Dyson Daniels joking that the New Orleans fans made fun of him for eating Chipotle and sent him lists of restaurants that were absurdly long. ''Had me scrolling for a good minute''

Dyson Daniels saying that he's looking forward to leverage his defensive prowess to help the Pels go on a deeper playoff run.

Liddell says that he's going to focus on fitting into his role and that he sees that involving really mastering his catch and shoot abilities.

Daniels saying that he can be multipositional and feels comfortable switching 1-4, and wants to 'earn my minutes, playing different roles on this team'' in training camp.

Trajan is talking about the value of having a team filled with people who can playmake for themselves and others; cites our AST% being high, particularly after the CJ trade.

It makes sense. Camera perspective is a thing, but we have heard rumours that Daniels might be more like 6'8, 6'9 than 6'7 and that would make him taller than Liddell anyway, so if that's what we're seeing it fits.

Well he's 6-8 and Lidell is 6-7 so that makes sense.

A little sad to see Dyson choose #11.
