What went wrong in the career of a player who was voted the #2 rookie in his class, barring an ACL injury? Well, he played for teams (PHO, GSW) where his big plus "BIG MAN good at 3pt" wasn't particularly big because they were already outstanding 3pt teams without him, so he didn't get the playing time he would have gotten with his qualities in most other NBA teams.
Some will say that he is coming to Denver, which has the strongest Jokic-AG-MPJ frontcourt trio in the league, but the Nuggets need a tall player who can hit the three and cultivate an all-around style of play (not just Jokic but also Millsap, Gordon, Plumlee, DMC), so if he fits well and fulfills his potential, minutes will not be a problem even from the bench for a player who can cover PF and C positions both.

Not sure about his previous teams but he'll fill a great need for us. Do have concern about him playing C for us, gotta be small-ball but he looks to give life to our bench. Best move of the off-season for us.

He is a shooter who I expect will receive a number of scoring opportunities created by Westbrook. Both will anchor the bench.
Canned in Denver.
