The first time I saw him , Magic Johnson came to mind . Magic especially in college was no great shooter . Magic always had the genius BB IQ. Jackson doesn’t but all that means is he needs to study harder to get the same results 
The way he sees the floor and delivers passes sometimes blindly sometimes to spots where  that player will be is a God given gift that no coach can teach only encourage. 
Because he was such a hybrid and freakish athlete he lacks only in the confidence / knowledge to be that guy . 
Plus his energy on the defensive end  changes the intensity to a visible level 
Along time ago when I was being taught the game . I asked my mentor  if the guy playing the lead guard needs to be a great shooter. He told no but he has to shoot well enough that someone needs to play him . 
Andre could be a great NBA player if he learns the position and has confidence in being the lead guard and his shot improves a tad . Both are doable if he is willing to put in the work . 
Just because for the next level he is a WIP doesn’t mean the finished product won’t be just as special.
