Jrue and Teague have done just as much as Jennings in the league. Reality is, none of them are difference makers, or ever have been.
Both have been all-stars; has Jennings?
Jamal Maglore was also an all star at one point.
Does it matter? None of them are needle movers. My point was Hammond swung for the fence on a guy who took his talents overseas and was rated (top 3, #1) in his HS class but had maturity issues. All three were solid. All three do not push a team to another level and all three have flaws. Hammond generally will look for a high upside pick in the draft.
Both Jeff Teague and Holdiay are clear upgrades over Jennings. Not only that, both Teague and Holiday are some of most elite passers in whole league ,creating 15,4 ( Teague )and 14,3 ( Holiday) potential assists per game, both ranked in top 8 . Players who create more potential assists than them : Lebron, Westbrook, Harden, Chris Paul, Wall, Rubio. That's literally it. They contribute to around 33 points per game, they both score over 15 and distribute another 17-18 points per game via assists ( by nba tracking ).
Honestlly, how many players in nba are " needle movers" ?
