How has the team’s dynamic changed after trading Dejounte Murray for Dyson Daniels in addition to the young core pieces already here? De'Andre Hunter: I think you see a lot of growth, especially with guys like Jalen Johnson and Dyson Daniels, who came from New Orleans, where he didn’t play too much. You can see what kind of defensive player he is. JJ (Johnson) has grown into being a star himself. If we continue to progress and get better, the sky will be the limit for us. I think we can compete with anyone right now this year. Hopefully, we can keep the guys together and continue to get better. -via HoopsHype / January 23, 2025
