KJ has slowly and quietly turned his season around. His leap from bad shooter to sharpshooter is really nuts.
besides the pt average, KJ numbers are quite close to Khris Middleton and even BI . That is a big Plus! KJ is looking more and more like that 2nd option behind Dj. There is still work on the offensive end and defensive end, but I can see KJ Being a 18-20 ppg sharpshooter with good Efficiency! with at least average defense

Slowly? He’s been railing since December. If you haven’t noticed, you weren’t paying attention.
He had maybe one rough shooting month at the start of the season, but the change wasn’t slow or gradual. It was like a switch got flipped, instant and immediate.
He’s gonna get a BIGGG extension this off-season tbh
I think 4yrs 80mm is fair.
I feel like KJ’s already on the same development track as DJ and nephew in that he’s adding small bits and pieces to his game until eventually it’ll all come together. It’s definitely been nice to see.
^ agree with this.
His growth, DJ’s well deserved all-star nod, Pops record, some smart FO moves at trade deadline, and potential for exciting draft/offseason has made this a good season, in context, of course.
If they make play in and win a game, would be a nice story too.
if not for KJ, the spurs would be nowhere near getting into the play-in at this point.
KJ is balling, he deserves the credit.
He does seem to be becoming a more complete player. At first it was only driving. Then it was only shooting. He's mixing it up and seems to be making better reads and passes now as well from what I've noticed.
Keldon's shooting the past 2 months has been below .400 and that is a bit worrying. Of course he's taking a higher volume of shots, so thats part of it as well. I don't consider him a sharp shooter, but he's done more than enough to be considered a threat from 3 point land and that is what we wanted to see. If he can be a career .400 shooter from 3 that is a bonus, but I'm a bit skeptical.
Keldon has surpassed Saddiq Bey as both a player and a prospect.
This is slowly looking like the Murray-trajectory when Murray slowly became better than his peers one player after another as time went on.
You love to see it.
Miles Bridges is the next guy he will surpass. Wait for it.
Why the sudden comparison with Saddiq Bey, also isn't Bey drafted one year later same as Vassell, if Vassell exceeds Bey I will be excited but not so for KJ?
Same age is my reason
His steady improvement is impressive, and above all the defensive side. He's not there yet but he's making progress, a steady one , very much like Dejounte. I expect both of them to keep improving.
Truly cool to witness……
What the Spurs do late round wise is extraordinary.
Chinook: They’re really not that good….
he doenst have a choice now
Unless he gets moved for a conditional pick too.

Trade Keldon for 1 future pick in the low 20s, otherwise we need to pay his extension next year
Keldon plays hard and low maintenance …….. he’ll be fine!

Keldon is going to cost money in the future. He gone.
