lol no one has ever described him as one.

he is strong and skilled but he has lift issues much like paolo banchero. i think he will be a productive but flawed pro that is hard to put other pieces around.
He's def not a player to build around...he will be a less athletic, shorter version of Michael Porter Jr with passing ability.... a solid 3rd option type of player. His type of game doesn't translate well at the next level imo...he'll eventually become a better shooter tho.

That bully ball shyt didn't work against Tiller & Budinga, how tf it's going to work in the NBA where the PFs are taller, longer, and more athletic.

If dudes name was Cameron Jones and he went to Wisconsin we wouldn't be talking this top 5 nonsense

His passing ability was impressive. Rebounding was solid. He hit open 3s. But his first step isn't fast at all, which is why he relies on that bully shyt. He's not athletic, not long, not quick.

Caleb WIlliams has the higher ceiling imo...idgaf that he doesn't shoot 3's like that

I agree conference play will expose him

just comes down to how good he can draw fouls (because he will never be a great finisher) and hit the 3 IMO. i definitely think he is the likeliest to drop in the draft vs preseason expectation.

Even though he’s a year older I agree that you could see a team easily prefer Caleb Wilson over Boozer.

hasn't played yet due to an ankle sprain, supposed to be their starting SF and best NBA prospect
My fault, I was thinking of Niko Bundalo who had a "weird recruitment" and MSU seemingly stop recruiting him. I think y'all recruited him too and backed off... he committed to Washington after never visiting, then ended up at fukking Ole Miss of all places.

Yea same with UConn, he visited them and then word got out right after the visit that UConn was no longer recruiting him lol. He apparently has some issues upstairs, he seems like one of those guys that's gonna bounce from school to school

Yea from what I read, his top 4 was UNC (he said that was his dream school), OSU (he's from Ohio), MSU, & UConn. Then he ends up at Washington then Ole Miss...that's a hell of a fall off. He's played a total of 5 mins this entire season and has not attempted a shot.
