I promise this isn’t sour grapes, but I really don’t understand how Ballo is the top rated transfer. I think he’s really good, but to me he is a really poor man’s Kofi. The times I’ve watched him his hands have been suspect and he just seems a little clumsy and uncoordinated, and also doesn’t process things quickly and isn’t a great passer. And he clogs up driving lanes. The LaTulip film room on Boswell (if you aren’t a premium subscriber on 247, highly recommend) just reinforced that to me…Ballo just really limits the style that you can play in, much Kofi. Now Kofi was so efficient and physically dominant it was worth playing that 4 out O/ drop D style. But even if Ballo is 75% of Kofi (and I doubt that), not sure the juice is worth the squeeze.
But if you are completely opposed to spacing, 3 pointers and pretty much the entire modern basketball ecosystem, probably a great fit.
