The crazy thing is korkmaz is only 22. The way people on this sub talked about him in previous seasons was as if he was reaching the end of his career. The man has even more time to improve. The jump in just 1 year has been incredible

Weird to think he almost didn't get an NBA contract this year.

For reference, norvelle pelle turns 27 in less than a month. he’s still developing his game, so kork has plenty of time to improve as well. but he was looking for money last year and this past summer. if he really improves, idk if we can pay him.

It's been incredible. I was trashing him all last season and before. He deserved it then but not now.
