Hes a guy who lacks great athletic ability--which is why hes not a great rebounder--but hes the high IQ multi skilled role player that could find a spot on someones roster and advance over the next several years as a valuable chip in a 10 man rotation. I just saw some people talking about him in the comment section of the WalterFootball NBA mock draft. |

When you can handle the ball at his size like he does--you can shoot and post--you're a smart and willing passer--you mix it up on D and you have all the nuances---thats a modern day high caliber role player.

I'm actually a bit surprised many don't like him as a 1st round pick. He may not have the sexiest upside in the world but he has the skill set to produce on the NBA-level from what I've seen.

The NBA is a whole different monster though which is something i keep saying. You have to have much more than just talent to be able to make it in the NBA. We see players with plenty of talent in college or overseas that don't make it in the NBA all the time. You watch this kids tape and he clearly has plenty of talent so maybe the Knicks can get him and he can become something but we won't know that until we actually see it.
