Looks like he could make the leap and be an elite shooter. He could be a starter in the way a Pat Beverly is a starter. No one would ever make Pat a main ball handler on their team and main innitiator of offense, but you put him beside a James Harden or a couple all stars, it works. Even last year with the Clippers, he was always on the floor with either Lou or SGA. Freddy could possibly start if say Terrence Davis became a solid on ball, high volume creator along with Pascal as a point forward. A lot of "if's", just saying it is not completely out of the realm of possibility. His distributing and ability to run an offense (very low turnovers and 5 assists in 28 minutes) is not nearly as bad as some make it seem, it's when he doesn't have many complimentary players around him and the defense can focus in on him that his lack of size and athleticism hurts the most.
