Nobody is eating crow yet. He had a good summer league - which is awesome - but

he hasn't played a single minute in the actual NBA yet. I will openly admit that I didn't think he was NBA material, and maybe I will be proven wrong on that (which would be great, obviously), but that certainly hasn't been proven yet.

Is he better than the guys the Jazz signed?

Maybe. I'm not sure he fits the type of player the Jazz were looking for.

Never trust my NBA talent evaluation, cuz I would have said no chance for him

I thought he had a chance because of his deliberate pace. There are plenty of

Mika's measurables are not good. He has T Rex arms.

This. Summer league all-star means nothing except maybe potential.

Agreed - but him getting offers is more than I expected

This would be awesome. Jazz?

No. Jazz only have two spots left and they are for training camp only.

I'm sure the interest is for a G-league or possibly 2-way contract.

An NBA offer would have to be a roster spot or a two way contract

Cougz19

An NBA team can sign a player to a contract and then assign that player

SoCalCoug

7/18/19 1:13pm

I thought you had to have the draft rights to do that?

Cougz19

I don't believe so.

Are you sure? How can you be so sure?

If he would have stayed another year at BYU he would be signing a max contract
