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.

Quote from: Its DJOver on May 23, 2025, 11:28:31 AMReally 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.

Yes, it's all semantics. There is no "title" of Stretch 4.

Right.  I wouldn't watch a highlight video of his makes to determine that...

Maybe one can be an ineffective or effective stretch 4.
I could call myself a marathon runner or power lifter, but be the worst that ever lived at it.

Hence the 'Climbing the charts'.   Maybe it suffers a knee injury and never reaches its full potential potential and we can lament what might have been.

Maybe he should concentrate more on a stretch of that neck.

Honestly the bigger concern with Royce is if he will ever be able to dunk with authority?
Those dunks this season left a bit to be desired.
