    The stats don't come from the person who makes the video so whether he uses examples that are relevant or not the stat is still valid. If anything you should do the opposite of what you say, ignore the clips and focus on the stats.

    I love the potential but I think the reason we aren't seeing him as a big time prospect is he seems to either be catch and shoot or straight line drive to the rim. Based on the tape and his numbers he doesn't seem to have a lot of other moves to his game. Still I'm all on board with bringing in...

    Looks like she has 3 so a long term piece to build with.

    I think if he hadn't had to play out of position at T this year Adams would probably be firmly in the 2nd round discussion and maybe might still go there. He was a monster at G as a junior but like that twitter thread says maybe having that experience at T will pay off for him in the long run.

    For real. And obviously the original efficiency numbers in the first prospect video are accurate and he is killer as a PnR scorer.

    The more I see the more I believe this is not a guy that you put in the corner as a floor spacer and cutter. Skilled and high IQ guy with decent size and athleticism already who could definitely benefit from a top tier workout program.

    I disagree with this. He's obviously not a post up guy but he was 97th percentile in scoring efficiency as a PnR ball handler and his assist rate is similar to Coleman with less turnovers. He is absolutely not going to be the primary ball handler like Domask turned into or a first scoring option...
