His vision/passing and defense I love a ton for the spurs and his shot doesn’t look too bad?
Does anyone know about Kyshawn George? what did you guys think about him?
Miami's Kyshawn George is one of this class's more unlikely stories, bringing dynamic shooting, two-way instincts and guard skills that increasingly intrigue NBA teams. George went from standing 5-11 upon leaving his home country of Switzerland in 2019 to now scratching 6-9. pic.twitter.com/LQqoeRfi4u

I have not watched one second of Miami basketball. I am not captain draft/college bball though
Hmm…not seeing his name at all in any mocks right now, but its still really early. Kinda reminds me of Anthony Black, maybe?
Lots yet to happen, but as of now, he looks like someone who could be had in the 2nd round.
For those who aren’t following the draft process closely kyshawn George may seem like a random player to consider with a top ten pic
But there are some extremely intriguing aspects to his game that could make him a super swing for the fences high upside selection. Right now him being available with a second round pick has a small chance of likelihood, and if he’s there he would be a no-brainer.
But I have a feeling he’s going to be someone who explodes up mock drafts towards the end of the year, he already is starting to, and really blows up when he gets a chance to spend time showing off in front of scouts
He’s a late bloomer Who really only came into his game, and frame, recently. From what I remember when he came stateside as a 16-year-old he was something like 5’9 and a point guard with very little interest from colleges and ended up being a three star recruit.
4 years later and he’s a 6’9 jumbo guard with incredibly intriguing blend of passing, size, and skill. Factored in with a really good looking Jump shot and there’s a reason why he’s gone from someone that most analyst and draft heads didn’t even have in their top 100, to showing up in a lot of lottery. Mocks despite the pedestrian stats.
He’s only recently started getting solid minutes at Miami and his numbers have blown up as a result. I would still need to see him continue this trend throughout the rest of the year before I would be comfortable with the Spurs drafting him with the raptors pick.
But there are some flashes to his game that are just unbelievably tantalizing with some of the things he can do at his height
The question is, is his recent play small sample size theater, or has he simply been held back in Miami and does now showing the player he really is. If it’s the latter, he will probably be worth a top 10 pick by the end of the year
