This dude is only 19, youngest player in the league and yet his offensive game already looks fukkin POTENT as all hell. He handles the ball better already too. Only thing right now he REALLY REALLY gonna need to focus on is defense, cause Klay eclipses him on on that aspect.

That boy can flat out score... I never understood why Coach Cal had him coming off the bench at Kentucky to instead play the bum ass Harrison twins :smh:. He is going to be a problem. He just needs to add to his frame and work on his handle. He could be waaaayyyyy better than Klay Thompson potentially. He will be a top 5 SG in a couple years.

Harrison twins were like top 5 recruits from high school and starters at arguably the number 1 school in the country and look where they at now.

Booker really surprised me. I think the rest of the year he's getting minutes for further development.

Jit is the truth. Just needs handles, defense, and muscle maturity.

He's already got good handles. He's one of the most efficient players on the pick and roll. He's got decent strength for a skinny 19 year old to but once he adds a little more weight it's a rap. Dudes gonna be way better than klay.

I was vehemently against the Heat drafting him, because I thought he was just a spot up shooter. Turns out like other UK talents(Towns and Davis), we only got to see a fraction of what they can do at college and Cal didn't showcase all of the facets of their games.

Um where are they at now?

I remember the FLOOR for them dudes was supposed to be 7th or 8th man off the bench somewhere. They not even remotely at that level


I'm probably in the minority on this, but I think Klay is just a streaky volume shooter. When that shyt is wet it's wet, but when it's not it's :scust:. The fact the warriors are so good kind of hides how inconsistent that dude is, imagine if klay thompson was the #1 option on a lotto team.
