San Antonio Spurs head coach when asked how he imagines it is for the Brooklyn Nets having to develop five rookies at once Its hard to ask a 19-year-old to help another 19-year-old Its like asking a bunch of kids learning how to swim to make sure the other one doesnt drown

Adam Silver The Spurs are classy they do everything the right way Im amazed at Victor Not just his play on the floor but hes such a curious young man Hes a pleasure to talk to Hes ever worldly Hes really dedicated to his craft Hes got such a bright future ahead of him

Tyrese Haliburton I don't think it's as much head coach teaching as much as it is like player development even before you get to the NBA it's just something you like kind of work on by natureeven in pickup they're working on how they can draw fouls I think that's a part of the game

Skip Bayless On AJ Dybantsa I dont see megastar and I dont see wizards being a playoff team I think hes gonna be a very nice NBA player but I worry if you throw a kid into what could turn into a sorry situation does it start to erode his enthusiasm
