In a small sample size metrics like on/off and DFG% ranked among the best in the league. Hornets defense was 4.3 points better with him on the floor. He barely qualified with only 50% of games played but his DFG% in the paint ranked first in the league among centers. There is no way that he could sustain a -17.8 DFG% in a bigger role but I would be tempted to at least give it a try.
He's either mentally ill or using methamphetamine lately. He requires some time away from the NBA for treatment either way. Also, if Jason Kidd couldn't tolerate Christian Wood or JaVale McGee, he won't stand for Kai Jones. Kidd would really hate Kai Jones.
