0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:09.159
<v Speaker 2>a freshman just over six feet when he graduated, high

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:12.240
<v Speaker 2>school and now he's six' four with a six. To

0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:16.159
<v Speaker 2>eight wingspan but he still plays like a shorty in

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:19.600
<v Speaker 2>terms of his ability to handle the rock and how he.

0:06:19.640 --> 0:06:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Plays the game there's a lot to. Like about it

0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:24.599
<v Speaker 2>so we'll definitely be keeping Our eye on bub.

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:25.320

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:27.160
