Between the shooting versatility, drives past closeouts, post buckets and body-controlled finishes, the jump hes making looks similar to Keegans last year. Between his 6'6" size, mechanics, shot-making versatility and discipline, it's easy to picture his fit as an off-ball scorer and interchangeable wing.
