I am a huge Obi fan, but do not forget 40% of his baskets come on dunks. He will surpass the one year dunk record. For Obi to be first round draft material he must develop his outside shot. I am guessing, but 95% of his baskets have been from five feet and in. He had five total dunks against the four Top 25 teams.
If Obi wants to go to the G League, he can go anytime. If attending school is okay for him, and he wants the big bucks of a first round choice and guaranteed roster spot, he will be here next year, and until he gets a consistent outside shot and improves his rebounding.
I am sure the scouts are all over him, but are tempered by the fact he is doing his act against mediocre competition.
