Seriously, I wish him the best of luck, but I have my doubts that he has the maturity to handle the unvarnished criticism that is sure to come his way from people who’ve been around the NBA for 10-15 years and know what it takes to succeed at that level. Best case for him NBA-wise is that a team that doesn’t need help right now (ex. Golden State) uses their 2nd Round pick on him, and sends him to the G-League, to get bigger and stronger, and/or help him develop an outside shot. If he has any future at all at the next level, it’ll be at either the 4 (with a much stronger body) or the 3 (with a much- improved shooting range). Any objective observer can see that he’s at least another 1-3 years away from making an NBA roster, and that it’ll take a lot of hard work on his part between now and then to get there.
