Wow. He's pretty young and I've usually liked what I see. Surprised he couldn't find a job as a cheap backup.

He has no pg skills and plays too soft for the 2 spot.

Great athlete and a good kid but he hasn't really been able to put it together in nba. I don't think his handles are strong enough for him to take full advantage of his speed and athleticism. His numbers weren't terrible last season though. I thought somebody would take a chance on him given the money that was being thrown around.
