Fultz and DSJ should swap grades. Fultz was finding his niche in Orlando but got injured. DSJ is barely in the league anymore.
Lonzo Ball should be F
Markenan a B? lmao that's a joke.
I think it’s premature to say the Jazz are building around Mitchell.
Lonzo Ball is a star, he’s not a superstar but Lonzo is a star and an essential PG when you really look at it. He’s been savagely underrated since being drafted
DSJ getting an C is being very generous. He honestly should get a D+
I think Lonzo should honestly be a C. He didn't live up to the hype of being a Steph Curry with a 40 inch vertical
Markelle was justified by the time of the draft but is so unlucky when he got the chance. I do believe that he can be a late bloomer.
As long as teams keep thinking of Lonzo as the role player, they will lose. Lonzo is the key to any team winning. But if they keep diminishing his role for just scorers, the teams will continue to lose. I think Zo is the real star on every team as he controls the offense and defense, unlike some players who just score.
Where you land determines your destiny. Brandon Ingram was considered a bust in his first 2 1/2 years with the Lakers. The Lakers is not a team for rookies or young players. The Lakers team had Lonzo, Kuzma, Julius Randle, Zubak, Clarkson, Caruso, Josh Hart, Larry Nance Jr. This was a team with a lot of talent but a bad coach in Luke Walton. The Lakers were planning to trade for veterans so many of these players by there 2nd when Lebron came, they knew a trade was in the works. So it doesn't matter if the Lakers had drafted Tatum or Fox or any other rookie, he would have been traded for Anthony Davis.
The sixes were beyond patient with fultz gave him all the time in the world and every chance that they could it was clear that he needed a fresh start also the trade to Orlando landed them maxey and thybulle later down the line
Your grades make no sense
Another trash list.
Tatum is a star not a superstar, superstars perform in the playoffs, he had more turn overs than my 3 year old.
Jonathan Isaac gets a B for me.. obviously his Achilles heel is health but when he was playing he was rounding out into something serious….. He's still pretty young. I hope he can get back to what he was doing and stay healthy.
this list is already trash bc you gave fultz an F even tho he’s like a c
Nah the fultz trade led them to maxey and thybulle. worked out perfectly needs to be a way better grade it's about what it got them, not the player thenself.
Smith Jr is easily an F
What about the 31st pick? Ham n Cheese.
Ion think zo more of a role player than star he's more of a borderline star
