He doesn’t look that out of shape to me, just naturally robust. Sort of like Lowry or a young Raymond Felton. But I wouldn’t mind if he got shredded as hell, his game could only benefit
He is very good, and is only 20 - his body type is not a lean one but a muscular one, look at his shoulders and arms - the guy is a beast....he will be able to take on contact and finish. DD
He can be as fat or as skinny or as lean or as thick as he wants to be.... ... as long as he has the footspeed to matchup with NBA guards. That's the open question for me.
Lots of guys are not quick, CP3 is not quick.....Sam Cassell was not quick, James Harden is not quick........it is about angles and anticipation. DD
That is odd, at this time of the year elite players usually slim down tremendously to avoid weight on their joints and then put weight back on slowly once camp starts. Even Harden in Summer of 2020 had pics of him slimmed down significantly, so much so that people assumed it was due to Covid, but it is part of their training. Maybe hes just built differently like Lowry or PJ like others mentioned.
