He's not quite dominant yet but his skill set is just unreal.



I mean I can see how people say this because hes not this prolific shooter that takes over a game like steph curry. Hes not a physically dominant post man a la Anthony Davis. Its just kind of ho hum he got a double double...again....20 and 10...again...but he makes it so consistent game after game that this thread being made literally after every game is getting ridiculous.

For the record, I completely disagree with the OP. He is absolutely elite. No one in basketball possesses a skill set like his. I'm not ready to put him up there with great freshmen like Durant, Melo, and Davis just yet.

He’s a great talent. A 6’10” point forward. At the very least in the NBA he’s going to be a rich man’s Lamar Odom.

Well stated, he doesn't appear to be dominant and take over games when you're watching but the stats are there.

Honestly, there's been several times when a player on the other team stood out to me more but I'm no nba scout nor nba fan licking my chops at his potential. I am simply a college basketball fan.
