I feel this isn’t mentioned enough on monumental fuck ups. Melo is 22 and looking amazing while Wiseman can’t even crack the rotation in Detroit.
He wouldn’t have been handed the keys as quickly, but he would have been mentored by Curry and Klay, while having a lot of similarities in his game. In 3 years, Melo will be 25 and Klay/Curry/Dray will be retired- will this look even worse as time goes on?
Funny how it’s kinda similar to Pistons missing out on the other Melo in 2003
