Javon Small

It's 21 guaranteed contracts at the moment.

with two two-ways under their belt, with Javon Small and Jemai Meshack being the two-way deals.

They did just bring in a couple of new draft picks.

Obviously, Cameron Boozer, the third overall pick that everybody's excited to watch this year.

He's, like, an analytics god.

It, Scotty Pippen, Cam Spencer, Jevon Small, like, all these guys are good players.

They're not great players.

They might not even be starter quality necessarily.

Um, I, I honestly think neither of these guys are gonna be on the roster when it's all said and done.

But, um, I mean, if you look at the second round draft picks that we've gotten in the past years, we've got some, uh, contributors like Wells, um, and like Majok, um, and Javon Small.

Um, did we get Gigi in, in the second round?

Yeah, he was second round.

So, these are just guards on the Grizzlies' current roster.

Scottie Pippen Jr., Ty Jerome, Walter Clayton, D'Angelo Russell, Javon Small.

PV's more of a, like, in-betweener, right? He's a

guard, but he's more of a two-guard than he is a

He's a really good passer, and he likes to run in transition as well.

I think he's a better option than any of the other point guards on the team like Javon Small or Scottie Pippen

Jr.,

walter clayton jr the one guy that could be a wild card in all this next year is gigi jackson like does he take a leap next year there's a possible chance that that happens and maybe you take out wells you throw him in maybe jeremy grant gives him a good option as well because he could space the floor he's an all-right defender like he could just be more reliable than jalen wells but i think there's a good chance jerome coward wells boozer ed is their most effective five-man lineup it will definitely be their most entertaining five-man lineup that's for sure All right, next up for the Miami Heat.

You didn't have Scottie Pippen Jr.

So you had to go from John Morant to Javon Small or John Morant to maybe move Cam Spencer over to point guard or whatever the case may be.

It just wasn't as natural of a flow, but the team has more depth now.

So you can be that team that gets off to those fast starts and you tire out the opponent and you're playing hard.

[laughs]

Why aren't, why aren't we, we s- we getting him? Like Javon Small, give him the ball, man.

But yeah, I think he's gonna have the ball in his hands constantly.

I think he's probably gonna be first team all rookie because of his opportunity and the fact that he's probably their go-to scorer.

If we really wanted to play a large lineup to start, we could slot in Jeremy Grant, move Cedric Coward up to the two, and you could play that way where Ty Jerome is your smallest guy.

I, you know, Javon small also got some good minutes in summer league.

So he could be in the rotation as well.

And we haven't even gotten down to the, to the jazz guys that we traded for last year with Jaron in the Jaron trade.

Um, and so with all of that, you know, I, I do foresee a place for Richie Saunders, but he's also coming off the injury.

So wouldn't be shocked to see like a, um, you know, a hustle contract and then he gets brought up halfway through the season.

If we have an open two way or something like that, uh, I wouldn't be shocked if Javon Small is elevated to the main roster at some point, but again, it has to do more with roster spots than anything else.

If you look at our books, it is completely clean after this year, except for Jeremy Grant's $36 million player option, which we assume he's probably going to pick up.
