What do you think of Kevin McCullar? To my uneducated eyes he looks a bit like JJJ and Butler being able to play in traffic some. Do you think he will continue to be able to draw fouls in the NBA?
I havent kept up with any wings. Ive been focusing solely on bigs who can cover lots of ground on D and shoot well on O and point guards.
Heres a fun comp though:

I've watched him a bit more since you mentioned him. He isn't afraid to draw contact. I think that mindset will keep him active at the FT line. His FTA rate is very solid.
I wonder if he could be placed at the point...? He's got decent passing chops. He runs the offense well enough. I think his size and defensive mentality would be a big boon there.
watched most of the YouTube stuff on him, He was a point forward at TT before transferring to Kansas. It appears he had a late growth spurt too. Seems he was last measured at in HS at 6-5.5 but is more recently referred to as 6-6 or 6-7 depending on the source.
several scouting reports (for whatever those are worth) list him as maybe the best defender in the draft, that is projected to be able to guard 1-4 in the NBA, but only a complimentary scorer...not someone who can create his own shot in the NBA.
I don't think any of the reports really give him credit for his ability to get to the Free Throw line
