There's nothing Bailey does poorly that can't be improved.
Fears is a pg. All teams need them. And they have higher value than most positions, because of their ability to create, for themselves and others. He does this much better than Bailey as a basketball player.
Positionally, Fears has solid size. He's a quarter inch taller than Westbrook measured. He's viewed as solid-sized pg. I anticipated this response, but it's a bad reason. 56.2 ts% for Fears, 53.6 for Bailey. And Fears actually had the better lack of teammates excuse. No Dylan Harper there.
I don't even understand what the debate is here. Fears is a good prospect with good size for his position. He did shoot it worse from the field and from 3 than Bailey. Most, if not all, consider Bailey to be a better shooter/scorer even if his shot selection is poor.
I would gamble on him. Bailey and Harper's team success is clearly not an issue for most teams in the 2-5 range.
