Why not? THJ is younger than Curry and same age as Wright. I agree Brunson needs way more minutes (along with JJax) but THJ has earned his minutes so far this season.
He's shooting 37% from the field this season and he's a bad defender. He's an offensive specialist with a PER of 10. (although I'll grant he had a couple of huge defensive plays tonight) He's one of the most garbage players in the league.
His last few games have been solid and positive from a +/- standpoint. So yes he has earned his minutes; trust me, I want him gone as much as anybody else but he's outplayed those other guys except for maybe Wright to an extent. If he can keep it up, I think you have to keep playing him.
It's still early in the season so we'll see how things unfold. His %'s in ATL were ideal; if we can get that production out of him it's a huge swing.
Not saying THJ is a keeper but don't see what's so special about Wright or Seth as long term pieces either.
