I wanna preface this post by saying “YES I DO THINK WE NEED MORE DEPTH IN THE FRONTCOURT”. However…Its baffling to me how a big portion of the fan base was on board with giving a bag and starting spot to Quaintance, but kind of dismiss James Scott as just a project. Quaintance is 16 and never played a second of college basketball. At least James Scott has some experience at the college level, and physically and athletically you could argue similar tools. But people are down on Scott being able to make a leap in year 2 it seems. I would trust Scott with a year under Kelsey under his belt and another summer in a college weight room. Once again…Yes we need more depth in the front court. But I really like Scott’s potential, and I think fans could be sleeping on this kid.
