boy am I glad the mavericks never traded for capela because lively is already a 9 points, 8 rebounds, 1.5 blocks in his rookie season. in year 2 or 3 when he is a bit stronger and more familiar with the nba game get is easily going to be a double double machine with the lobs he will catch from luka and irving. he doesn’t really need to have an offensive game to provide offensive production, lobs and put backs will be his bread and butter if he develops any sort of offensive moves or mid range game it can only be a plus.
To me his ceiling is a Myles turner type player but with less shooting more lobs, similar defense, and more passing
Which is amazing
