hmm id say na. At peak i see 18 and 8-9 which is more than a handy player. Dont see superstar though, nor does he have to be for the bucks to build a nice team around bogut and yi

Based on what?

He hasn't shown anything but flashes of being good, and those have been far and few between from the games I've seen him player.

How in the world did you get him possibly being a Dirk, let alone a KG? lol

I am a fan of Yi but right now I wouldn't associate the word greatness to his name. He has shown signs of being a very productive player with the Bucks. Does he have the ability to be a constant all NBA type player? I am not quite sure but, I don't see anyone drafted behind him making big strides in their games and should quiet the doubters of his overall game.

Who knows, he's only 20, (or to some people 24). He still has a long ways to go in his game. He really shouldn't be playing right now but since we suck and we aren't winning I guess just giving him experience will be fine.

18/8 player.

much more likely to be the next Keith Van Horn than the next KG. Which isn't bad, Van Horn did put up 16/6.8 for his career.

I think his game is most comparable to Pau but with a little less of a normal post game and more range. I don't know if he'll be that good, but he could also end up being better, so I guess we'll see.

how can i Predict someone going to be great or not after only playing 40 game, even if my Prediction was right as the time goes by that will be pure luck,
because you cant Predict a player season outcome after 40 game, let alone his whole career.
