Except his body is nothing like Billy and we have 0 idea if he can play any center or even hang with the bigger stretch 4’s at all. The dude is Jaxson Hayes but literally 50 lbs lighter. Jax is 220. Who knows what Butlers game will end up being.

No one yet. However, at 19, he may be worth seeing how he progresses on the 2-way deal.

I don't think he was comparing his game to Billy's, just the actual idea that Billy can not play for stretches, then does play when it's matchup specific. I think that was all he was comparing, that he could be very matchup dependent if he does end up being a player deserving of a roster spot.

I mean, every 2-way dude is going to be a project, and it's a win if they just make a roster for a few seasons.

Butler is nothing like Jax. The only trait they share is length.

Butler is an oversized wing. Very intriguing prospect that I don’t think ever develops a post game tbh.

Also, Jaxson will have a better year than many anticipate he will have. To justify the continued hate they’ll say it was a “contract year.” Fuuck all that noise though, let my boy run!

The kid is skilled. And this is literally the best place on Earth to put weight on someone. Develop the kids game, feed him extra rice with the gumbo, and see what you have.
