Are we already seeing Caleb Wilson adjust to the NBA game? And if that's the case, now it's only been a two-game sample size.

Terrence HayesHost

1:55

And we'll talk about the things in both sides of that.

Terrence HayesHost

1:57

But against Toronto, it was rough.

Terrence HayesHost

1:59

It was a real rough game for Caleb Wilson against Toronto.

Terrence HayesHost

2:02

Everybody would say that, right? Look at it.

Terrence HayesHost

2:21

I think when you look at this, the biggest improvement wasn't just the scoring.

Terrence HayesHost

2:25

It was the decision-making that's there.

Terrence HayesHost

2:27

That's the thing that really stood out there.

His turnovers dropped.

He scored five more points.

Terrence HayesHost

2:39

while becoming a much more efficient player, and he looked better positioned to contribute without forcing anything.

Terrence HayesHost

2:44

Now, there were some times where he took some bad shots.

Terrence HayesHost

2:47

That's going to happen.

Terrence HayesHost

2:48

I'm not worried about that.

Terrence HayesHost

2:49

Against Toronto, Caleb Wilson was struggling because of the NBA speed, the size that Toronto has, the spacing on the floor, all those type of stuff.
