Photo by Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images TriVincenzo . . . DonTrey . . . Whatever you call him, the Big Ragu has been a bucket. I’ll admit, I’ve been somewhat critical of Donte DiVincenzo and the start he had offensively this season, but there’s a reason why.

Now tell me Julius Randle is having a “slow start to the 2023-24 season.” Randle is playing his 10th season of pro hoops since he landed in the Association coming out of Kentucky. He did so by getting drafted as a top-10 pick by the Los Angeles Lakers in 2014. Seventh...
