Man, I have literally watched every finish that Sexton has attempted this year at Alabama in synergy, when he can load up on the open court and can take that force from running into blowing by guys cause of eating space, he can rise and finish, in half-court? no chance, he is basically trying to buy FTs, he isn't going to be finishing over guys in the NBA out of PnR
He is a solid athlete with some really cool coordination and instinctual plays in terms of carving space or recognizing patterns to drive, but not a nuclear guy that can load up and soar, like a Dennis Smith
I disagree he cannot ,despite being able to blow by defenders and use his athleticism to create angles etc, Sexton showed he is one of the most explosive players in space esp off of two feet in this draft. Watch more film.
I think Fishcella is on point here. He's super quick, and if he gets an open lane in transition or just in the gym by himself he can really get up and show off the vertical, but he can't elevate in traffic well and that showed at Alabama but fortunately he relied on getting to the line a lot. It's really night and day when you look at uber athletic guards like Westbrook, Mitchell, Smith Jr, Oladipo, etc. It's no secret I've never been a fan of Sexton but I'll be rooting for him.
