His shot form also isn't bad, I feel confident that he'll get better. And besides just about no one played or shot well on that G-League team. Buzelis was seen as a super skilled wing that could shoot and pass and he didn't show much of that at all. The piss poor Ignite coaching and infrastructure likely made them both look worse than they are.

I like his game and I think if he can figure out his shooting out a bit he's a really good get for us. I could see the front office looking at that game winner over brandon miller on all star weekend and thinking what it could be like with him playing next to b-milly.

He was my favorite at the start simply due to the MB connection but I do think he's ended up under the radar compared to his teammates.

I really like the Odom/Wagner comp there and like the fit on the wing

He's one of a handful of guys I'm perfectly fine with drafting

You can say the same thing about Castle.

Which part? Not that the poor coaching made him look worse?

If your point is he can do other stuff like Holland, I favor Holland because he seems to be at least a couple inches taller and heavier.

I'm fine with Holland just not my first choice.

I think the Hornets will get a better feel for these prospects once they have their individual workouts. Holland has all the tools to be great, it's about improving that jumpshot. He does that then his game will take off to another level.

Honestly my first option has always been trade back for an established starter and a pick swap.


I like Keyshawn George from Miami as a big sg/PG hybrid who can be a secondary facilitator when LaMelo is out. He lacks explosion, but the 3pt shot is already there.


What's your thoughts on Keyshawn George as a trade back option?

I'd prefer not to draft someone that was essentially a role player on a horrid Miami team. He has some physical tools but I'd pass.

We would also be getting an established player back + George, but I get your point.

You can tell by this photo, its at least 7 inches
