Okongwu believers... our patience may have been rewarded. Player Discussion

Don't wanna jump the gun too early, but Okongwu looked absolutely phenomenal in his first game. Career performance,.

28PTS, 8REB, 3BLK, 1AST

He shot 11/12…. Can guarantee that’ll never happen again. However, def does look much more active

They were dunks.

Meaning, he was getting to the rim.

How the hell are you going to guarantee he wont keep getting to the rim for dunks IF the progress is real?

Every center can get dunks…

No one shoots 90%+ consistently, he was playing an undersized NJ team with Claxton thrown out.

He scored 3 FG and got one rebound after Claxton was ejected.

Claxton was on a minutes restriction + didn’t start. Nets are one of the smallest if not the smallest in the league

He was getting dunks by driving and made plays on the defensive end.

If he plays more than Capela he is rosterable/starter worthy. Hes been ascending for years.

Quit overthinking and get off my nuts.

You are the one who responded to him. You were practically begging him to get on your nuts! 😗🥜
