You had to edit to come up with this?

Let's compare him to other point guards...

Seems fair to compare a rookie to ten year vets. However, you said he was an average rookie. That's not accurate:

After being selected No. 8 overall in the 2018 NBA Draft, Sexton went on to appear in all 82 games (72 starts) for the Cavaliers in 2018-19, while averaging 16.7 points, 2.9 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 31.8 minutes per contest. The 6-2 guard ranked in the top five among all NBA rookies in free throw percentage (1st, .839), games played (tied-1st, 82), three-point percentage (2nd, .402), minutes per game (2nd, 31.8), points per game (3rd, 16.7), field goal percentage (4th, .430) and assists per game (5th, 3.0). Sexton became just the third rookie in NBA history to average 16.0 points or more while shooting at least .400 from beyond the arc and .800 from the free throw line, joining Larry Bird (1979-80) and Stephen Curry (2009-10). He also connected on 119 three-pointers, the most ever by a Cavaliers rookie in a single season, and was one of only three rookies to tally at least 1,000 points and 100 triples in 2018-19 (Luka Doncic, Trae Young).

Sexton’s total points (1,371) this past season ranked third among Cavs rookies in franchise history, trailing only Ron Harper (1,874 in 1986-87) and LeBron James (1,654 in 2003-04). He posted the 10th-highest point total by any NBA rookie since 2009-10. His scoring average (16.7) was the fifth-highest ever recorded by a Cavs rookie (Ron Harper-22.9, Austin Carr-21.2, LeBron James-20.9, Kyrie Irving-18.5). Sexton was also the only Cavalier and one of three NBA rookies this season to appear in all 82 games. He became the eighth Cavs rookie to appear in every game and the first since Andre Miller in 1999-2000. In addition, Sexton is the second Cavs rookie to average at least 16.0 points and play in all 82 contests (Ron Harper in 1986-87) and the first NBA rookie to do so since Karl Anthony-Towns in 2015-16.

You can spin it with efficiency ratings that show that he's not as good as past MVPs or All stars, but at least the dude can hit a damn three pointer.
