      Bebe was also coming off an injury before last years summer league. I'm sure he's gonna be better this summer league and like you said he wasn't even bad during last year's summer league.

        I don't think we can say he killed it, he put up 8 points and 10 boards over 4 games shooting a pretty low 43% from the filed. Her did show flashes, but it was a small sample and inconsistent at best.
        Here's his game log from the DLeague

        27 minutes, 7-18 FG, 4-11 FT, 18 pts, 19 reb, 4 blks, 1 ast, 1 TO
        29 minutes, 3-6 FG, 2-4 FT, 8 pts, 13 reb, 2 blks, 1 ast, 2 stl, 0 TO
        21 minutes, 2-4 FG, 3-3 FT, 7 pts, 7 reb, 2 blks, 1 stl, 1 TO
        Only got 2 minutes in his final game so basically should just discard it

        His FG% was brought down by the first game, where he was clearly asked to do way more on offense then the Raptors would ever ask (has JV ever had anywhere close to 18 shots in a game?). Outside of that, he shots 50% from the floor and was an ok FT shooter. What he did show was elite rebounding and shot blocking, which is exactly what the Raptors would ask of him. He also put up elite rebounding and shot blocking in the ACB, so I think it's fair to assume that will translate to the NBA well enough that he'd make a fine backup. He seems a way better fit than Hansbrough, who got the lions share of the backup C minutes.

          Gobert is a true super-freak in the Deandre Jordan mold. BeBe is an ordinary freak but could be productive as early as next year. A player can make major gains in 12 months, so we should be expecting Bebe to show some consistency in summer league.

            I will hold on saying anything about Bebe till this season. He had the excuse of being injured and coming off the injury last season. This season there are no excuses. He needs to dominate the summer league and show significant improvement.

              No one can really answer this question cause we still have barely seen him play

                For the record JV has shot 18 times or more once in his 3 year career. And 16 times or more only 3 times.

                      Can't say, since he never plays

                        Maybe when he gets some minutes we'll find out.

                        I just don't understand why he couldn't have at least had Hansbrough's minutes last year. We're not a title contender, there's no excuse not to play young guys. Hell the 4th seed was practically on lock anyway considering how bad the division was.
