Mudiay killed it (need to work on his FTs and decision making - LB will take care of that).
Turner just has never really impressed me - a lot of wobbling around - looks like a broken leg/knee/hip problems waiting to happen.
Was it just me or did it look like an Achilles injury?

Same here. Turner runs like he is in pain.

Apparently a mild ankle sprain and expects to play in the Jordan Brand Classic on 4/18. (would be good to see him play just once with Mudiay - he's been on opposite teams in all these all star tourneys).

Mudiay led all scorers with 20. 3 steals, 3 assists, 2 rebounds.

It was a great game for the EMan.

I watched this game and came away so impressed with Eman, save for one thing...he needs to work on his outside jumper. A lot. Those 3's were ugly.
But he is a terrific defender, slasher, scorer and set-up man when driving to the rim. Cannot wait for next year!!

EMan would have had a lot more assists if the other players could have handled his passes or made their open shots.

Agreed. And he would have had about 30 points had he hit his FTs and the 2 layups he missed (one was really tough, the other one was almost a "gimmee".)
Every time I've seen him played he's been the best player on the floor (and I've only seen him play at this "best of the best" type tournaments - except against Whitney Young which was on ESPN).
Give him a year with LB to improve his bball IQ and refine all the little things plus a tremendous work ethic / competitiveness, and this cat will be an elite player on the next level. He'll also need to put on a little more muscle (for durability), which he said he wants to do. This time next year, we could be looking at a top 3 pick (I would actually bet on it, if all of the above happened).

Expecting those improvements, though those missed layups made me cringe as they reminded me of Ryan Manuel.
