Two time national player of the year, already an outlier developer skill-set wise, historically great BPM and Win Share marks at the college level, yet NBA GMs aren’t the highest on him. It seems some lottery teams are working him out and looking at him as a prospect, so that makes more sense I reckon.
Either way, I think his paint presence, post gravity, Shaq esque ability to foul out teams front courts, and rock solid agility for his size make him a safer pick than a lot of prospects. How good could he be at his ceiling though? All-NBA or MVP upside for example?

I really want the Spurs to draft him.

I would say Brook Lopez, a player who solid post moves, a decent outside shot in pick and pop as well as one of the most elite rim protectors in the game.
Now it takes a bit of luck, and playing with an otherworldly athlete like Giannis helps, but Brook Lopez would be who I would want him to strive for.
