Reckless Abandon

The constraints worked. The team is flushing out his fouling tendencies without extinguishing his confidence.

The Philadelphia 76ers need defense at the guard position. T.J. McConnell has stepped up in that area this year.  Nik Stauskas has stepped up in that area this year as well. But neither has the wingspan nor audacity of Timothey Luwawu-Cabarrot.  And in the end, Brett Brown loves the audacity.
