Sorry, I missed your post. I didn't even go back a page when I first opened the thread today, otherwise I would have definitely quoted you in response if I had seen your post.
Very intrigued by this kid. Still only 18 years old so there is plenty of room for improvement with him. He still doesn't look physically mature enough for the NBA and is yet to fill out his frame. Will need to add some more muscle over the years, no question. But I do love his skill set and foundation he currently has as a player. Shooting mechanics look excellent, range looks like it's not going to be a problem even by NBA standards because he's already shooting from like 3 feet behind the international 3 point line, great mobility for a guy that is 6'9", solid ball handling and some craftiness to his dribble. He could become a nice player and the potential is there. He also fits a need, we don't really have a tall lanky forward with shooting ability to slot into the 3 spot in order to help open up the floor, so there is definitely a fit and a need for a player like him on the team.
