Hes not manu. Totally different styles. Manu is a driver/scorer, Russell is a facilitator/shooter. Even tho he had a subpar summer league i could see him being the best player from this draft one day. Hes got a certain it factor plus even tho he is skilled in some ways he is the most unpolished of the earlier picks but has the fundamentals to build around.

Really? I think he has the lowest ceiling/highest floor with Okafor. Porzingis with muscle mass, Mudiay with a 3 point shot or Hezonja with a handle is scary.

I say the highest ceiling because he has everything he needs to be great already. Everyone else needs to develop a new part of there game which is unlikely for alot of players, plus he seems like he can be unstoppable in the PnR with his size shooting and vision. No one else seems like the can be that dominant at a particular thing in the draft. I say lowest floor because like i said even tho he is skilled hes very unpolished. The reason the other rookies stood out more is because thier games are more defined than his. He could easily be stagnant and never recognize his game where the other plays have more direction

@potier i think what I'm trying to say is that every other player needs to fix something about their games to reach their full potential. He doesn't tho, ge just needs to improve on the things that he does well to do it. Hes a good shooter/Passer /rebounder/ game manager he just needs to become great at those things and the sky is the limit. I think he has the lowest floor out of the top picks but easily the highest ceiling.

If Kristaps puts everything together, he could be a top 5 player in the league. His potential is through the roof.

Meaning that its one of the easiest stops on the floor for him to get comfortable shots.

Meaning that its "easy" because thats what the D give him and he has to settle.

He isn't Tony Parker or Goran Dragic in the paint. Damn sure isn't Roy or Harden down there.
