Jordan Walsh Highlights vs Oklahoma City Blue (23 pts, 10 reb, 3 blk) | 2023-24 NBA G-League

[@makgeoff]

This kid has the right mindset & looks good on one on one lock down and trailer defense. If he gets his shot going & improves his vision and passing he'll get regular mins in the NBA.

[@falc0n12]

probably my favorite prospect this season! excited to see where he goes

[@d3peeto]

I like defensive minded draft picks because there is a chance they can learn offence and learn when to take shots. It’s often harder to learn defence because it’s mostly rooted in effort and tenacity things that are harder to pick up.

[@mikaylarivera1337]

this man keeps getting better and better. keep grinding brother

[@-justin-4077]

Walsh’s potential is looking like a longer Dwhite type player. Good defense, passing, slashing, shooting, make the right play type guy, borderline all star/demi-god/spirit animal.

[@Intelligenz1]

I heavily doubt he will ever be a all star

[@josephringling769]

I can envision him as a young Dennis Rodman in those old Detroit Bad Boys days. Hes a banger and not afraid to do the dirty work. Hustle/energy guys are hard to come by. Those long ass Daddy Long legs arms give him an advantage. His wing span is insane. I'm looking forward to him carving out a quality nitche for himself on the team.

[@deeptime5581]

not a Rodman....he has an offensive game, 3 pointers, drives, etcRodman did not

[@josephringling769]

@@deeptime5581 well yea I didn't mean Rodman offensively and yes Walsh can score. I'm saying, that's the role I can envision him having on the C's. They don't need him to score. They have plenty of scorers. But we could always use energy guys and guys not afraid to dive all over the floor with disregard for their own bodies. And another lockdown defender who can defend bigs and switch onto guards. That's his value and those things need to be his calling card if he wants to see minutes or significant minutes the next few years.

[@itsmeitstrue]

@@josephringling769yeah i can see that comp. A young rodman defensively. Theres some similarities there

[@Mitch_Feral]

Woo, great stuff.

[@pyurologie]

his game and even movement style remind me of iggy so much

[@nbapbaupdate8338]

Jordan Walsh potential amazing two-way players in the FUTURE

[@SpacestationWilly]

The water bug

[@LookForDJ]

I wish he could get some minutes on the main roster

[@TheA6surdNerdz]

He's not even close to strong enough for NBA basketball. Let him grow first.

[@user-wl9ig7yb6r]

As much as I like him, he's not ready yet. He needs this full year to develop and next offseason.

[@uhh_brandon]

not his time yet, all this development in the g league is perfect for him to be ready for next szn

[@Mitch_Feral]

Nah, he's exactly where he needs to be - getting quality minutes, getting stronger, being a part of wins. Much better than grabbing 5 or 6 minutes every other game, trying to learn the big league sets on the fly.

[@ryanb9305]

I think this year G league is good for him he won’t be getting many minutes this year on the Celtics barring injuries. He is getting good minutes here just needs to focus on getting stronger and bulk up.

[@FezzesRCool11]

Definitely needs to put on some strength, he's getting hurled around out there even on his made buckets at the rim. If he can gain some mass and iron out that three point shot to at least league average, he's ready for some legitimate NBA rotation minutes. The main problem is that he's got so many wings ahead of him in the lineup, all of whom are more NBA-ready than him. I can't fault Brad in going for this guy. He looks like he could be really special, and you have to seize that when you can. But he's got Tatum, Brown, Hauser, Mykhailuk, Brissett, and even Stevens who are ahead of him in that position. I guess the idea is that Walsh isn't going to be ready this year, while Mykhailuk and Stevens are on one-year deals, so they won't overly matter in that regard. Still, two of our best three players (I don't want to hear it, JB is top 3 on our team at worst) are wings. Did we really need to draft another? Whatever the deal is, I'm sure Brad knows a lot more about this shit than I do. He's got a plan, and if his track record is anything to go by it's a plan that'll work out just fine.

[@M3333C]

How about now?

[@FezzesRCool11]

@@M3333C Now he's the GOAT bald basketball player and the frontrunner for MVP this season

[@louie.s_97]

Brad does not miss

[@Potat0-_-d0nut]

If he can develop a good reliable 3 he would be exactly what the Celtics need jrue, brown, Walsh, Tatum, porzingus. That is a long team. And d white off the bench with hauser and pp and queta. Solid team

[@behrgriss]

i like Jordan Walsh’s game. He’s my 6 man on 2k

[@jessboysen1976]

Walsh should be getting all of Stevens, Bantons, and Svi’s minutes - that’s a no brainer. Get your head in the game Mazzulla.

[@danteschaos7852]

He has the tenacity so much that if he were an inch or two taller, he’d be rosterd

[@GurtonBuster07]

I mean he’s 6’7 lol I get what u mean tho we need bigs

[@Gumiho-34]

And still 19.. hopefully he grows 1-2 more inches

[@unranked5690]

Man want this kid for the warriors. Just no room on the Celtics roster

[@anthonyyusef5897]

I thought it was a good pick at the time. Brad knows talent and knows basketball. The Celtics are in good hands

[@JOnathanLopez-g2v]

Just pulled an auto from him on a4$ nba hoop pack

[@deeptime5581]

unfortunately will probably be part of a trade package

[@ch4_r1ie74]

Walsh should be a benchwarmer for the Celtics honestly he is pretty good maybe even better than Jaylen brown

[@jimmynorton600]

I don’t really understand why he signed him to a 4-yr rookie deal when we could’ve just used a two-way on him and given him that same deal at the start of next season.

[@bucknersrevenge]

For a player they like as much as him, they're basically treating him like a late first rounder. Gives the team control of a player they clearly expect to have value by the end of his contract for a longer period of time, plus Bird Rights. Salary cap logistics.

[@GurtonBuster07]

Why do u care lol

[@nolanL]

He wouldn't be a restricted free agent after the contract if he got converted from two way to a standard deal

[@soldiermedic81]

better than jaylen

[@staticcharm3808]

In nothing

[@deeptime5581]

stop!

[@melancholypuppy3595]

Stop it lol
