From the two games I saw today in person, here are my thoughts:

Jaren Jackson should be good. He was hitting some crazy 3s.
Kobi Simmons looked good. Super skinny though, needs to bulk.
Trae Young shot horribly. But had some decent playmaking.
Omari Spellman also seems like he should be good. Had several nice dunks down low.
Junior Robinson is 5’5”!!!

Grayson Allen didn’t seem to play all that much. Nearly had a triple double. Moved the ball well.
Derrick White, I kept checking the box score and he had a ton of points and I was like when did that happen??
Georges Niang looked good. Shot the ball well.
Some guy named Ray played pretty well too.
Lonnie Walker didn’t seem to get involved that much at all. Hopefully he is involved more tomorrow.

Jaren Jackson has an odd release but I like him. Seems like the type to fill out pretty well as he gets older too.

Trae shot so many airballs... that's a bit troubling.

Yeah kinda has this weird flick/push thing going on or something but it worked.

Some people saying Allen struggled. If a near triple double is a struggle performance, then i'm happy haha.

Surprisingly most the crowd cheering hard for him. Harder than they did for Young or Jackson or anyone else.
 
But the media guys still seem kinda hating.
 
Also I think a lot of the players will perform better when surrounded by better talent. Young, Allen, Walker etc. Should open things up more for them.

Trae not looking good. Jackson and Spellman, Simmons, White all looked good.

Niang for the Jazz looks good. Wish we had a roster spot for him.

Frank Jackson seems to be doing well so far. 
 
Aaron Holiday doesn't look bad either.

Very raw as a basketball player. Good athlete and defender though. Could make a roster
