Was a standout last year on the clippers then gained 20+ pounds in the summer and started the season off terrible. He couldn't even dunk early on, reminded me of McGrady last season. He did loose the weight recently and had a few good games then lost his confidence. And also the play of butler has been great for the clippers which has put him on the bench and kept his mins in check. Just been a very bad year for him. When he is in shape he is a D Wilkins lite, the human highlight version. Can dunk with the best of them. But that's the concern, if he isn't in shape he looses all his athletic ability that gives him his edge.
