I hope we hold onto him in the coming years. A young cost-controlled two-way player is an amazing asset.

Dang Christie is up to 46% shooting on spot up 3s this season. 44% for his career.

Someone should tell Darvin Ham. Or maybe not because then he'd cut Christie's minutes for dare threatening to take playtime away from Prince.

This guy can be a star in his role. Of that I’m sure. We’ve wasted so much development time this year. We have to ride him and continue growing him. This dude on a lot of other teams would be a PROBLEM. He can easily be that 4th or 5th best guy on a roster that really takes you over the top.

41% from the corners btw

Can't have him taking rebounds away from TP.

He was great. He closes so many possessions with his rebounding.

He's clearly going to be a useful player going forward. Hopefully we him more playing time so he can develop further. Really valuable minutes for him tonight, at the beginning of the year he wasn't getting much playing time in minutes that mattered.

Max Christie is coming into his own. He understands his role and has been pretty consistent of late.
If he keeps it up at this pace, he'll earn plenty more playing time.

It’s time for him to shine, vando and reddish will not be available for the next stretch, and he will get a lot of runs as POA defender

Max played 26 minutes tonight including the whole fourth quarter. He was a team High +12. Great experience for him.

Did he ever had a POA defense on Brunson or has it been all TP ?

His defensive prowess really sticks out. He is by far the best perimeter guard defender. Just his defense alone warrants more playing time and I didn’t realize he also shoots that well from 3. This kid absolutely needs more playing time!

I think he’s also cut down on the TOs/the rookie mistakes. He’s ready for some of Vando minutes
