The summer league isn’t usually any more predictive than any other five game stretch, and to Sarr’s credit he’s averaging 2.5 blocks and 7.7 rebounds. He’s also averaging a solid 3.2 assists for a big man.

However, with all of those disclaimers, what Sarr is doing in the summer league is historic. Even looking at the worst star summer league performances, from Trae Young to Jaylen Brown, they were all scoring twice as much and usually twice as efficiently.

Sarr was always seen as a prospect that would need some development offensively, but it’s possible that he won’t be able to play the role that he envisioned long-term

I used this source which also gave a couple of limited advanced stats.

    I think it’s wild that literally everybody who did any kind of pre-draft work on him came away with some variation of “intrigue size and movement skill; sucks at playing basketball” and he went #2 anyway.

    All the copium and excuses for Sarr just proves what was already apparent

    Nobody hates Bronny James, it’s still the same old Lebron hate fueling these haters. Because for Bronny there never will be excuses, or copium or any fairness in judgement. It’ll always be he’s Lebrons son and Lebron is hated by so many

    He was definitely messing around especially on offense. He was pretty much as advertised on defense but yeah. He thought he was KD on offense.

    He had two very cold shooting games, and his shot profile needs to change for now. Everyone knew he was a project, but he had some really nice flashes defensively, has a good handle for his size/age, and is clearly much more fluid than your average big.

      In (un)fairness he also shot 8-26 during his “good” shooting games. Agree with you though

    Trae’s summer league looks like an MVP campaign compared to Sarr.

    It’s been rough but id imagine he’ll get better looks with the actual team. Having more talent will be beneficial for a an offensive project like him.

    I’m starting to think this guy might be a little bit of a project
