Semi Ojeleye played his 1st game for Milwaukee Wednesday and went 0-5 including 0-2 from three and 0-2 on his FTs and had 1 steal and 1 rebound in 12 minutes. Not the debut he's hoped for

Sterling Brown is averaging 1 point per game on 10% shooting and 3 rebounds per game. He's averaged 10 minutes per game and still trying to get back to fully healthy.

All of our guys are gimpy early in this NBA season with ankle & calf injuries

Saw Sterling play last night against the Heat. He got more playing time than I thought he would, and played well. Played some good D, and kept the ball moving around the horn.

His shooting opportunities will increase as he gets more comfortable with his teammates. Saw him kidding around with Boban Marjanović during warm ups.

I see both Semi and Sterling had 4 points and 5 rebounds last night. Semi played 19 minutes for the Bucks and Sterling got 12 minutes. I think both guys have a chance of hanging around the league for several more years. Shake's Sixers play tonight.

I will keep them coming.

Shake is working his way back from injury and with other guys now out, he played 33 minutes in the Sixers win last night. He scored 16 pts, had 8 rebounds and 5 assists on 7/13 shooting including 2/5 from three.

For the young season, Shake is now averaging almost 22 minutes, scoring 11 pts per game on 51% shooting and is averaging 3.4 rebounds and assists

Barring injury, Shake should have a long NBA career. Solid contributor indeed

Shake gets another start and scores 13 tonight on 4-10 shooting. In 35 minutes, he also had 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals, no turnovers and hit 5-5 FTs helping his Sixers win in Chicago.

Sterling gets just 7 minutes in the Mavs win vs Boston last night, scoring 2 pts, pulling down 2 boards and getting one steal. With more minutes, I expect that same level of contributions from him. He was always a "blue collar" type player in his years at SMU. Both he and Ben Moore, who last I heard was trying to extend his professional career in Australia

Semi and Shake going at it tonight . Bucks up in 3rd quarter and Semi already has 11 points on 4/4 shooting including 3/3 from three. Shake has 15 points on 5/10 shooting. Looks like they are motivated playing against each other.
