    I hate it for Collin sexton. He was becoming a beast in Cleveland before he got hurt in 2021-2022. He can be elite offensively in the right situation
  • @SuperNASCARrocks
    The story of Collin Sexton is quite sad when you think about it. He was putting up 24 PPG, looking elite, and playing really good ball for the Cavs. Then he gets injured and everything does a complete 180. Now he’s demoted to being the third option on the Jazz.
  • @johngittings4673
    Even if Sexton stayed healthy, I’m not sure he would have been the type of player to build a contender around. He reminded me a lot of Monta Ellis in his prime, and we saw how little success teams had with him as their main option, despite how electric he was. Sexton is more suited for a sixth man type of role.

    Ain’t no way in hell Christian Wood is only 6’8..He looks closer to 7 feet
  • @soundcloudsash
    I don’t think collin’s career is over. I can see him becoming the next Jordan Clarkson and maybe having one massive year
  • @perly2
    How about Landry Fields on the Knicks? Had a pretty promising start to his career, and for a season or two at the beginning he was quite a prominent player who looked on his way to being a solid NBA starter. Instead, he completely DISAPPEARED, and it happened really fast.

    I feel like Collin sexton will make a huge comeback while he’s playing with Utah
  • @brucelau2023
    truly i really did hate it for Colin Sexton, he was really becoming a beast in Cleveland before that injury in 2021-2022, and then the Utah Jazz thing, really hoping he'll be okay again in Utah
  • @chanendlerbong
    Andy can you please make a video about Dante Exum, that guy is playing the best basketball of his career and yet i didn't saw anyone talking about him, especially considering the fact that he came back from Europe
  • When you hear those trumpets playing. You know it’s gonna be a fascinating video, especially with Collin Sexton on the thumbnail as he’s about to steal a game from the team that traded him
  • @jacobdoria2890
    You failed to mention the guy never passed the ball. He avg 24 but had the worst usage to assist ratio in the nba. Now hes fitting in a system where he distributes more.
  • @mr.longjohn0014
    Sexton was literally looking like an up and coming all star and so fast that injury ruined everything for him. It sucks so much seeing he improved every season and averaging over 24ppg in your 3rd season isn’t anything to brush over. Glad he’s still an above average NBA player still.
  • @PrecisionAcc
    He's been tearing it up lately for the Jazz these past few games though
  • @VenomousStare
    Your videos havnt been showing up in my sub box. Been a fan for over 5 years. Big ups to you!
  • @jiby911
    Just comparing Christian wood and Ben Wallace, 2 undrafted big men. One is great on offense with no defense, and the other amazing on defense with minimal offensive skills. But I'm sure even in todays nba, ben Wallace would still be more impactful than wood
  • @RudieObias
    As a lifelong Cavs fan, I saw a lot of potential with Colin Sexton, but it was never realized because it was so inconsistent. I wasn’t shocked when he was traded. Even if it’s not long-term, Donovan Mitchell is a big upgrade. At this point, Sexton would be lucky to be an elite sixth man. Garland was a better fit for the Cavs going forward
  • @Jaykerz
    As a suns fan I thought a lineup with book and warren with the right pieces could be crazy... I was so delusional
