The passing I don't believe will ever be his forte but if he gets to Melo's level passing with his other positives he should be a multi time All Star Get to know this site before you make unsubstantiated claims.

He's very good from there. Unfortunately that's not even close to half of his shots. |

The thing that really is eye opening is his shooting percentage inside 3-10. Check out My NFL Draft Prospect Videos at Youtube User Pages Jmpasq,JPdraftjedi,Jmpasqdraftjedi. www.Draftbreakdown.com

It's clearly passing and setting up other players. As well as settling for quick threes. 'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020

Yeah, a 7'3 PF should not be rebounding like a 6'8 SF. so who will they compare his passing to?
