NBA: **Cyclones in the NBA and G-League, 2019-2020

Yeah, I just looked at his stats for the season. He only got 4 minutes last night and OKC was a bit short-handed. This season, Deonte is shooting 31.3 from the field, a blistering 15.6% from 3 and 57% in FTs. Is there some NBA team that's going to want to have him on the roster next year? That's hard for me to imagine.
Nader is still out with an ankle injury.
Nader is still out for tonight's game. Lots of ex-Clones in action tonight and tomorrow in the NBA.
Not just sittin' in the corner, chuckin' threes:
Georges is back in double digits tonight.

Haha, nobody wants to give a 45% three point shooter shots. Georges surely has some finishing and playmaking ability the Jazz can squeeze out of him.
It's a bit after how he started the season, but Matt Thomas is definitely out of the Raptors' rotation, with the team's health getting back to normal. They played a 10-man rotation and he basically got 3 minutes of mop-up duty (missed a 3 and grabbed a rebound).
Deonte Burton finally contributed to the short-handed Thunder with a solid game (a big win over Portland). His line was 17 MIN, 9 PTS, 4-6 FG, 0-2 3PT, 1-4 FT (c'mon, DB), 3 REB, 1 BLK, 1 TO and +11.
After some poor shooting lines while I was out of the country, Georges bounced back with solid stats in a big Jazz win over Sacramento. He ended with 10 PTS, 4-7 FG, 2-4 3PT and -7.
Ok, this time sitting in the corner chuckin' 3's:

And he did it in front of DOZENS of fans ...
Nice buzzer-beater by Shayok:

Thursday night, Burton blocked another alley-oop:
This is from a week ago but is pretty funny - some clips of Georges scoring and his teammates calling him "The Minivan". And Georges just chuckling and rolling with it. He's made himself into an terrific shooter.

I was wondering what was up with Naz - found this article:
Pacers' Naz Mitrou-Long: Still out with ankle injury
Mitrou-Long hasn't logged an appearance for the NBA team or the G League's Fort Wayne Mad Ants since Dec. 13 due to a sprained right ankle. Once he's finally cleared for game action, Mitrou-Long will most likely get his feet wet at the G League level, considering he hasn't been a regular member of the NBA rotation at any point this season.

With Murray out tonight vs. the Pacers, I'm guessing it will be a start for Monte tonight. At the very least there are more minutes available for Big Game.
Monte with 5 assists (no turnovers, natch) in the 1st half tonight as a starter for the Nuggets. 0-4 FG but he's making plays.
Check out this tough pick he sets to spring Jokic for a (rare) dunk:

Well, Monte got the start for the Nuggets vs. the Pacers and his numbers didn't really pop off the page. More importantly, the Nuggets folded in a game that they led almost from the beginning and ended up with an L. Monte shot 1-7, with 2 PTS, 5 AST and 1 TO. A couple tweets:
Note: Ames High's Dougie McBuckets had a big outing vs. the Nuggets:

I've watched Monte's spot starts these past few days. He does alright out there, but it is definitely a step up competing against NBA starters vs an NBA bench. Plus his game doesn't seem to complement Jokic's game, since the Joker is such a ball dominant facilitator. Jokic is phenomenal at finding hard cutters, which Monte is not.
