Most could help the C's should have got Ayo or Coby in return for Simons. Ayo or White might be better 2 way ? Jaden ivy even cheaper , a great rim attacker I would bring him in for a look. https://youtu.be/KKhWFYbQHys
I wouldn't want them to go anywhere near Ivy. Personally, I prefer Sexton over Ayo or White, but I wouldn't be upset if either of them walked through the door this summer.
You left me intrigued about your comment regarding White (Derrick, not Coby). Do you think he was better other years because he was more off ball than this year?
Yeah, I think White's struggles were in part due to a larger on-ball role this season, and then being moved back into a different/previous role right before the postseason.
In the 24-25 season, White averaged 6.1 attempts off the catch, shooting 40.9%, all of them coming from deep. This season, those attempts dropped to 4.3 per game, with 23.7% shooting.
In the 24-25 season, White averaged 4.8 drives per game. This season jumped to 7.5
In the 24-25 season, White averaged 4.1 off-the-dribble jumpers. This season, the number jumped to 7 per game.
Point being, I think his role shifted, his shots were coming in ways that weren't fully conducive to his skillset, and in turn, he struggled. Then, as he was figuring it out, his role shifted again, and he was trying to adjust on the fly during the postseason.

Thanks for the data points!
