A long, switchable forward and floor-spacer who knocked down 36% of his threes and took terrific care of the ball. At 23 he's a quality two-way starter — 15.8 points and 6.9 rebounds — though the self-creation and rim pressure are still developing and his perimeter defense graded out below the line this year.
