He’s in a weird situation because he is clearly talented but the high caliber player he was profiled as coming into the draft hasn’t materialized

I had him second behind Mobley that year for a lot of the reasons why he hasn’t been successful so far but as you stated the team isn’t set up all that well for him

However the same argument was made to cover his weaknesses at Oklahoma State

It’s now going on year 4 of him having these issues and while you can argue all 4 years the team hasn’t suited his talents at some point if you are the number 1 pick and had the hype he did you would want to see a lot more out of him than what we currently are

I compared him to a bigger Kyle Lowry coming into the draft, a great #2 guy and leader but someone who lacks the consistent scoring prowess and athleticism needed to be a #1 guy on a high level contender
