He’s a better college player than pro.

He was fun to watch at the end of this year. He and bashir have no conscious at times.

My opinion only… I think he Ian going to struggle with the athleticism in the league

Projected to be late first/early 2nd, and could make the same $$$ in NIL

Hope I’m wrong

Stamina, defense and athleticism are big question marks for him.

Remember when Rick was "crying" that he was running out of NIL

I agree completely. I do not think he is good enough on offense to be a defensive liability on the court.

He’s not athletic at all.

Now he could have some success as a stretch big who can shoot the 3… but going to be tough on the defensive end for him
