We have way more panache than them......We really really do.....................

Ty Rogers 6'6 200lbs
HS SR season 15 ppg 14 rbg 7 apg
I think he can play the four if needed
Probably a stretch to put him at PG but he handles and passes the ball well

By comparison

RJ Melendez 6'7" 190
HS SR season 24 ppg 6 rbg
Played SF last year

Luke Goode 6'6" 180
HS SR season 19 ppg 8 rbg 5 apg
Played SF last year

Big question with Rodgers is what level of scorer can he be in college, he should definitely be a contributor barring any non-basketball reason (injury etc.) but hopefully he will be a guy who can score on volume at the college level

I wouldn’t ever say he’s going to be a volume scorer….at least not consistently. I think the easiest way to explain him is a bigger Monte(yes this is selling his offensive game short). He has a higher ceiling than Monte and is more well rounded offensively.

taller more athletic Jordan Goodwin?

He’s essentially a 4 that will bring the ball up occasionally….(ex: see Draymond). Will probably play some at the 3 too.
Does that mean he isn’t quick enough to guard 1-3?

Seven fist or second all defensive team selections and one DPOY tells me that Draymond was quick enough to guard 1-3 despite being a 4. Just because 10 years ago a coach said he defines a player's position by what he can defend doesn't mean he can't play anywhere else.

I think the question is reasonable. It really has nothing to do with Green. Is Ty going to be able to guard guards? Especially quicker ones. We get it. Draymond Green could. That doesn't answer the question about Rodgers.
