Elijah Mahi to Portsmouth Tourney

Nice to see Elijah get a chance to play in this tournament, which has reliably produced NBA picks, primarily in the 2nd round.

Obviously there is a longtime trend toward younger players being selected in the NBA Draft… but the PIT seems to remain relevant. Adama Bal played in the PIT, I believe.

I do thing Elijah’s frame and self-generating offensive capabilities have application at a higher level of the game. Would be nice to see him get a chance in the G-League and/or NBA.

He played probably the best game of his career with Warriors GM Mike Dunleavy sitting courtside at the USF away game so that can’t hurt.

If Mahi wants to play in the NBA he’s gonna have to get serious about his conditioning. The coaching staff was never that happy with his level of conditioning while at SCU
