From the highlights posted the kid's speed, athleticism, and second jump looks elite. But I question his offense and more importantly "feel" for the game.
His feel for the game is actually coming along, and is probably as good or better than one could reasonably expect given his limited time playing organized basketball at this point in his career.
His offence is still quite limited, and looks like it'll be the last thing to come along. Right now it's basically just setting screens and rim running, and getting offensive rebound putbacks. He's shown glimpses of a little hook shot and a three pointer, but not enough to really consider them part of his repertoire just yet.
But overall I've been getting more and more comfortable with the idea that he might be able to work himself into a rotation role in a couple of years. He's definitely not NBA ready yet, but the timeline I'm eyeing right now (with the understanding that development happens at different paces) is for him to spend most of next year in the G-League as well, but that he might be ready to be a bench big with the Raptors by 2026-27.
Yeah. I think where we are at is that there are "encouraging signs" that he may make it as a prospect. That's all you can really ask for at this point. After next season, I think.we will.know for sure if he is a long term rotation guy or not.
Being a big & being elite athletically allows him to have some advantages that our other prospects don't have. All he has to do is prove that he will be an above average defender & he will have an NBA career..
