K.J. McDaniels remains a mystery
Three years ago, K.J. McDaniels was dazzling the NBA with his leaping ability on a go-nowhere team in Philadelphia.
In 2017, instead of a go-nowhere team, he's on a very good team, but he's stuck at the bottom of the bench, only able to make into games when the lead by either team is between 20-30 points in the final moments of the fourth quarter.
Saturday night, the Houston Rockets were destroying the Phoenix Suns.
To start the fourth quarter, the Rockets were up by 34 points, you could not craft a more perfect moment for McDaniels to stretch his legs and play the entire quarter, but nay... The deep bench didn't make it into the game until about four minutes were left.
