I'm tired of seeing this narrative in every thread when the numbers clearly show that isn't true. So let's speak on the numbers saying that Wiggins actually did create baskets for himself at the college level.

Wiggins was assisted on 45.9% of his shots at the rim, 20.8% of his 2PT jumpers, and 76.7% of his 3PT jumpers

Parker was assisted on 54.3% of his shots at the rim, 46.3% of his 2PT jumpers, and 92.1% of his 3PT jumpers.

Jabari is a phenomenal talent. But I'm tired of seeing cats use weak ass excuses to prop him up and try to shyt on Wiggins. It is possible to think both prospects will do well.

Yeah, I brought up his assisted shot percentage during the season and people weren't trying to hear it.

His game is a lot more suited for the NBA than it is college.

Agreed plus there was absolute horrible spacing on this KU team. I distinctly remember a play against TCU where Wiggins was isolated on the right and then a big came over to clog up his way to the lane. I want to say he made a step back but it was that type of play that irritated me all year long. He'll be a lot better with a legit NBA point guard.

Put it this way: if all his attributes were rated on 2k15 with absolute realistic precision....

I'd have hit the turbo button a lot, because I wouldn't wanna dribble around anyone and definitely not through traffic.

I'd dunk everything, even tho I know I'd get blocked sometimes, because my freak'um skills around the cup are wack.

I wouldn't shoot jumpers....ever.

But he'll be going to Cleveland or Milwaukee which has neither

Never understood this shyt. Bill Self prides his offense on moving the ball. You couldn't make me believe for a second a physically gifted kid like him couldn't create his own shot. shyt just sounds stupid.

:blessed::blessed::blessed:. Love when nikkas actually start doing research instead of just listening to false, played out narratives. :salute:

That first step will make a believer out of people, just wait. If he can master the one/two dribble pullup, he can go a long way. With good spacing he should be able to blow past people on the first dribble like Kobe or Melo.

He can create his own shot but due to his weak handle it limits him alot. Dont care what those numbers say Jabari can score many more ways than Wiggins.

Wiggins handle is trash at the moment and cant get a good shot off whenever he wants

But due to Jabari horrible defense and the fact Wiggins athleticism gives him a higher ceiling I can see why Wiggins would be taken first
