Really happy for Keegan. He’s gonna fit in the NBA just fine. For old timers, he reminds me a little of Keith Wilkes.
La
Lakers. His birth name was Jackson Keith Wilkes.
He has shown what he can do against the best players that the summer league has to offer. Yes, 'shut him down'. It makes good sense.

Yeah, I would guess that he sits tomorrow night. We'll see.
Yup. Time for him to rest.
Many of the guys he's playing with won't be on the final roster or see significant PT so it's hardly as if there would be an opportunity to develop a lot of team chemistry. That will come when camp opens before the start of the season.
Keegan's shown his value.
I watched it last night. Love Matt.
Pretty much so. Just how the NBA operates. Kings at this point can see why they drafted him and that he can dominate against G League level material (outside the other draft picks). There is benefit to continue to play and improve, but must be balanced against risk of injury. He definitely whetted the appetite of Kings' fans.
If Keegan wanted to keep playing and the coaches wanted to shut him down, would they consider letting him continue?
Keegan is a totally different player, his stats might be similar, but his game is much more NBA-centric.
