Oh, um, one thing, Mitch, just cop Jack just talked about.

That I found interesting is he said, He said, We you shouldn't just think of Low mellow as a point guard, he said, the way the position in this basketball is considering his height, Considering everything else, he said, We're going to find ways to blend him.

He said it maybe play some point forward, he said.

He said, You should not simply think that there's a crowd of people playing point guard.

Could you sort of talk about considering your combination of skills and size, how you think you fit in tow into a basketball team in general?

That way I feel like I fit anywhere really good and definitely the point for I feel like it could work because it's definitely position less basketball now.

You could just get it and go.

So Mrs definitely saying the right stuff.

He said that the thing you they're most excited about is your ability to push it because it's because Borrego has really wanted to increase the pace of this team.

You think of yourself as somebody who's really good in transition, the way that they describe Oh, yeah, Definitely.

I love transition.

I would love that.

The team would get in transition and I feel like it's gonna be fun.

Is you?

Thank you.

The next question will be matt from hornets dot com.

I love Melo.

Congratulations on becoming part of the Charlotte Hornets.

First off, can you just talk to me about how excited you are to play with a young core of guys and Miles Bridges, PJ Washington Davante and a group of guys?

Yeah, I'm definitely excited.

I've been seeing them ever since I was young for riel miles at Michigan State and stuff in Huntington Beach and all that and then PJ I played him when he was at Finland stuff.

It's gonna be exciting.

I mean, to high flyers can get out and go.

And we got a young team, so I mean, yeah, I feel like it's gonna be nice.

Do you feel like this team really kind of fits your style of play of wanting to get up and down the court quite a bit?

Yeah, definitely.

I love getting up and down, so if that's placed all that definitely fits.

The next question will be JB Ricks Hey, Lemelle o J b Ricks here from Spectrum News one in North Carolina.

Congratulations on, uh, being drafted by the Charlotte Hornets.

I just have a curious question.

You know, with ah lot of the mock drafts that were coming out coming into, uh, coming into the night, you were projected to go number one overall.

Was there any surprise at all that you felt to number three?

And what are your thoughts That you that you felt, too, a new organization like the Charlotte Hornets?

Uh, definitely feel great falling into with them.

But the way of falling down.

And I never looked at it like that because, like I say, whatever happens, happens.

And I feel like his God's plan.

So whatever he wanted to put me, that's where you put me and I feel like you're gonna let me blossom there.

And my follow up to that is you will be playing for Michael Jordan, who is obviously considered to go greatest of all time.

When it comes to the sport of basketball, your immediate thoughts about playing for him is your owner man.
