CD: Giles for Miles

Last night the Kings    lost to the Warriors in semi-heartbreaking fashion.

Marvin Bagley had a tremendous night, going for 20 and 17 in the best game of his young career. But one other thing of note:

The guy who really quietly impressed me tonight was Harry Giles.

10 pts, 4 assists, and 2 boards in 11 minutes.

Let the game come to him. A couple nice jump hooks. Wait till he adds a bit more muscle. Going to be scary teamed w/Bagley. Passes like a guard.

Those are some fairly impressive numbers for a guy who played 11 minutes. You always see “per 36” stats shown, so here’s an easy “per 33”:

30 points

12 assists

6 rebounds

Of course its a small sample size against a different rotation at times, but the fact remains- this kid could be special.

All the talk has mainly centered around Fox, Bagley, and Hield, imagine Giles getting into that fray and realizing his potential? Forget playoffs, that’s a title contender in the next couple of years.
