Could definitely play that kind of role. It is a bad sign that they sub him out for defensive purposes against teams like Wisconsin. He is really going to struggle guarding anyone in the nba. But I think he could be a better version of someone like frank kaminsky.
It really depends if he can get down the floor. Kaminsky is way more nimble defensively. The more time I watch him, the less I think his game is close to translatable. If you draft him, it is purely based on his mental approach to the game, assuming he will transform to fit some kind of team need and be able to get down the floor.
