1. His rookie numbers are incomparable.
2. His shot chart is hyperefficient.
3. His point differential is spectacular.
4. His diverse talents give the Pelicans options.
5. His weaknesses are few and far between.

he should take more shots in the paint.

Biggest Weakness - mid range jumper and free throws. Thankfully, he doesn't need a mid-range jumper to be super efficient or effective. The free throws on the other hand are a big deal if that doesn't get corrected, especially in crunch time down the stretch.
Everything else, will be Elite sooner than later.

I would say that's a plus. I'd rather him not take inefficient shots and stick to shots in the paint and beyond the arc

His Defense (Specifically his help side) defense has been really bad but that is expected from a rookie has played less than a handful of games. If his defense is at least average by season's end... Oh boy!

How dare you leave out the Cleveland first(two seconds).

According to that article his closest comp is Frank Jackson

He biggest weakness right now is his ball handling. It’s a bit too loose and it’s holding his scoring potential back a bit. Hopefully he can get it tightened up in the offseason.

Wasn’t Lester a big fan of Garland? Tells you all you need to know .

Biggest weakness - Defense.
I hope he's spending time working on "D" with Jrue.
Greatness is inevitable!

I would hesitate to list defense as a weakness only because he’s only played a couple of games and it’s obvious the players move a lot faster than he can react on defense. A big part of that is because these guys have almost 3 months of game conditioning on him. I’d give him until the end of April to adjust to the game speed before I call out his defense.

I support the hell out of NAW and think he's obviously got potential, but I wanted Kevin Porter Jr at that pick.

Do you mean Kevin Porter jr? MPJ was in the 2018 draft.

I definitely wouldn't say that is true.
