You guys will be upset at who has the best odds to win ROY. Don't say Edey. I'm guessing it's a Wildcat. Edey followed by Sheppard |

Dalton is 5-24 from three so far this pre-season. Hitting the three is probably his best path to a regular rotation spot as a rookie, so it needs to improve. But I also think it will.

It would be a major disappointing surprise if DK doesn't hit well from beyond the arc. But I could see him struggling early on just because of better athletes and length defending him. He may have to be a bit more selective with it, or be ready to shot fake and put it on the floor to drive and shoot or find the open guy. |

His last game really tanked that number. I think he was 2-12 or something close to that. I doubt it will be a trend. He looked really good in all other aspects. Snagged 11 rebounds with 3 assists and played respectable D against NBA superstars. He definitely looked like he belonged. Lakers fans love him so far. |

5-13 from three against the Warriors last night. Almost all of it in garbage time with the Lakers down big, but it looked like a classic Dalton heater from the replay I saw.

1-5 from 3 ast night with no other stats. Ouch. If he’s struggling at mid season of the regular season, I’ll be more concerned. But even then I think his upside is good. He’ll adjust to a higher level of competition. It may take some time. |

He’ll adjust to a higher level of competition. It may take some time. Nobody should put a whole lot of stock on preseason performances. Teams are shuffling guys around, looking at combinations, and deciding who to keep, trade, etc. If DK isn't starting a week or so into the regular season, that might be time to be concerned. |

As I understand he is fighting for a rotation spot.

As I understand he is fighting for a rotation spot. On that team I would think he’s got a good shot. |

DK lit it up in an overtime win against the Suns on Thursday night. 35 points, 8 of 13 on 3 pointers, to go with 7 rebounds. The question is not whether he is in the rotation, it’s whether he will be a starter by the All-Star break…
