It's only the preseason but O-Max started alongside Luka and Kyrie for their opener last night. Not the most inspiring statline: 18 minutes, 1 point, 1 rebound, 1 turnover, 2 fouls, 0/3 FG, 0/2 3P, 1/2 FT.

Even so, he clearly made the right choice. Awesome selling point for Shaka

Still not sure if we’re cheering for him to have success or not?  It’s hard to tell on scoop which Marquette players we cheer for once they leave Marquette.

His skill set and body type are perfect for the NBA.   Completely predictable.

The Luka plus Kyrie offensive show, with 3 other defensive guys in Williams, OMax, and Lively is an interesting play.

Problem is, Luka and Kyrie will chuck up a gazillion shots if the others are offensively inept, and that plan won’t last very long

Anyone been following the rest of the preseason for OMax? Is he continuing to get a lot of minutes?

Some.   Not starting anymore.   Rookie growing pains.

Mavs vs Spurs on ESPN tonight.

Everybody in the country will be watching the rookie sensation!

A few will also watch Wembanyama a little.

No run in the 1st half. I think he'd be better off in the G league for a year or two.

He sat way in the corner in the second row behind the bench next to Cuban. Not going to lie, that was a big disappointment. Long season though…

Omax not even in the top 12 at the moment. I’m sure he will bet his chance, he has the mentality to put in the time and work for it.

Maybe the NBA can develop a 2-way system with the NCAA now that money is in play.

Like omax, bet on his elite athleticism/metrics and defense.
Realize he’s not an effective offensive threat, doesn’t read the game great and rebound or pass too great etc.

Send him back to Marquette after drafting to let Shaka try to help him while Marquette wins a natty.

How is this a bad plan?

Because if I were the Mavs, I would rather have him develop playing the pro-game on my G-League franchise.

If I'm Marquette, I would probably want my roster more in my control than based on the whims of an NBA team.
