Don’t know much about many prospects in this years draft, from everything I’ve read he is lightning quick

Super fast, super athletic, shot almost 50% from 3 in Alabama's last 10-15 games so his shot was improving too

50%? I like the sound of that. He sounds similar to Sexton except with a better jump shot coming out if that makes any sende

Very fast. If his perimeter d is good, breaks with he and Zion would be scary.

Need a shooter though to open up the lane. Hope that’s priority 1 at 24.

He’s also one of the youngest in the draft at 19 and a half. Could add a little weight/strength to his frame. Great pick. Plenty of growth potential both physically and skill wise in a kid that’s already really good.

For the season he was at 36%


He's an 80% ft shooter with the athleticism to get to the basket. Something we need with Jrue gone.

I mean that’s Lonzo’s strength is defense so I think having Kira to come off as that second unit spark plug can create a really good dynamic. I’m excited for the future

Reminds me of Dennis Schroeder

Lewis has a solid foundation for being only 19. Lotta room to grow

Super fast, but doesn't have the explosive first step you might expect. Still hard to stay in front of. Good passer. Known for making one hand crisp passes with both his strong and weak hand. He's solid on defense, but that will be another weakness until his frame fills out. Can play off the ball as a catch and shooter which is super important next to Zion and BI.

I thought he would be off the board for our pick and I've really liked him throughout the process. Ecstatic he's ours. Going to put a lot of pressure on opposing defenses.

Strengths:

Fast
Athletic
Wingspan

Weaknesses:

Perimeter game (he’s more of a rim attacker)
Bulk (apparently he’s put on muscle this offseason tho)

The ceiling is high - love the pick.

Strength - He can kill by writing a name in a notebook, very intelligent and has good deductive skills

Weakness - Fragile ego and overconfidence leads to him to underestimate his opponents, also his girl causes more problems than she's worth
