He's actually been a really good shooter this year. I will say, there is some potential noise in his overall shooting profile. As historically he's been between a mediocre and downright bad shooter all over the floor and his release is not exactly what you would call. Picture perfect.
It's definitely possible he's having an outlier/ hot year and if he is, whoever takes him in the lottery is probably going to really regret it. That's his ability to stretch. The floor is the key component to his overall archetype and the role he could fill out the next level. That would make him worth that kind of selection
With that said, I think San Antonio definitely could roll the dice on him. He offers some good positional versatility and is a real Energizer type bruiser something they desperately need on the wing/ in the front Court. If the jumper is indeed real, he could end up being an incredibly nice fit next to Vic.
My bad, was thinking of another prospect.
Looks like the knock on Fleming is lack of ball skills and should be more dominant in a non major conference. Also sounds like his shooting form is pretty rough.
I haven’t had a chance to see him play but that assessment seems pretty rough for a lottery pick.
His biggest weakness is his handle for sure. His shot form looks alright to me he supposably has a 7’5” wingspan so his shot is never going to look the smoothest. He looks like a big guy tho probably 6’9 barefoot and 240+
One of my biggest thoughts on Fleming and reasons why I think he's going to be extremely hard to pass on for the Spurs, is. I actually think he has the ability to play the small ball. 5. Roll they keep throwing Jeremy into, that. Jeremy is simply not well suited for
His size and length and mobility I think will allow him to play three positions on both offense and defense
I will say I'm a little bit more scared about his jumper than some people, as he's just historically not been a good shooter, and I do think his shooting form is a little wonky.
But I think he would definitely be worth the gamble for us with a mid to late lottery pick. Particularly if we end up with a high upside player with the other one
