But for the little I did see him in the NBA, did not look like he could make an impact.

Hopefully he takes the opposite path from Kevin Knox who looked like he might have a future in his rookie season, and in the second year looked like he had regressed.

But hard to really be anything on Iggy.

On offense, he is easily a 15-18 pt scorer in the nba if he were given 38 minutes. But he has to show he can defend either 3s or 4s. I really hope they use next year to further develop the young guys. Play Knox more as a 4 and give Iggy 15-20 mins at the 3. I actually think we have a better team than we realize if the young guys can improve their games and we can add a better pg.

I agree. I hope the next coach is either Miller or Atkinson and that the directive given is to developers the young players.

Is Iggy a good passer? Thats Joe Ingles strong suit, he is point forward.
They are both white. That the comp?
Iggy has the offensive chops but is not NBA ready. He is a good prospect and young.
But I’m not “high” him. Not hating either.

In the g league he was actually very good at putting the ball on the floor and getting to the basket He’s an excwllent aggressive rebounder smart willing passer and while he didn’t shoot great from 3 has excellent form that will lead to better % going forward. He’s better than Knox right now— he’s smarter better tougher
Knox needed a full year in the g league like Ignas had. We pushed Knox the wrong way. But we’re talking iffy here abd I want him to be a rotation player next year—perhaps 8-9 in rotation

I agree with you BRIGGS. I think Iggy is better than Knox is now. Knox has more athleticism but Iggy has a more developed game. That is why I hope they give them both big minutes next year. We need to figure out if we have a SF of the future on this team or if we need to move on. While many will disagree, I think we should worry less about bringing in upgrades next year and focus on developing these young guys. They all have had 1-3 years under their belt. They should be ready to compete at a competent level.

Different players. Iggy is going to be a player in the nba- a good rotational player
