I believe that Daniels will eventually be an All-Star caliber of player in this league. He needs to continue to work on his shot and time & experience will take care of the rest.

One thing I have noticed is he has great instincts on the defense slapping the ball away from opposing players. Seems like when he plays he will get 2-3 a game.

He's got a long road to go offensively still.

He has some nice passes and instincts, but he's not exactly organizing the offense yet, and his scoring bag is pretty behind the curve.

But I like his potential. Of the guys we've drafted post Zion, only Murphy ranks higher in my realistic ceiling.

Not sure he'll make an all star team, but I'd be shocked if he isnt a guy that is in the league a good 12 years and finds a way into a starting lineup on a good team. He has super-Jrue like potential on the defensive side and thats a All-Defense, DPOY candidate.

Pound for pound he’s already our best rebounder and shot block, and possessed more instinct than nearly everyone on the roster. He’s got the potential to be great

You can tell he thinks he should be playing more, and is out to prove it

This is why he needs more time. I can see some offensive potential but right now, he’s an outstanding defender that needs to be utilized. He deserves minutes on a team that could use better defense and defensive rebounding.

Super impressed with his instincts as a rebounder.. He has a knack for predicting the bounce off the rim and working his way around defenders to steal rebounds

Basically the anti Jaxson Hayes in that regard..

The one thing he immediately brings to the table is he gives us what we lost with Hart, which is a guard that can switch 1-4 and boards at an elite level, allowing us to go smaller than you would think possible for stretches without getting destroyed on the boards.

I mean we basically had a unit last night where BI and Murphy were the biggest guys on the court and JJJ was out there....and we were holding our own on the boards thanks in large part to dyson.

Reminds me of a shorter Ben Simmons who isn’t crazy and isn’t afraid to shoot

He could be Rodman-like.
