    I remember mock drafts in 2013 that had him going number 1 overall. He’s still better that the actual number 1 pick Anthony Bennet that year.

    Man this guy was such an elite prospect coming out of Kansas. Have to wonder what his career would be like right now if he was drafted by anyone but Sacramento.

    This isn't MCW. Would be fine for Morey to give him a shot. Put him in our summer league team

    Those Canadians Bennett and Wiggins did not pan out.

    He can be the Rockets backup SG that actually consistently uses screens like Curry and Thompson to shoot 3s. A decent Gordon replacement. Great fit for the Rockets.

    Because he is not a coach that knows how to manage his players.

    He could definitely provide some halftime entertainment. Tillman is always looking for “bang for his buck”...

    Reality means you have to sort through diamonds in the rough, when you are limited per contract obligations.

    Rockets have a good system and talent to go along, they need depth and guys who can play within the roles they are given.
