Really hope nobody takes those Sengun numbers and draws the wrong conclusion. Like that wouldn't happen here, right?
What this tells me is KJ Martin got the most minutes and did not lead the team in any category. He had a 3-way tie in blocks. He came in 3rd in steals. He came in 4th in assists Did not come in the Top 5 in Points or Rebounds. . . . . And he thinks he's better than this team. Eason on the other hand: 5th in minutes (4 less than Martin) #1 in Rebounds #3 in Points Tied with KJ for steals. And he's a Rookie with a Positive Attitude not a 3rd year disgruntled role player. No to mention hes scoring with a .636 FG% to .500. We know Tate is going to get minutes so the backup minutes needs to go to Eason. Martin was given his opportunity to shine. Jabari, Tari, Jae'Sean and Sengun need the most minutes. KJ should get around 15 per game. Not saying he'd a bad player but I'm still bitter about the attitude and I don't think he wants to be here.
If your story of the preseason is "man kj Martin is bad" you may as well not have followed the preseason. All the games were free on nba app man.
KJ leading the team in minutes tells me that the Rox are trying to keep Kenyon Sr. content until they decide what to do with his kid.
