Caris LeVert makes some sense.

Paul George post injury also comes to mind.

He is listed as 6'5 but early in the season there were rumors that he has grown to 6'7-6'8 and could be still gtowing - eye test imo confirms it comfortably.

A larger Caris LeVert is the exact comparison I made to a friend yesterday. It's not a perfect comparison, LeVert is a bit more quick twich/shifty, but in terms of being versatile, high IQ offensive players with savvy below the rim finishing and solid if not proven shooting, as well as length/size and the possibility to be solid on defense, there's some parellel's to be made.

Culver is in the 2nd tier for me with RJ and Ja. If he can bulk up and seriously play minutes at SF, I think he's going to be really good.

Culver should be looked at as a 3 not a 2 anyways. Which actually makes him even more intriguing as prospect because of that playmaking from the 3 spot.

I agree, it's on that basis I have him top 4. His size is legit and the frame looks very promising. He could end up being really strong.

Culver's skill definitely becomes more intriguing at 6-5 vs 6-8. He's pushing Barrett in my mind for 3rd best player in the draft.

Watch the film vs. Duke. He is as big if not bigger than RJ and Cam.

I know why Culver kind of reminds me of Butler and Kawhi, it’s because he has such discipline in his jumper and his movements. He’s like a robot (in a good way). Like hes practiced these moves a million times. I have him as the fourth pick right now, I think he has room to get better and I think he can be a multiple time all-star at some point in his professional career.

I watched the Duke game with that comparison in mind , and I thought was roughly the same size as RJ. Definitely smaller than Cam.

But he has a great frame and plays big, so I consider his size to be a positive.

Top 3:
1. Zion Williamson
2. Ja Morant
3. DeAndre Hunter

Yeah - dude is taller than 6'5". I would say 6'7". Bodes VERY well.

Even if he is 6’5, it doesn’t make a huge difference for me. The difference is the ability to defend bigger guys, but offensively I don’t see it hurting his game much.

I dont know about that comparison. I feel like Carys is a better ball handler while Culver is a better shooter. Culver reminds me alot of Kerry Kittles

Yeah, it makes no sense.

Steve Smith is the blast from the past player I think of. A jack of all trades who can play some point forward.

I can see this one for sure

I am still down on him. Saying Steve Smith would be close but that style of ball don't work in today's NBA. He will likely be another Evan Turner. E-Z Pass from me
