Jump shot looks pretty nice, fluid and compact with a sweet quick release there!!

As a Wolves fan I don't care about him playing the 2 at all. I want him to be able to play both forward spots well on offense and defense. I want him to shoot the three and drive it to the hoop. I want him to be a playmaker. I want him to be a perimeter defender and defend the rim and rebound well also. Am I asking too much?

I'm interested in how or if he could play the 2 spot in the mold of a young Hayward beside Bridges and Washington

Daustas said he played point guard in the Israeli league and off the ball in the Euroleague. NBA athletes/multiple point guard line-ups are another story, but starting to change my mind about this kid.
Him, Jalen McDaniels, and Cody Martin here looks like a competent defensive line-up off the bench.

I've got to think that Miles goes if the Hornets draft him though.

It's not ideal guy to pick at 3 but if you can guarantee an above average starter in this draft then I'd consider that a win. Impossible to guarantee that though.

Why can't Miles move to PF when playing with Avdija? And why can't PJ play with Avdija at SF in addition to Miles at SF?
SF + PF have 96 minutes between them
96 minutes between 3 players splits to 32 minutes apiece. Why can't PJ log a few minutes as backup center?
Between Miles and play SF or PF.
Avdija can play SF or PF.
PJ can play PF or C.
Avdija SF - 30 minutes
Miles SF - 18 minutes
PJ PF 30 minutes
Miles PF - 18 minutes
PJ C - 6 minutes
In this scenario Miles still plays 36 minutes despite a rookie playing 30 and none of it reduces PJ's minutes.
That 40 minute video with OO made we want us to draft him as much as Wiseman. I suggest you guys check it out. Hes a bam or floor myles turner type. I'd be thrilled to have a guy like that in this draft. The video is in the thread. He gets grilled hard and is 19 years of age. I was really impressed with the comparison and his maturity. I physical gifts are there for certain.KGdaBom wrote:MasterIchiro wrote:Vanderbilt_Grad wrote:I was pretty anti-Deni early on. Now I'm neutral.

I believe he can coexist with Miles and PJ just fine. We need him more. We don't even have one reliable SF/PF. I still take Wiseman first, but Deni would not be a bad consolation prize.
