I love Cole Anthony’s “give a shit” factor so much. He wants to beat you and want you to know about it. And, for the most part, it comes within the team game. He’s not just about getting his.
It’s going to be fun to watch how the Magic guard situation shakes out. Lots of talent. – 7:29 PM

Cole Anthony uses the hesitation dribble, gets to the basket, absorbs contact, and finishes. Good stuff! pic.twitter.com/m5FlW6BS7z7:28 PM
