I don't think so because he won't be asked to do as much. A lot more supporting cast around him.
That would be good if he could play to his strengths, but what are his strengths on the basketball court? He is long, tall, and pretty athletic, but has not progressed skill wise in three years. His offensive game scoring-wise certainly doesn't translate to the next level. He gets rebounding numbers because of his height advantage, but gets pushed around any time he faces a big man with a pulse. How is a 6'8 post who thinks he's a 3 going to help you next year at all?
ETA: He has all the potential in the world, but kids who have flat-lined like he has in HS certainly make me skeptical.

J3's freshman season will be very similar to Devonta Pollard's imo. He will struggle mightily.
You may be right, but Pollard's terrible year has just as much, if not more to do with his personality as his raw skill set. The kid is literally the shyest kid I have ever seen in an interview, and I have seen a shite-ton of recruits get interviewed. ESPN recruiting analysts have said he's a terriffic kid, but probably the shyest kid they had ever talked with. It's understandable given the shite he has been through growing up. Pollard isn't ready for the big stage yet.

Hopefully Wiggins goes to FSU.
Did I just say that?

I'm not saying he will ever reach this level, and certainly not in his freshman year, but didn't you just sort of describe Bowers?
