Sorry to be the negative one, but I don't think he's going anywhere - if I were in Danny's place he'd be gone. Either by trade, or if that's not possible then waived.
Sounds harsh I know but we are trying to win now, and we have limited spots available for raw prospects - there are at least three prospects who have shown more promise than Young despite less experience.
I think the problem with love is the same problem with Jeff Green - lack of drive, lack of motivation, lack of confidence, lack of motor. I honestly believe that when it comes to personalities, people are who they are - you can't change a person.
I'm sure Young will develop into a guy who can earn rotation NBA minutes some day, but I think anybody expecting more than E'Twaun Moore out of him is going to end up disappointed.
I hope I'm wrong, but right now I just don't have the patience to find out. If I had to choose one man to waive out of a four man rotation of Rozier, Hunter, Mickey and Young then I'm sorry...but it would be a no brainer.
All this from just one season LOL. I wonder how you felt about Avery Bradley's first season. I know I can remember what the general tone around him was then.
I'll put money down that James Young has a better season next year and the tune around here will change pretty quickly. He's not looked great in the little opportunities he's had but I attribute his rookie season to pure bad lack. (reasons listed below)
-Missed all of Summer League (injury/precautionary)
-Missed almost of pre-season. (hamstring injury) (missed all games except the first)
-Marcus Thorton Contract year. (this is why he was traded to free some mins for Young)
-Behind Bradley/Turner/Thorton/Green in the mins rotation because of depth issue and injury set backs.
-D League Shoulder Injury
-Acquisiton of Jae Crowder who was also in a contract year.
-Acquisition of Thomas who only made the SG depth much worse for Young.
The lack of playing time came from several reasons and none of them were because he's a bad player.
I'll be honest I think James one is just one of our guys who have the most potential on this team, he's not going anywhere. I have very high hopes for Rozier, Young & Hunter.
