Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted January 20, 2018 I just don't really know how to project him because of how different that game was from an nba game. And how differently he plays from historical prospects. Is he going to be a hall of famer? Or is a typical nba defender going to be able to shut him down? How does Tavarius Shine compare to Jonathan Simmons defensively? I have utmost confidence that he has all the tools necessary to be an above average nba passer. I have no idea what he is in the nba.

Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted January 20, 2018 Contrary to most on the board, Young scares me. I think he could end up a sixth man as much as he could end up an all star. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has a very quick release and while not a explosive athlete, he's very quick. His passing is a thing to watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, he’s been scoring a lot of points, but he’s shot in the 30-39% range in five out of his last seven games. That’s with a very high usage rate. Additionally, his turnovers have also been through the roof lately. Plus, from what I see, he’s going to struggle defensively in the pros. For those who are curious, here’s his game log for the year: https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Trae-Young/GameLogs/88934 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be afraid to draft him without seeing him in a pickup game or something like that. you need to get him into a controlled setting to better evaluate his outlier status. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
