K.J McDaniels bet on himself and it paid off, now he's trying to prove he deserves minutes.
When K.J McDaniels was drafted by the 76ers last year, he bet on himself taking a one-year deal because he knew he was worth more than what a second round pick makes.
The Rockets also believed he was worth it, trading for McDaniels before the trade deadline. He did not play much for the Rockets. Even still, they believed so much in his potential in the offseason he was signed to a three-year, $10 million deal.
