This Duren leap was unexpected to me. Playing hard every night. He’s great at finishing around rim with finesse or power. If he continues to shot 80% from line he will probably avg 20 ppg this year. Its very realistic that he will be able to add a mid range jumpshot to his game soon. His shot mechanics have always looked good

Not even sure who I would compare him to. Maybe a young chris webber :lupe:

Not surprised at all with the jalen duren leap. I defended him last year.

One of the youngest players in the league. Got a good handle, underrated passer, soft touch around the rim. Great hands.

He shoots about 70 percent from the FT line so I knew he could get a mid range jumper. He had a nice hesi pull up mid range jumper last night

That’s why it killed me when everybody was calling him a bust a year or two ago. The nikka was 20 and still drawing with crayons and nikkas was acting like he was a finished product.

Remember when people in the media were debating Green or Cunningham at #1. Green would have been such a disaster.
Damn near 40 years later and the media still chasing that Jordan archetype. A sg with a dunk highlight package will get the ultimate push, all other shyt be damn. They can't help themselves :manny:
