That’s actually what most NBA scouts wish he did more of. He took jumpers from around the perimeter, and played great D; just like everybody expect Davis to do. He also developed that 18 foot jumper remarkably fast over the span of one college season. In the beginning of the year he couldn’t hit it, towards the end he was draining it so consistently it was no longer an option to leave him open anywhere inside of the 3-point line.

Davis and Gordon alone is a good core to start with.

He has to do it on both ends of the floor and lift the franchise. Anyone think Mutombo would have been worth #1 overall?

He has little to no post moves and I doubt he can bang with NBA bigs on a every game basis. I see Marcus Camby as his best comparison and a guy like Stromile Swift as his bust comparison.

Having Camby as your “bust” worst case scenario… Camby won a DPOY!

BTW who knew Utah was the Beehive State? Can we trade the Hornet’s logo for the Jazz back please.

Great shot blocker that has work to do on the offensive end but lots of potential.
