Do you think he will pull defenders away from his teammates in the NBA? Do

you think he is ready to defend NBA players? Last 4 games he is shooting 38% and 29% from 3. Will that excite the NBA? He may know what he is doing, but can he do it at an NBA level? For his age, yeah. Probably great for his age at 16 but I doubt he would have been drafted then. His stats in his pro league were not sensational. I could see him needing another year. Will see how he progresses against ACC competition. ** Edited by nkhooch at 12/7/2025, 2:02:40 AM ** Edited by nkhooch at 12/7/2025, 2:12:03 AM ** Edited by nkhooch at 12/7/2025, 2:48:52 AM

Nearly certainly. He is playing very well. He doesn't turn the ball over.

I think the commenters below are overstating his intangibles
nkhooch • 12/07/25 01:37 AM ET
Agree and well said. However I do think he is an elite passer.

Isn't there a stat for that? +/- or some such? Wouldn't a comparison of

Afraid he will be gone **

Much of his value doesn't show up in the boxscore......

He won’t draw that attention in NBA. **
uber hokie • 12/08/25 09:51 PM ET
He is a first round draft pick and will be gone**

Yep. Scoring a bunch of points isn’t what the NBA scouts are looking for
