Re: Derik Queen
He needs to get comfortable working without perfect spacing too IMO. I don’t like babying prospects in a way where they can only function with every player on the floor having to be a certain type.
I like him mostly at C, but he’ll be better long term if he can adapt to playing with a congested paint.

Re: Derik Queen
After watching him have a good game against the Blazers, I see him as a C/PF...maybe with a ceiling like Domantas Sabonis. I liked him okay going into the draft, but felt like he needed the exact right fit in order to really excel..still think that.
