No. It didn't get pushed out. It was an unconfirmed claim from an uncomfirmed source making a wild guess.

I'm sure he pulls in plenty of asses on a nightly basis currently.

How you gonna be a rookie and be falling asleep on the bench? Hope it was due to pain meds because that’s just disrespectful.

Sekou Jeffrey Jordan was inexplicably benched. What other incentive was there to watch the remainder of that 4th quarter?

Sarcasm, buffoonery, and antics aside. What would actually constitute a bust for this guy?

He’s an adult making 10s of millions of dollars a year now. He should be judged.

Honestly I’m expecting ~19/8 from him this year. Minutes restriction for probably a few weeks will keep his per game stats relatively low. BI is trying to prove himself on that team, so I think he’ll continue to take the lions share of shots. I think the fulfillment of his hype depends primarily on highlight dunks. A handful of those per week and he’ll be on track.

Pretty spot on. If he's anything like he was in preseason even during limited minutes, that will be enough for the hobby to be giddy about his future prospects heading into next year. They want to see if he still has that same ridiculous explosiveness and motor that set him apart from the competition.

While everyone is enamored with his dunking ability, I'm more going to be analyzing his defense and rotations. This dude had a top 5 collegiate season of all time as a freshman because of his equally impressive defense. If he can bring that to the nba...he's going to be a killer.


2 way elite forwards run the hobby.

Apparently, there are no plans to limit his minutes.

that is definitely a good sign! if he's up around 30-34 minutes from the start, I could see him putting up 20/10
