When all is said and done, he's a mediocre player with a green light and terrible shot selection.
The same excuses being made for him could be made for any player in the country. We have plenty of sample size at this point to know exactly who he is.
He definitely can fill a role on the team, but the Wrubell types who were hoping he'd be the next Jimmer (based off his film of torching Utah valley high school kids) were certainly off the mark.
