Pope watching Pate today

Well I guess we know who are potential Point Guard will be
Ugh not really sold on this but also don’t know what will or won’t hit the portal
This guy doesn't seem like a guy who can lead a team to winning anything that matters.
Guess Pope wanted a point guard that reminded him of himself
Someone posted the Youtube link to the game today so I watched for a few minutes. Guys jogged up and down the court like it was a pickup game at the YMCA.
Pope was the captain on a team that won the national championship before he played in the NBA for several years.
All the negative people are on today in a jerk circle I see. Transfer portal hasn't started yet. Louisville and arkansas still needs more fans
There’s a reason a Player is stuck in the G League
I see him more in OO spot than I do at PG but I could be wrong everything I’ve seen him play in he’s off the ball
Not sure why he’d want to come here without Hart. Still think if he comes to college it’ll be at SMU.
Agree. I haven't been high on him, but his 3-point percentage took a big jump this year (despite an ugly looking stroke). If he can sniff mid-30s percent on 3s, be a secondary ball-handler and good defender, I'm all for it. I just don't think he's a star, nor do I want him to be the primary PG. As a 3rd option like Aberdeen was intended to be before Lowe's injury - I'm cool with it. I think his game resembles Aberdeen, actually.
It's a handful of dorks with all kinds of accounts. Put them all on ignore. I do and I spend quite a bit less time here as you could only go braindead reading all of the stupid stuff.
Agree, he is a college SG. However, Dink could rotate in at SF and also run some point. I like the versatility based on our injury history in the backcourt.
G league may be meh, but it’s better than HS competition most prospects are judged against.
Would not complain if he posted a 23/7/7 game in Rupp.
Circle jerk my friend.
Listen I’ll take anybody hungry enough to come here, work hard, accept coaching and give it their all. This dude sounds hungry. Let’s feed him.
Yeah because the NBA has the absolute best players on the planet. What's your point?
Is he a dawg?
Can he defend?
Can he shoot?
Does he have size and athleticism?
If the answer is yes to all of those, sign him up.

Like what, a NC?
That interview reminded me of a Muhammad Ali interview. Lol
Because they are in the top 2% of players instead of the top 1%?
Yeah great two guard but not a true college point in my opinion. Would love to have him with a true point as well.
Agree. Especially since Chandler might leave.
How does this crap work? If we can get a g league guy then bring Oscar back. Lol
Pate hasn't enrolled or played college. He also hasn't been signed to a NBA roster or played a game.
We don't even know who is hitting the portal officially it isn't open till after championship. We got rid of the players making the most money on the team or they graduated. I'm on wait and see mode.
I like Chandler but this would be 100% an upgrade. I’d love to see Chandler come back for sure to.
The young man isn't lacking in confidence, I'll give him that. I feel bit of Ali in his attitude. If he can back it up, he will be a bad man on the court.
Mark Pope watches Dink Pate drop 23 points in G League finale
Who says Kentucky's push for G League star Dink Pate is over following Jason Hart's departure?
What’s the deal? Was Pope waiting until the season was over or now wants him after Hart went to SMU? Will Pate be eligible?
