Strawther scored 14 and 15 points in his first two preseason games.
“Two explosive scoring games from Julian Strawther to open preseason — 14 points in the opener, 15 tonight with three made 3s. Making a real case to open the season in the rotation.”
Coach sees Strawther as a capable rebounder and is freeing him to crash the glass under Denver's new tag-up approach.
“He's a really aggressive two-foot jumper. He's actually really good verticality guy too... with these rules, it'll help him. It allows him to go explore that as opposed to just screaming, get back, get back, get back.”
