His shot and form is just so smooth and effortless. Very Steph/Trae Young-esque (without the gross looking part).
Just watching his videos and I was thinking his release looked a lot like Trae's. I think he is going to be the surprise of the class. Like a like of people have said, I know it is only Cap City, but it is easy to see the kid can shoot the hell out of it.

I feel like Solomon is an unknown. He's been solid but not like a top 10 post or anything

For anyone that thinks these games don't matter to these guys, you all should have been there last night. There were a lot of heated moments, especially out of Jacobson and Lewis. Bolton was also very upset to lose. George had a scary moment where he landed hard but it didn't slow him down after walking it off.

I loved seeing that competitive fire.

It is fun to see all of the players joking around and getting along. But last night they were all kind of crabby ;). I didn’t see what got Lewis and Mike worked up but they were sure going at it.

I'm not positive but I think it started between Mike and Reed Mells who played on T-Lew's team during a timeout. Then Lewis got involved after the timeout ended.

They play harder than people think they do just from watching highlights. Rasir Bolton got a technical, Mike had a bad foul called on him late and took himself out of the game and walked by the ref and said, “that’s f****** bullsh** dude.”

I think I could score 63 points off that olé interior defense and that sagging perimeter defense. Of course, I'd need 163 shots to do it and no game clock, but I could do it ... eventually.
If you could 63, I’m surprised all the other players don’t. Obviously 63 is inflated because it’s the summer league but it’s still impressive.

Jacobson may not look like it but he is a bulldog on the basketball court. Probably my favorite player this year.

Last year's game against Iowa was where I REALLY became a big fan of his! His reaction (i.e. "not backing down") to the classless play of Pencilhead and The Entitled One was priceless!

It’s impressive no matter what. But he did it on so few shots.

Lewis has to be the all-time CCL player.

I hope he puts it together when it matters.

The little blonde ref was annoying last night I didn’t recognize him from other days, but he’s probably been there every week ;)
