As I went back through Ohio St game, i think Russell's passing skills are overhyped but his shooting/scoring ability is undervalued. He is kind of like the inverse of Steph in that regard. Where I remember I knew that Steph would have no prob being a PG in the NBA and people doubted his passing.
With Russell, i hear every analyst call him this great visionary passer like he is the next Cousy, magic, Stockton and Paul all in one. In reality he is an above average passer and has good vision but his decision making is still questionable. He missed some open shooters and is too much of a Ball stopper at times. He can def improve on those things, it's not like he doesn't see the open guys, he just has so much confidence in himself he thinks he can make an even Better play.
At the same time I don't think peoplr realize how good of a shooter he is, kind of like Harden in that regard. When Russell gets going he will pull up while going full speed off the dribble and drain it in a defenders face. Pretty much unstoppable and he can make them from anywhere, any spot around the arc + mid range. I think he prefers the right side of the court tho a bit.
So ya, i think he will prob lead all rookies in scoring next year but I doubt he is gonna be a triple double threat any time soon or even double double for now
