I’d advise people who have no idea about scouting read Sam vec reports on the athletic , jhs was mocked routinely 13-17. Considering both bufkin n Wallace were off the board he was the correct choice ( as well as Hawkins lively n dick ,2 shooters n roll man big, heck even jet Howard a shooter was off).
Cam whitnore makes very little sense here.
Jhs strengths : size , defence , wingspan , pnr play with a big , great touch solid ft % good pull up game ( outright very elite in midrange ), relative nba ready body with his build so can defend at nba lvl soon ( I watched him strip Cade twice on the rico Haynes run shit) . He literally is the type of player this current team could use . Is only pivk Wallace over him but that’s purely for defence and to be playable early .
Weakness: turnovers, catch n shoot % . Rim pressure ( but had bad spacing in college seemed better in summer league there).His defensive upside is big and imo important considering reaves. He was also BPA imo outsude cam whit who doesn’t fit here n dropped for other concerns thst Miami n gsw passed on for guys that were projecting near 2nd rounders talent but great fit.
So we got the fit n talent ( mostly ). I’m
Not saying he’s a sure fire pick but there was no one realistically better. I just hope he’s not injured or whatever , he’s also a one n done and playing pg . I imagine if it pans out he’s very useful for us by just next year even.
ALSO . Go fuckibg look how the rookies are playing outside of Wemby or lively? Most of the rookies picked much earlier also strugggled in pre season . The ones doing better tend to be older . But considering trsde potential I’d rather the better asset.
