Let’s discuss.

Draft range? Team’s he fits?

Defense? Can he defend in space against wings? Will he be targeted? How is his weak-side rim protection?

Offense, is his 3 ball going to be legit?

Who is better as a 4/5, him or Holmes?

Terrence Jones 2.0

Stretch pf who can maybe play small ball 5 with a decent 3pt shot.

He should/will definitely be drafted over Holmes.

Just going by the stats, seems to be a good shooter who's an underrated source of stocks.

Hard to judge Ignite players but I'm impressed by the stat line.

He should go top 5 imo.. Tyler's game needs polish but once he learns NBA skills and has NBA training, he looks like a starting PF for anyteam in the league. Good form on his J, can leap, seems to have good hands and will probably measure in the 6'11 in shoes range imo. Reminds me of Kuzma with slightly better defensive potential

Seems to profile almost identically to Jabari Smith to me.

I read he could have rim protection ability and I read that he plays no defense at all. Who is the guy on defense in the NBA?

He said he models his game after Jabari Smith, Kyle Kuzma, Michael Porter Jr. So yeah...jump shots and no defense at all.

3 plays against the Windy City Bulls.

First play: His job is to hedge, contain the drive, and get back. Smith gets blown by.

Second play: In transition, provides zero resistance defending the drive. The guy runs right past Smith.

Third play: Hits jumpshot then leaves his man open a few seconds later because he's confused about the rotations.

brutal in space but solid down low. Needs a lot of work on that end imo but that seems to be the case with all of these stretch 4s coming into the league. Hell, half of them are still bad years into their NBA careers. If he was a good defender he would be in the lottery discussion but he's not

absolutely awful defender, but he's starting from 0 so there may be something there for the right coach.. his motor is pretty high
