    Don’t think his career can be over he has a good shooting form and he just need minutes to develop a role

    Toronto has been betting on big guys for the past few years only short guy they have is Flynn and Freddie and i guess gary trent. Orlando is going the same route though.

    Barnes was drafted 4th and already off the board when the Magic picked Suggs. Also Suggs still has a chance he's a lock on D and if he can be more efficient on offense he could be a quality starting PG.

    He should really focused on conditioning & bulking a little bit, staying away from injuries, he would be phenomenal for years to come👌👍🏻💪💪

    To be honest, who in their right mind can see how to use him right? I would think he is a slim big, not a tall guard he is right now, I wouldn't trust a slenderman body type to dribble and fast break, but Bol Bol is so good at all that, in a way he is similar to Boris Diaw, who came in NBA as a point guard, but made his mark as a power forward and occasional centre.

    Congrats on becoming a dad, but no lie when you said “on the live” I swear the first time I heard it I thought you said un-alived. My initial shock was priceless
