The reality is that there are 60 primary/secondary ball handler/scorer jobs in the NBA.

There are 120 3 and D rotation player jobs.

The crossover between those two is maybe 10 guys. Far easier to fit in the second category than the first.

He's not ready and not close. Needs to put on some muscle weight especially

Physically. Both those guys are weaklings and do fine

He’s closer to the NBA than any BYU player since Jimmer (sans Egor)

No chance. NBA teams prefer to have these yet-to-physically-mature prospects in their system. This is the year for Kanon

Getting one-and-dones is lots of fun, but doing so has downsides, and less

Yeah, I wasn't trying to say that was his mentality.

I think the game will come to him. Wait for the Big 12. He'll get plenty of

Only 8 out of 30 projected picks in this mock draft will be 20 or older

That's a lot of assumptions on your part

Also, let’s give it a few more games at least. He just finished high school.

How do you know that he is focusing solely on the NBA? How do you know he isn’t

I've said since the first scrimmage that he looks lost. Has some nice physical

i would pay big money for you to play him 1:1

If he were my son, I’d let him mature a bit before trying the NBA. In interview,

He needs another 15lbs of weight and he needs to understand defense. He'll get there

He’s still a projected first round pick according to Wasserman
