Pickett not impressive so far. Hesitant to take threes. Kinda disappears on offense. Defense and rebounding okay. Overall needs to be more aggressive.

I would agree except that I don't know if it were by design. I think he only took one shot, a layout/follow-up. He turned down a couple. I would liked to see him be more assertive. Take good shots....dont pass up good shots!! He should play looser.

I am hoping that he gets a little more aggressive next game.I would like for him to show more energy and maybe get the hustle plays (defense and rebounding). The good thing is they gave him a lot of time on the floor.

I hope he continues to get time, and capitalizes on the opportunity!! Only seen one game, but he has to be more assertive on offense, selfish!

Agree it was a quiet start for Pickett, but it is going to be hard to improve if the team continues to resemble a pickup team with lots of selfish play and little structure. The kid, Littleson out of Toledo, was going to shoot every time he touched the ball. Really surprised that the coaching staff did not seem inclined to reign him in at least when I watched.

I believe Morko will eventually make the league but it is going to take some time. Morko could benefit from Mac's tenacity and energy and Mac could benefit from Yurt's hours of practicing his jump shots that is, if Norko had Mac's tenacity and Mac had Yurt's hours of practicing shooting jump shots. Morko needs to show more energy on the court, be more assertive and confident and be more decisive. My advice to Morko while he is in the Summer league games, until he can get his jump shot off with confidence which might take some time, is to focus more on the hustle part of the game. He should focus more on rebounding and defense. This will help him with his energy and give him less things to focus on. I don't know what players do for energy exercises but what ever that is, during the offseason he needs to do them. He also needs to focused on his shooting game. He could take a lesson from Yurt and shoot a thousand jump shots a day during the offseason. For the rest of the Summer league season, Morko needs to show some improvement in the energy department and get his confidence up. I think a few years in the development league or G league where he can develop his decision making and build up his confidence and Morko can get to the league.

Take good shots....dont pass up good shots!! He should play looser. Morko was really disappointing on the offensive end. He took two shoots while turning down multiple open wing threes. He repeated the same move over and over. He would receive a pass on the wing, throw a head fake and look to clear space for a 15ftr. It worked the 1st time (missed shot) but after the 1st time the defender stopped going for the head fake because Morko never proved he would even shoot the three. Hopefully the coaches are sitting him down and showing him that he has to be a threat from the arc if he wants to get to the midrange.

This is largely the Pickett we've known for the last 4 years. He shows bits of potential, but struggles to get it together, and sometimes disappears. Without a lot of improvement, he's not going to see an NBA roster. He seems like a good guy, and he was a loyal Hoya, so I really hope something works out for him.

I watched a little of Jamorko's summer league game last night, but I am not sure what his final stats ended up being. It looked a little too much like some of his Hoya career. He did not play poorly, but he seemed tentative and was willing to defer to his teammates most of the time, which in a summer league game, means you will spend a lot of time standing around watching. Hope he can increase his activity in the upcoming games. He is getting a decent amount of playing time now, but that won't last if he is not more active.

I need my favorite Hoya to turn up, get more assertive and get more aggressive. Pickett, c'mon my guy!! Get the rebounds, play tough d. Be all over the place playa!

And so I went on Verbal Commits...Georgetown site and there was an article on there speaking on the Hoyas in this year's Summer League. So they mentioned that Jarmorko had signed a Exhibit 10 contract. My question is how does this arrangement help the player besides him being on the contract for a year? Also, how does it hurt the player if at all? In other words, what are the benefits and what are the downsides of this contract? Anybody care to elaborate?

So they mentioned that Jarmorko had signed a Exhibit 10 contract. My question is how does this arrangement help the player besides him being on the contract for a year? Also, how does it hurt the player if at all? In other words, what are the benefits and what are the downsides of this contract? Anybody care to elaborate? Modified 30 Jul 2021 There are a variety of contracts in the NBA, ranging from guaranteed to ten-day contracts. Fans will be curious to know the workings behind an Exhibit 10 contract, and in this article, we will divulge all the information regarding this NBA contract. Explaining the workings of an Exhibit 10 contract in the NBA An Exhibit 10 contract is a one-year, minimum salary NBA contract. The deal has a particular Exhibit 10 attached to it and no bonuses come along with it. This attachment is included in the contract after both the sides (team and the player) have agreed to it. An Exhibit 10 contract gives a franchise the flexibility to convert it into a two-way deal, but the team has to ensure that it happens before the commencement of the regular season. Exhibit 10 deals are usually non-guaranteed, which means the team can waive the player and get the cap hit off their payroll. If a player is on an Exhibit 10 contract with a particular team, it would allow him to participate in that franchise's training camp. The team will control that player's G League rights, and he is eligible to get $50,000 if he manages to spend 60+ days with the G-League affiliate. Signing a basketball athlete to an Exhibit 10 contract works out well for NBA teams, who hold the option to cut them or include them in the roster if they play well. The Miami Heat did something like that last offseason when they signed Max Strus to a two-way contract after he impressed in training and then in the limited minutes he got. The New York Knicks also did something similar with Michael Kidd-Gilchrist some time back. An Exhibit 10 contract also works out well for a player trying to get into the NBA. This kind of deal gives him a chance to impress the franchise and become a part of the roster. NBA is a tough league to be a part of considering the roster size of teams and talent depth the game of basketball possesses, and an Exhibit 10 contract offers athletes a very lucrative option to prove their worth.
