I was off the board for most of Thursday through Sunday and just getting caught up on things.
Lot's of stuff we have heard had me wondering about the strength of the relationship between Jontay and Cunozo...but this story put those concerns to rest for me
This Dave Matter article here has some great quotes from both Jontay and Cuonzo....sounds like they have a great relationship and that Jontay has wisdom and maturity beyond his years.
JONTAY ON HIS REASONS FOR COMING BACK: “When I do make the NBA I want to be a factor right away,” he said. “Not that I’m going to be an All-Star or anything like that. And the G-League isn’t necessarily a bad thing or anything like that, but I realize I do have development to do before I’m ready to make the impact I envision on an NBA team. Coming back getting better, stronger, more mentally tough, getting ready to take that step and be a man in the NBA, I think coming back one more year is necessary.”
This story has some great quotes from both guys showing that there is a great deal of mutual respect and admiration between Cuonzo and Jontay...definitely worth a look imo.
