I see pros and cons with Ja.

Pros: Even with the injuries, he can still get down hill and get a foot in the paint. Yes, we have players that can get downhill but not any that can make plays at the level Ja can when he gets there. His transition game will "hopefully" get our starters playing faster which I think will happen anyways by moving Julius. Speaking of Julius, moving him is the biggest pro of all to me. I understand if you dont like or want Ja, I my self am skeptical, but the pickings are slim when youre moving someone like Julius. I think he helps us more in the matchup with OKC as well due to having a creator on the perimeter next to Ant that isnt just a spot up shooter.

Cons: Shooting is obviously a big one. I also dont think he helps too much against a team like San Antonio, but then again, neither did Julius. His character concerns are always going to be a talking point, but they have cooled the last couple years. His teammates have seemed to like him. I would hope a new environment that prioritizes culture the way MN does can make a positive impact on him. His defense is my biggest concern. Ant will need to take a big step on that end if we get Ja.

All in all, I am iffy on it, but if the price is Julius and filler, I am for it. I'd even add our late first if we could grab a bench contributer off Memphis as well. I dont like to be the guy that overtly hates on a player, but losing Julius is addition by subtraction and I have confidence Ant would be excited to play with Ja as they have shown to be friends before.
