Funk can bomb and hustles. I just don't know if he is quick enough to play D in the NBA, but then again, most players don't play D anyway.

Yeah I think defense, quickness and physicality, will be a struggle. But I suppose if he increases his 3 % and is consistent, who knows?

More than likely this is the beginning of a nice career in Europe but who knows? Think about how much Moose grew as a player after college.

One difference between Funk and Muscala is that Mike was only 21 when he graduated from Bucknell, turning 22 during the summer. Funk, in contrast, is already 23 and will turn 24 prior to the NBA opener.
The two year age difference is a big deal in terms of likely player development.

Nuggets summer league roster includes seven guards. Wonder how much floor time Andrew will receive? Games being in the 7th.

Still not as daunting as what Walter will see…Detroit has 16 players on their summer league roster.

Andrew played 10 minutes in the Nuggets first game and went 0-4 from 3. Walter Ellis did not play in the Pistons first game.
