Possibly. He is a string bean with little acceleration or explosion to create separation. Shot being inconsistent and his selection being poor is an understatement. He's lanky with decent lateral quickness and has good vision/handle. We'll see if the good outweighs the bad.
LaMelo Ball will be a bust

For every Trae Young there's a Jimmer Fredette and more.

He has negative motor, literally zero try hard/heart in his game.

I wouldn’t say he has no motor. I think his motivation is misguided but he does have a motor.

He will probably be at best a little better than Lonzo

I always like these threads we need more of them so we can bump them and see whether wethe OP or
at the OP
Nah fukk this thread. There's isn't any real credible analysis just a bunch of generalizations. I highly doubt OP even knows much about LaMelo's game.
OP could easily get a job at ESPN with this shtick tho.
Even with credible analysis people are still wrong. All this shyt is is just a bunch of guessing. Who’s your pick to be the steal and bust of this draft?Nah fukk this thread.

I agree with this, and want him nowhere near the Dubs. I hope he's able to get it together and be productive in the NBA, but his funky shot and 25% 3point % are going to need a lot of work. Defensively he needs a lot of guidance. That said, he has things he looks to be very good at so like Tre said, if he lands in the right spot, it could be good. He's going to need shooters tho.....

OP is wrong on this one and is basing his opinion on Melo off of outdated information.
Barring injury he's gonna be one of the best big point guards to come out in a long time. His passing is his best asset IMO. He just needs to get to a team that will hide him on defense and allow him to play his game.

Jimmer was never Trae/Melo-level prospect.
Like Lonzo, it will probably take Melo a couple of seasons to get in a groove just due to his body but he's definitely talented enough to do well in the league.
