| 0:00.0 | All right, guys. So we've been chronicling this amazing run that Peyton Watson has been on. |
| 0:05.2 | On the season, you know, he's having a career year, for sure, averaging 14 points per game. |
| 0:11.3 | Over the last 10 games, 22 and a half points, 50% shooting from the field, 42% shooting from 3. |
| 0:18.0 | Sheesh. |
| 0:18.6 | Six rebounds, almost three assists per game in starter minutes he's only 20 three years old what do we think pey and watson could look like in the next five years there are a lot of other you know great two-way players that he's kind of showing shades of. Who are some |
| 0:38.3 | guys that you think he could grow into? Let's dream big too. I hit you guys with one right off the |

| 1:20.2 | I mean, he came into the league as obviously a way better score and even at the same age, a better score. |
| 1:25.8 | I think the difference is, though, Peyton Watson as a defender. |
| 1:33.4 | Yeah. |
| 1:33.7 | Is levels above what Brandon Ingram is. |
| 1:36.9 | So I think naturally, offensively, I don't think he has brand in quite the |
| 1:42.7 | Brandon Ingram feel and just kind of the |
| 1:45.7 | comfortability in the half court on offense. |
