I know sometimes you post any article in a player's dedicated thread, that mentions the player. But this is a weak mention for which to start a Trey Lyles thread.

His thread should be started by something significant.

Here's something significant: Draft Grades. Lol.

These analysts don't like the pick. He's not a good fit for the Jazz with Favors already there, and they liked Devin Booker more than Lyles, who was available. And they like how Booker would have fit with the Jazz.

Can he play with Favors and Gobert?

Can he play with Favors and Gobert?

Definitely, he played the 3 at UK when KAT and WCS were on the floor. And in a couple of years, the question will be can they play with him. He's gonna be a star.

Lyles is improving, developing. Want him to get more rebounds, just like I want our PGs to get more assists, but he's getting better in stats and by others' accounts, intangibles, too. Still wish I could see more.

In games where Lyles played 12 minutes or more (44 games), he's: 124-277 (44.8%), 4.7 RPG, 7.2 PPG, 0.9 APG, 0.36 BPG, and 0.34 SPG in 21.4 minutes.

In games of 11 Minutes or Less (24 games): 14-38 (36.8%), 1.3 RPG, 1.5 PPG, 0.2 APG, 0.04 BPG, and 0.04 SPG in 6.5 minutes.

Overall: 43.8%, 3.5 RPG, 5.0 PPG, 0.6 APG, 0.2 BPG, and 0.3 SPG in 16.1 minutes.

For comparison:

In 29 games of Hayward's rookie year, he played 11 minutes or less for the following totals: 7-34 (20.6%), 23 Rebounds (0.8 RPG), 4 Assists (0.1 APG), 1 Steal (0.03 SPG), 4 Blks (0.1 BPG), and 23 points( 0.8 PPG) in 5.4 minutes per game.

In 38 games where he played 12 minutes or more: 27.9 MPG, 135-259 (52.1%), 3.1 RPG, 2.0 APG, 0.8 SPG, 0.4 BPG, and 9.6 PPG in 27.9 minutes per game.

Overall: 48.5%, 5.4 PPG, 1.9 RPG, 1.1 APG, 0.4 SPG, and 0.3 BPG in 16.9 minutes per game.

Takeaways: 52.1% vs. 20.6%, 9.6 PPG vs 0.8 PPG.

You have to give Trey credit, he was god aweful to start the year. He took his licks. Now, I am shocked if he misses a jumper. I liked how he did not back down against Fry after pile driving his ball sack.
