Congrats to Royce

20 second later they help off Jop to double Royce...

Right.  He's not defended that way every single play.  But you cannot possibly watch a highlight video of all of his makes this season and tell me that he was stretching the defense here.  It just isn't happening.

So there are 6 college players and all the rest are HS players that Royce will be competing against. Does anyone think the college guys will get beat for a spot by HS players?

I think there are 7 college players. But, yes, I think some of the college guys will 'get beat for a spot' by HS guys. I think history shows us that... look back in time and see the proof (biannually).

Last time.. 2023.. I think there were 9 college guys invited to training camp... and 4 of 'em made the final roster.

Almost certainly they will.

Difference in age is not large and elite 5 star high school talent is certainly capable of beating out good college freshmen.

Cenac Jr is 18........so is Royce.

Really just reinforces my point that you actually have to be able to shoot to be a stretch 4.  Pistons thought they could develop Henry's shot, obviously couldn't. If Royce develops his shot he too can earn that title.

Really admire your dedication to dying on this hill.
