I see where you're coming from. I just think that Broome is such a per-minute point production beast that he'll find a way throughout the game to accrue buckets.
In his 6 year college career, his per-36 points per game sits at an impressive 21.1.
In this Summer League game, his points per 36 was at 19.5 (pretty much in line with what we should expect).
Enough proof to suggest this guy can flatout score whether or not offense is being run for him and whether or not he's at a physical disadvantage.
Do you feel me on this slightly? Or maybe I'm being too high on him.
I think you're just a bit high on him. Broome will figure out a way to be effective at this level, but it's just really hard to compare college stats and SL to what he's going to be facing every night when it's for real. Jailblazers made a great point that he should look at Hartenstein as a way to make himself valuable offensively, passing out of the short roll and developing a floater. He isn't going to get bigger or more athletic, and that's always what's going to create a ceiling for him unless he can develop a consistent corner 3 and stretch the floor a bit.
