Just listened to a Gary Dolphin podcast. He said he attended a basketball practice and Joey Matteoni stood out, Dolph said he was canning 3s. Maybe we have to include him in that wing mix. He's 6'9".

I'm surprised this thread hasn't generated more comment, I think the stats are pretty telling. First, I'm surprised there are only 5 former Hawks that shot 35% or above for their careers. What it tells me is that if this year's group can shoot 35% or higher we should be in good shape. Our top...

Hoiberg evidently got the Nebby NIL house in order. I sense they've put together a pretty good roster going into this year. I believe I read where one of their portal gets is a decent 7-footer. I guess we'll see when we play them.

saw this on X today: Jordan Schultz @Schultz_Report Sources: The #Dolphins are hosting free agent TE Noah Fant on a visit today. It’s Fant’s third visit, having already met with the #Bengals and Saints , as he continues to draw significant interest.

Nebraska is developing a good pipeline to Waukee NW.....

Anthony Watts was one of the pitchers that entered the portal, then withdrew from the portal, then got drafted in the 14th round by the Cardinals and today signed a pro contract with them. Congrats, Anthony, and bye bye Hawkeyes....... He has already reported to Palm Beach Gardens in Florida...

Here are some of the stats I foound: Bennett Stirtz - 39.5% 3 pt % last year at Drake Cooper Koch - 42.9% in very limited action Alvaro Folgueras - 41.3% last year at Robert Morris, 36.3% overall for his two years there Isaia Howard - 31.1% last year at Drake Kael Combs - 20.0% last year at...

OK, thoughts on which of the following team members might have a shot at shooting 35% or higher: Payton McCollum Tavioin Banks Kael Combs Cooper Koch Jokic (Jirak) Tate Sage Trey Thompson Isaia Howard Bennett Stirtz Alvaro Folgueras

I read in a hawkcentral article today that Hausen's career 3-point shooting % is 39.1% based on two years at Villanova and last year at K-State. That doesn't count for this stat but if he can match or exceed that in his one year in Iowa Cit, it will be a good thing!

Just got curious about this stat, somkething this team might haea shot at with BM loking tall wings shooting 3s. The all-time %% leaders for making 3s: 1. 39.7% JBo 2. 36.7% Jeff Horner 3. 36.4% Adam Haluska 4. 35.7% Payton Sandfort 5. 35.0% Chris Kingsbury We got anybody that can crack this...

This is all just speculation right now. The team is finishing summer workouts and will being fall camp in just a few weeks. That's when it gets real. The first week of August depth chart is the most important of the year. I see where Patterson is now up to 210 lbs, that sounds good for...

Thx for the update

In OKC's first summer league game, a win, Payton Sandfort did not get into the game, not a good sign. OKC has 19 on their roster and nine didn't play.

Stirtz will be he the anchor of this team, no doubt of that IMO. I like 6'4: PGs with NBA potentail! He played a ot of minutes at Drake and I'd expect that to continue. An interesting aspect of him being the anchor is who will the staff start grooming as the heir apparent at PG? Not much is...
