But for different reasons

love OG but I can probably name 20+ better two way players

I mean OG makes a ton of $ and has an injury history as well.

I could argue that OG is underpaid, or at least has a reasonable salary comparing to some of the contracts in the league. OG is my dude, I'll defend him always forever, even if he cannot dribble and chew gum at the he same time. He is still a Demon.

Hey, we agree on this!!!!
What rarely shows in stats is getting a lose ball or tips. Also is when stats occur. A steal in the 4th quarter is more important than in the first half. OG reaches for a lose ball he getting it. Those long arms and strong will tear it away.
Perhaps the contrast of his stoic chill is why KAT looks the fool at times. OG gets mauled and if he upset you can't tell.
The hops? He looks lumbering but he gets there for a block or will dunk in traffic. The put back dunks? shocking at times but thats the demon.

All this and he is guarding the best players often on the opposing team. Yesterday he was on Lebron and Doncic a lot and put up good numbers, and was clutch. This kid should be getting more accolades via DPOY considerations or All Star nod.

Got to keep that hammy healthy and not over use him.
We need to either get Yabu in the rotaton producing or construct a trade for a back up. I don't have anyone in mind that can solve that concept.

They prefer to sell Colby White for a first round pick. He also on an expiring.
Yet, Here we have Kolek and under a good our control cheap for two more years after this.
Guys like him, Shamet, and Duece are why was in the conversation. Yabu and Clarkson are depsnseable currently. Dadiet? His upside is still a mystery. Obviously not going to be missed now but is he viewed as a prospect and still so young?

he's 26 averaging 15/4/3 on 52/45/85 shooting. I imagine CHI would want alot for him.

It actually gives them a bit more depth at C
