There are several NBA Brotherhood stories so we thought we’d put them together here, starting with this Kyle Filipowski story predicting a big breakout this season. Seems about right.
Here’s another link about Sion James and the role he might carve out with the Charlotte Hornets, which would basically parallel what he’s done so far: concentrate on being a great defender and build from there.
Here’s another about Khaman Maluach and how happy the Phoenix Suns are to have a rim protector on the team since
they were near the bottom in the league in that area last season.
Meanwhile, former NBA star Matt Barnes is high on Cooper Flagg, saying this:
I absolutely love Cooper Flagg. I coach my kids in AAU, so I got to see him for one season, and what stood out to me the most was his effort and energy. I came from an era where effort was necessary, and he has one of the best efforts I’ve seen on both sides of the ball.
“What excites me most is his defensive prowess. He can be someone in today’s NBA who can guard any position. On offense, he is freakishly athletic and continues to improve his jumper. I am really excited for his future.”
