I'd rather have this guy in the corner, than KD filling that spot. KD better out front, imho.

You mean the one that says "Per 36 Minutes" across the top?

The Suns should now go and re-sign Yuta Tabuse and get Joe Pesce as arena announcer for opening night to introduce them as "the two Yutas."

Guess I didn't see that. So we got a guy who averages 5.5ppg?
Per 36 is a better indicator of output than PPG IMO because of fluctuations in minutes. Not perfect by any means but when you look at it with other stuff it can be a baseline indicator.

Good signing. What is there not to like?

In 16 minutes a game.
You know how everyone complained about Okogie and CP3 missing open corner 3's -- this guy should fix that, that's pretty useful.

They need to rekindled the sponsorship with Whataburger. If we score 100 points a free Watanaburger.

The more I watch video of this guy the more I like him. He has a legit chance of being the 5th starter along with Bates-Diop.
For some reason Nets stopped giving him much time after the Durant trade, probably cause Cam was taking most of it.

They also got Finney Smith in the Irving trade and he was ahead of Yuta as well.

Supposedly Wattanabe is a decent defender, too.

Yeah, we are going to run. Phoenix and Fast Break just got together!

Yeah, that is a theme with all the guys we got, and the big 3 can too.

Having someone your stars like to play with will go much farther than 20 pts per game with this team.
We have the scoring under control. We just added TONS of D tonight and some 3pts.
As Cotton would say hard nosed "dirt workers".

That's the deal. He is a poor man's cam Johnson.

Cam wasn’t particularly good at knocking down threes when injured. What is Yuta’s injury history?

I didn't want to say that and start a firestorm of comments. I was thinking that, too. And the comments from basketball analysts are that he plays decent defense, too! I will wait to appraise him in our system, but it looks like we saved over $100 mil if he plays anywhere near a Cam Johnson.

All these guys are going to have confidence in each other, except maybe Ayton.
probably due to Cam Johnson, i mean its simple math

They added three wings in Mikal, Cam and DFS. Yuta just kind of feel out of the rotation at that point.
