Giannis is going to be crazy good.

I think Burke develops into a very solid PG.

This. Minnesota's big rotation is something serious with his development.

I wouldn't count out Shabazz this early either, especially with him having very little pressure on him in Minnesota and surrounding by Love, Pekovic, and Rubio where he isn't being pressed to be The Guy right now.

I like Burke. But I think hes more like a DJ Augustin type player. Better suited as a backup PG / off the bench scorer than a full time starting PG. Due to size, they are defensive liabilities. And look to shoot more than pass.

And thats not a knock on Burke at all. Backup PG / scorer off the bench is evolving into a very important position. You can carve out a great career doing that. Look at what DJ has done this year with Chicago. Hes huge for them. But I just dont think Burke develops into a top 20 or so PG. Especially in the West where 12 out of the 15 teams have really really good PGs like Westbrook, Parker, Curry, CP3, Jrue Holiday, Lawson, Lillard, Monte Ellis, Dragic / Bledsoe, Mike Conley Jr, etc.
