Wake up Babe, new Hoop Intellect Draft Video dropped.
In seriousness, this is the guy I would love at 7. He's got great touch and his shot isn't broken. He has all star upside, and would be a good match with Scoot. The only downside is his passiveness and how that pairs with Shaedon; however, his finishing touch and ability to pnr score is promising.
What are your thoughts on him?

The reasoning for him at 7 is I can’t see him dropping to 14. It’ll be the front offices decision, but I really like the kid
I don’t mind his passiveness.
If he can make reads to Scoot and Shae and just catch and shoot….which are two of his biggest strengths right now alongside his effort on defense, that’ll benefit the team more than him hogging the ball.
We don’t need to draft a first, second, or third option here. That’s for next year with Flagg. For now, we need to find the Nic Batum or the Aaron Gordon or Khris Middleton or whatever.
For me the only question is the shooting numbers. If the 41% from 3 is real he’s a steal at 7. But as the video says, it’s a small sample size and his past numbers aren’t as encouraging. That being said, I’d still be happy with him at 7
