I figure his legal issues are strongly interfering with his pre-draft process. Is he able to to run around the country doing workouts for teams? Is he spending all day in a gym with a trainer? Obviously not..

I was hoping and expecting this to be one of the first replies. You did not disappoint. Jroy have it all.

he's a weird prospect in the sense that his otherworldy speed with the ball is a better fit with the nba's spacing than college, but the nba is tough for non-shooters and he's never shown he can consistently hit from deep. i'd consider him as high as 20-25 i think. his ability and willingness to attack the basket should translate if he can keep defenses honest from deep.

I haven't watched him close enough but this past season he shot .362 from three on 6.7 attempts. Are you saying that's not good?

Man not even in the first round? You must think this is a pretty strong, deep draft then?

he's been inconsistent. game to game and season to season. keep in mind, i left open the possibility that he may be just fine "if he can keep defenses honest from deep". precisely for that reason - 36% on 7 attempts is solid.
his frosh season he shot 25% from three. bumped it up to 35% the next season. to 38% the next season, then back down to 32% his 4th season. and back to 36% his fifth season. his stroke isn't great and i'm just not sure his shooting can be trusted. but if it can be trusted - even just average, with his ability to attack, he could be dangerous.

Sometimes we celebrate these guys who shoot 40%…but they won’t shoot unless they’re wide open, taking a set shot, like they’re in their driveway

That's perfectly fine, but I think it matters to keep in mind. I don't have a great comp for him (maybe ... poor man's Jalen Green).
