Reddish looks like he should be a top pick yet his play during the season was consistently meh. Frustrating to watch really because he just looks like he should be a star. His productivity doesn't match how he looks on the court. RJ is the opposite. He doesn't look nearly as fluid or athletic, yet he was insanely productive compared to Reddish. I still think Reddish is going to be a good pro and one mediocre season at Duke probably doesn't mean a whole lot for his career.

If he had RJ’s mindset this past season, he’d probably be the #2 pick of the draft. He’s so talented


Well that’s the whole thing though. He doesn’t have RJ’s mindset and people are questioning his “motor” and RJ has dog so I’m taking the dog. We already have Knox as our low motor project but even he’s more aggressive at least


Yeah, I only would have seriously entertained taking the gamble on Cam at pick #5. But 4-Culver | 3-RJ | 2-Morant |1-Zion.

That's, like, historically bad. I want no part of Cam Reddish anywhere in the top-10, and absolutely not as the top pick of the Knicks 2019 draft, no matter where that first selection happens.

I get the appeal, but at some point the depth of his 2-point FG% is just a complete do-not-draft-with-a-valuable-pick to me.

Cam is a good set shoot shooter but I need to see more stuff on the move to be impressed. I mean if he lands in ATL and plays with Young then I guess he will get plenty stand still opportunities but overall he still has ways to go to live up to the pre NCAA hype

#5: Garland or Cam
#17: Little or Keldon or Rui or Horton-Tucker or Porter Jr.

All guys who have high upside yet can possibly make an immediate impact.

it's the lack of athleticism and ability to make quick decisions on his drives.

RJ is weird defensively. Beyond being too upright, it's like he sticks with the play just fine, but gives up on the first obstacle.

Nothing actually removes him from staying on ball, he just gives up immediately.

yea i don't see rj having a good time getting around screens. a bit stiff and not really fighting over them.

Cam is that guy that looks good. JR Smith I’m sure would looked like a god in workouts.

Although I do think Cam will make for an excellent NBA career
