Long arms, can shoot, doesn't play PF in college and more athletic than Chandler Parsons!

He better become CJ McCollum with defense and passing.

Damn glad to have him, he is the one guy I loved in this draft.

Reminds me a bit of a modernized version of Sidney Moncrief.

Watching him play on Team USA in the FIBA U18, he definitely looks more comfortable playing with better talent. He was scoring at will in the Canada game. Lot of off ball play. Still looked terrible on defense.

Very Dwayne Wade-ish to me with the way he gets to the basket and finishes around it. Can shoot the hell out of it too.

Defense is a concern... although as we have seen in the past with teams like the Warriors... you can have guards that are average defenders if you have an elite shot blocking center. I'm sure it will improve.

Wade is way quicker IMO.

Is it a 100% guarantee Sixers are taking Fultz? Could it all be a big smokescreen to take Lonzo come draft day? :o
