Honestly curious to see how Ja turns out. Hes the one that will make or break that team

small sample size but they were 6-3 when Ja played last year, something tells me they'll be okay especially with Edey now

I think they'll be right back in the thick of things and will likely bump one of last years playoff teams out. Ja Morant is electric whenever he's on the court, he just needs to stay on the court. I think Edey will do exactly what they need him to do. Be big, get rebounds, and finish. Bane will be back and hope for an improved GG. It's been just one injury plagued season since they were the second seed in the west.

Would you put Ja in the same category as SGA?
