Playmaker. Leader. Skilled shooter, ball handler, passer. High intensity, like Kobe. Importantly, Suggs has focused solely on basketball for just 1 year of his life. He was a star quarterback in high school. Massive potential here. And the floor is incredibly high -- Suggs is BUST PROOF.
Somebody mentioned how short his arms are and now I can’t unsee it. He lacks ideal length for somebody who is 6’4. Wonder what magic Silas could do with this kid tho.
Man I can’t decide again. Even when Cade was in play I couldn’t decide. Everytime I watch or read something about one of these guys they move to the top of my list.
kpj is gonna be a rocket for a long time, kpj like most young players in the aau look up to james harden
He's faster than Roy. But yes the basketball IQ is similar. People will be kicking themselves for drafting for potential instead of this guy in the future. Winners win. This guy has that 'it' factor that CP3, Battier, Gordon Hayward came out of college with. He's a guaranteed self-starter, first person in the gym, winning culture contributor. And he has an underrated ceiling to boot.
So he never liked bball grind and just went in cuz he was good at it and gonna get paid a lot? We've seen guys like that before.... Kobe was in love with bball ever since he was a kid being coached by his dad. By the time he reached the NBA as a high schooler he had more bball years under his belt than some vets.
Suggs has game, but his upside depends on how he develops as an outside shooter. If his shot improves he could be one of the best 5 PG's in the league.
