Frank Mason: NBA Starter
-
FM getting his first action, but it is tough. 9 mins, no stats except one turnover and 0-3 FG. Sac losing 49 to 38 at Denver with 7:28 left in the 3rd.
-
@mayjay Frank ended up with 7 points, they had an article written up on him about the Denver game. - -Showed him driving and making his 1st NBA basket. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer54 Yeah, I saw that this morning. Definitely perked up his game after I went to bed!
-
The Suns must be really bad for JJ to be having such a average start to his career. 3 rebounds in 3 games… Just not like him
-
On the other hand, Kelly Oubre rebounding like crazy…
-
@BeddieKU23 I watched part of a game and josh looked very frustrated and unhappy! The announcer said when josh was heading to the bench that he was a good example of benefiting from another year of college.
-
Jackson’s number are not bad (except rebounding) but the team is free falling. Not really a lot of talent, coach fired after 3 games and now Eric Bledsoe sent home and not playing and apparently being traded. Too bad Jackson and Mason ended up in two of the worst franchises.

I see there is a lot of dysfunction in Phoenix already.
Coach fired.
Bledsoe tweets I don’t wanna be here.
Bledsoe sent home with intent on being traded.
As far as JJ, seen some of his highlights now. Looks like a lot of stuff he did at KU besides filling the stat sheet. I’m sure it will come as they lean on him with this obvious painful rebuilding year ahead.
-
He’s definitely filling his role nicely. Big year for him as there was some doubt after his antics in the playoffs whether he’d be in the Wizards plans long-term. He looks much improved from the opening game I saw against the Sixers
-
Looks like the Kings getting a great return on that money they spent for George Hill. 12 points in his last 77 minutes. 15 assists on the season for a POINT GUARD.
Come on Kings play your young guys. Hill is there collecting that 20 mil, nothing more, nothing less.
-
Sacramento had a 17 point lead at he beginning of the second half and then Boogie went to work and almost single-handedly crushed the Kings. They certainly could have used Mason’s toughness.
Sacramento is one crappy franchise right up there with Phoenix. Too bad both KU players drafted ended up there.
-
Looks like Kelly is making his career getting fines already. Throwing punches… jeesh
-
To stay on topic. Frank had 11 last night in 20 minutes. Play him, they are already 1-5 and its not going to get better.
-
Frank had 4 points tonight in 21 minutes as the Kings got a rare win against Portland. He didn’t shoot the ball well at 1/6 but was +12 for the game. Also dished out 3 assists while grabbing 3 rebounds.
-
Frank had 11 and 6 last night! solid outing
-
I enjoyed this thought I’d pass it on

@Kubie Interesting that his NBA averages through the Article date (Nov 16) are almost identical to his KU freshman year stats. 5.6 pts & 2.1 assists in NBA, 5.5 pts &2.1 assists as a freshman.

Hopefully be year 4 he’ll be averaging 20 a game
-
@BShark I’ll play him next game on Draft Kings. I’ve been cleaning up with Mario starting in Memphis.
-
I saw where Frank was left in to close out a close game over the warriors. Set a season high with 14 points and has the Kings fans impressed with his steady play when the heat is on. I do believe he is carving himself out a long career in the NBA.
-
@Kubie he played well last night. It must be tough for him and Fox coming from colleges that win left and right to the black hole know as the kings.
-
-
Great article on Mason; thanks for posting it.
-
Another good outing for Frank in a loss to the Bucks this evening, had 13 points and 4 assists in 23 minutes with a +16 for the game. Fox played 21 minutes and filled the stat sheet but was -16. To me they look so much better when Frank is out there.
-
@kjayhawks he just keeps proving himself!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 hopefully he continues to get pt and stick around for a while. A solid back up PG is always important. Maybe when his 3 years are up with the kings he can pair up with a better organization.
-
Good to see Frank getting minutes. He’s just in a bad spot to succeed. They always do the wrong thing.

Happy Birthday!!!

@approxinfinity Happy Birthday! Party hearty!

Thanks ladies and gents

I watched most of the Kings/76ers game last night. The Kings were behind by double digits, then Frank came in and dominated the game as the point guard. Dished, lifted his teammates, and also scored a career high of 16. No way the Kings win that game without him. He has some kind of torso injury because he was wrapped and in warmups toward the end of the game. Otherwise, he is their closer and would’ve been in there for the last 5 minutes or so. Funny, I was watching ESPN Sportscenter this morning just to see what they said about the game, because I couldn’t hear the announcers at the sports bar where I was watching, but Frank was constantly in the camera and was no doubt getting compliments from the announcers. But the “highlights” on ESPN didn’t say a word about Frank or show his killer plays. Once again, ESPN was clueless and missing the summarizing that game. Very disappointing ESPN. Frank was a freaking stud out there and toyed with Philly’s guards. And it’s obvious that the King’s bigs love and prefer to play with Frank at the point. Fun to watch!

@approxinfinity Have a good one!

@Kubie Wow, that’s fantastic! Saw the blocks on the stat line, was wondering who it was. One wooden award winner to another…
-
Mason had 2 points last night in a Kings win.
Jackson, starting for the Suns had 17 in a loss last night.
