I think he can improve his handles. Prob not to Lamelo’s level but maybe to above average handles. His upside would be a lot higher imo.

yeah and when frank improves his handles and aggressiveness watch out :lol:

very few players are able to improve handles in a meaningful way at this stage, i can't really even think of examples. you got it or you don't

Yea, if he could break down the defense and create some offense on his own his ceiling would be much higher. You never know if those things come together but it can be tough to change those tendencies.

I still like him for the player he is, just wouldnt expect him to play like LaMelo, the good and the bad.

Def not expecting him to be Lamelo lol. Just saying if his handle got better his ceiling would be a lot higher. We’ll see if he does improve it
