Im surprised Eason will be there. What about Amen?
Eason opting to play since he didn’t get a lot of minutes in the regular season from injury. Can’t knock that, and he’ll probably end up playing 2-3 games like Cam and potentially Amen.
I see no negatives of the young guys playing over the summer. They have young legs overworking is less of a concern.
Jabari and Amen are at US select
Also, really excited to see Cam Whitmore develop. I really believe he might hit the highest ceiling of our core. Remember, he‘s a ways away to even drink legally
Every year we have the most stacked summer league team to start off and then by the 4th game everyone has been benched lol. Not complaining just an observation
Wonder if Griffin will plat too
The whole team finna show 😂
Amen/Sheppard/Cam/Tari/Dante … my god
[A.J. Griffin will play as well](https://x.com/kellyiko/status/1806793543467356455?s=46&t=7DrDqF7un_dq-OJJZFAEBQ)
There was a correction. It’s Cam Whitmore and AJ Griffin, not Tari Eason.
