Summary
Asa Newell’s first year showed promise but had shaky minutes—now, with a year of experience, he’s primed to make a statement in summer league. The team believes in his potential, having tested him at center last season to build versatility, even if it hurt his stats. His true fit is power forward, but that early adaptability could be key. This summer, he’ll likely play PF to showcase his growth—aggression, shot-blocking, and three-point shooting will be watched closely. He’s competing for a backup PF role against tough talent like Mo Gueye, Zuby Ejiofor, and possibly Jonathan Kuminga. Summer league matters more for second-year players—success here could give him a real edge for regular minutes. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
