When Emoni was drafted in the second round , there were people calling him the steal of the draft. But the little we have seen from Emoni makes me belive att best he is a serviceable starter in like 5-6 years.
A serviceable starter for 5-6 years is a very respectable career for a 2nd rounder. Or even 1st rounder
Tbf, it looks like OP said he’d be an ok starter IN 5-6 years, rather than FOR 5-6 years.
Cam Whitmore was seen as the steal of the draft, was the Summer League MVP, and isn’t playing right now. These guys sometimes take time. If they were sure thing NBA ready at 19 they would have been drafted much, much higher up.
It’s weird to say but yeah. I saw way too many optimistic comments when he was drafted on here and on Youtube. I know it’s only a second round pick but bro use that pick on someone that doesn’t have god awful measurements + baggage
