For Landry Shamet and Connor Frankamp today:
37 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, ZERO turnovers. Are they better than Fred and Ron?

Those stats don't reflect defense. I think Fred and Ron were better defensive duo than Landry and Connor.

VanVleet is playing summer league - still with the Raptors. The Raptors have something like 4 PG's on their roster, including the PG from the US Olympic team, and a guy who's considered the best backup PG in the league.
Cleanthony Early is in summer league with San Antonio.
I think Fred sticks in the league and Early - better have a good summer. Fred didn't get a lot of court time in Toronto. He got occasional assignments to the D-League to get PT. He ate that league up when he played in it. Led the Raptors D-League team to the playoff championship of the D-League. It appeared he was sent to the D-League just to help the Raptors team there win the playoffs. He was immediately back in Toronto and getting PT in the playoffs after the D-League playoffs were over.

The raptors are looking at possibly trading their PG. That might open up opportunities for Fred.

I wouldn't normally bump this thread, but this was a surprise to me. I thought I'd share with others who watched Baker for so many years.
Scott Perry, the Knicks GM, named Baker as one of their 5 core players going forward.
If you'd rather I not post things like this in the future, I will not. Just thought this might be of interest to MVC fans.
