Jahmai Mashack is talking. You can see how his preparation allows him to speak with confidence. He believes he’s one of the best defenders out there. He also had really good things to say about how Cam Boozer is the type of player who you root for because he can handle success.
Zach Edey saying that he feels more athletic than ever before certainly was notable.
@TheJonahDylan with more on what Edey said about his injury recovery and progress.

Story: commercialappeal.com/story/s…
Zach Edey is here. He said he’s spent more time on his body and being more athletic than he ever has. He said there are good days and bad days with rehab. On the good days, he said he feels more athletic than last season.
Tuomas Iisalo just noted how Ty Jerome in his 15-game sample size was on an efficiency pace that only one player has ever accomplished over a full-season load (Luka Doncic in 2023-24). He had strong praise for the team’s potential starting point guard.
Tuomas Iisalo said Cam Boozer’s passing is already at a high level.
“I think that will be something that we definitely utilize.”
Team expects to use him in a variety of different looks but also expecting growing pains.
Tuomas Iisalo said he’s excited to get a look at this group. Mentioned how the team is in a better health position now than at this time last year when Zach Edey and Jaren Jackson Jr. were nursing injuries. He expects the team to have a better identity this season.
