It’s really impressive. Makes me long for the days when we had such high hopes for Ty. I think it’s time we move on from him at this point.

Hope everyone is doing well!

I kind of felt like we would start to see more of him in the second half of the season but am a little unsettled that the coaching staff must not have seen the growth we were all hoping for. He needs to break out some how. Maybe in summer league. I’d just really like it if we had an idealized version of Moose on the bench at the 9 or 10 spot for situational purposes. He could be a real Joker helper if he could get on and stay on the court.

I was just thinking about watching his offensive rebounding efforts, reminded me of Manimal. The effort yes, but not quite the finishing ability.

Finishing is a concern, but hopefully that develops as he gets stronger
