reminds me of Kenneth faried,

He’s got a nice middie but his finishes around the rim are kinda ugly. At his height not sure if it translates.

One thing that may save him is he’s a pretty beefy guy so maybe he can bully ball on drives.

Floor Lu Dort
Ceiling Jalen Brunson

Projection
Thornton’s college arc and playing style draw natural comparisons to Jalen Brunson, who was a four-year, undersized guard and needed multiple years in the NBA before surprisingly developing into an All-NBA talent. That’d be a best-case scenario for Thornton, who’s more likely to have a long career as a reserve or depth option. He’s bigger than Tyus and Tre Jones, but like the brothers out of Duke, Thornton could be a steady backup guard whom coaches feel comfortable leading the second-unit offense. Thornton is also a few inches shorter than Lu Dort but just as strong and could be an annoying 3-and-D player for years if he focuses on being a wing at the next level.
