@RattoIndy Bukayo Saka is coming back, you can’t hurt me Ray
He wouldn’t have done this with Arsenal.
How do you evaluate Jonathan Kuminga’s performance tonight in New Orleans? 16 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, and 1 steal in 23 minutes. I liked how often he got to the rim and his effort on the glass. Thoughts?
