Not only is he young and untested, but he can play second and third base as well as shortstop. What position he’ll more or less settle into in 2026 has been one of the more enigmatic questions of the offseason.One piece…

Fifteen seconds. That’s how long, in real time, it took for Hugo Gonzalez to step onto the court at the Barclays Center and hit the biggest shot of his young NBA career.

But that production came at a cost. Crawford spent nearly the entire season pitching through a knee injury, which lingered throughout the following offseason and into spring training. Crawford went on to miss the whole year, first due to the knee issue and then due to a freak wrist injury suffered in an accident at home.…
