I've heard positive things about him (to the extent you hear positive things about marginal players) but I cannot claim to have any real information on him beyond that. Not a Thornwell expert here.

07-06-2020, 02:15 PMsuperstar7thI remember him from S. Carolina's run in final four in 2017. but he hasnt done much in the NBA. Just wondering why him? and who has opted out for pels since miller was always a no go.Quote:

I think he is supposed to be a good defender. Does this mean we release Miller or is someone not going to Orlando?

I think I read 17 players on roster to Orlando

Prob taking Grays spot since we won’t need a point guard. Would have preferred a bigger guy like Blossomgame.

So while I wouldn't absolutely rule it out, I also would not bet on it. And frankly, I don't see many minutes free for him anywayQuote:

Nate Duncan seems to think this could be a nice pickup for the Pels. Likes his outlook for next season if Vinson can fix his shot. Not sure how much time Vinson will have to focus on Thornwell though

I remember loving him in college. Don't remember what he did when he was in the league, and it seems like he didn't do much. Maybe he could get better.
