Listening to the draft special on nbatv now theyre saying Exum doesnt have great vision at all for a pg he misses alot of open men and turns it over alot
So he has those two negatives his shot is half broke and hes not overly athletic what is so special about this guy?
Sounds lke his age and the mysteriousness of him has people overrating him
The hype is that even if he can't play PG, he has the handle to be a combo guard that can run your offense. The last couple years most of the SG prospects coming into the league are around 6'3" and can barely dribble, so when one comes along at 6'6" that has a handle and tells you he wants to be a PG people take notice.
He's not an explosive leaper, but he is athletic, laterally he was among the best tested at the combine. Also, I believe he's the 3rd youngest prospect in the draft. I think his first year is going to be awful to be honest, but he's so young that any team taking him should have patience. Chad Ford made a great point, he said last year everyone was saying Giannis wouldn't come over when he was drafted and he only looked good cause he was playing against bums, where as the Bucks felt the only way for him to improve and realize his potential was to bring him over immediately.
