The local in Julian Strawer, the Zags in the WCC Tournament, Mark Few. They all live for competing in the wildest city in America. Magic happens when Gonzga travels to their home away from home.

Strawther was #4 in Summer PPG through 5 games amongst rookies at 18.2 PPG and his other fellow NBA Draft pick by the Denver Nuggets (Hunter Tyson from Clemson) finished #2 at 20.8 PPG. A lot of offensive firepower between those two in their respective styles.

The Denver front office and defending NBA champions know exactly what they wanted. Getting both a solid catch-and-shoot piece like Strawther and a bruiser in Hunter Tyson off the bench to support Nikola Jokic and continue their winning ways.
