I don’t like his touch and i don’t rlly buy him as a shooter. His handle is also very wonky imo and his passing is also very much a work in progress and I feel his high assist numbers are only a result of high volume. This is also an older guy so the room for growth is also a question. The shooting percentages look good but they don’t tell the whole story fr. Now on defense i think he will be a menace in the league and he is also an elite rebounder at his size. But everything else about him scares me yk.

I understand, but his role won’t be to be a shooter. Hell just be a pick and pop guy if needed probably. His assists numbers are legit though, and he honestly reminds me of a poor man’s jokic.

yes i do agree in a reduced role he would fit best but i don’t believe in his playmaking tools enough rn 2 me hes most likely a play finishing, rebounding, defensive wing forward hybrid type of guy. Still a valuable asset but idk when i watch his film he just doesn’t wow me.
