My comp was Jimmy Butler and a high end Shai if he really starts cooking.

I don't know if he'll ever be as smooth as Shai, but he might be if he develops that J.

Now, seeing him grow over the last few years into what he's becoming, I think a D Rose/better Tyreke Evans/Jimmy Butler comp isn't insane. But he's pretty unique.

I feel very "HuskyWarrior611" in that I think I've had him nailed since junior in HS. I thought he was a top 10 player in his class when he was still in the 20-30s when he committed. I thought he was a lotto pick before he started flashing his high level offensive skills that people were worried about. He's just so strong and smooth and a smart player.

We’ve been on this boat for awhile. I’ve seen his jumper look good the few times he went up confident and aggressive as a 3 level scorer.

It’s starting to seem more and more likely he can fall into that Shai/Cade mold of high scoring jumbo guards. Don’t think he’ll be the absolutely elite playmaker Cade is but still a great decision maker like Shai. Hes only freaking 20 right now doing what he’s doing.

It’s crazy to think he may actually outplay Fox to be the 2nd star. Couldn’t be more proud of a former player and he deserves all the praise he’s getting right now.
