Yeah, he is that good..You have to see the game..He is the best player on the court..He can't shoot but it doesn't stop him from excelling at everything else..His problem is that he gets upset and frustrated at mates because they can't keep up and don't expect his passes..The commentators, particularly David Aldridge was giggling all night that he fell to the 7th spot..
The thing is, you won't be able to get a good feel for him in a workout..You have to see him play..Stein, Kaminsky etc are not in his league..He is a franchise player..It's understood that he will be starting day one in Denver and right now it's probably his team..
He looks like Pearl Washington playing at Syracuse is the best way to describe it..Only thing is he is big, quick and athletic..
If I was GM of the Knicks......that would've been my pick. It was the safest low bust pick with John Wall potential prior to the draft. I think he will be a great player from the start. And KP will eventually catchup to him, but that will come further down the line. Out the gate, Mudiay will shine.....
But if you told me we could have KP and Grant vs Mudiay alone, then I like our picks over Mudiay.
