He's the ideal 1-5 defender, switch everything, maybe can shoot sooner then expected.
Highish upside if we develop him right. He's not day 1 ready.
Rex is right, he is a project with a lot of tools .

Note- I am not a draft person and know very little about prospects.
With that said, we picked an athlete/defender. He looks the part athletically. High motor.
What I don’t like- raw offensively and older for a freshman (21).
In all honesty, he looks a lot like Bam to me athletically. It would take a miracle for him to develop like Bam did, but seems like a good risk at 20. At worst, he is a backup big.

The pick was a homerun. To get talent like that at 20 you can’t beat it. I had him top 15

Saw some highlitghts and im good with this pick. He is undersize but plays with energy and hearth it seems. Great wingspan and we gonna make him work hard. If he learn to shot well its a W.

This all day.
He's not Kawhi, at all, but I've seen him draining 3's in a rate you would not think possible for a freak 6'9 athlthe.
I love 2 things :
1) Penny talked to Pat about him, no doubt.
2) We actually HAD HIM PRACTICE for us, you bet your ass we put in every drill possible, this is not a blind Winslow kind of a pick.

so we basically got 6'9 Kawhi Leonard with 7'2 wing span.



3rd best winnng%(73.3%) + most wins(11w) = best true winning % OP

Great tools... Physically ready to compete...quick feet.. now we can play suffocating defense for 48 minutes
Looks even more twitchy than Bam at Kentucky.. surprised he can handle the ball..Could be an steal
