Without a jumper, he's totally useless in the NBA. He won't last more than a couple years, if that.
His offensive game just doesn't translate to the NBA and he's too slow and unathletic to play defense.
The same argument was made about Big Baby and look at his NBA career.
To a lesser extent Tyler Hansbrough, who was able to hang around the NBA for 8 years and is currently playing overseas.
I’m not saying Timme is going to be a great pro, but guys like him going into the league and developing skills that allow them to stay on rosters is not unheard of

His main weakness is like most of the current big men in the NBA. How will he be able to guard the pick and roll with the crazy athletic guards and wings in the NBA.
He will have to continue to excel with offensive game in the post, his rebounding, and be able to shoot 3pt shots effectively to stay in the league. That is basically the criteria for any big man.

Not even comparable, because both hansborough and Davis came into the league way before the NBA turned into a 3 point shooting contest.
Davis is significantly larger than timme, and could bang with NBA bodies. Hansborough was a better college player, and was longer and more athletic than timme.
Timme looked like he was in slow motion against uconn last night; it would be exponentially worse against NBA players.
