Last 4 games averaging 16 pts, 8.5 reb, 1 ast, and 1.5 stls a game. Has played great on-ball defense as well during the stretch although he still struggles a little with ball watching when defending off the ball that leads to his man getting open. 

He’s no longer thinking so much. He’s doing more reacting which has made him look much smoother on the court. Shooting 53% from floor and 52% from 3 during the stretch. Shot looks good. 

If he keeps up his play during conference play and averages something like 14 and 6 a game the rest of the season how far can he rise in the draft projections?

i think his shooting ability, size and athleticism are too hard for any team in the lottery pick to overlook.  i don’t think he’ll surpass the likes of stanley johnson, d’angelo russell or kevin looney (unless an injury happens) but i think him or mario herzonja are in a close race for next wing off the board. 

mid-late lottery would be my bet.  if the bulls’ pick (from the kings’) stays in that late lotto could easily see them taking the gamble.

If he keeps playing the way he has the past few games, I can’t see him going lower than 7th. I think one big question with who he goes to is if teams see him as more of a 2 or 3 in the league. For instance, a team like Indiana would love to get him as a future secondary scorer next to Paul George but would need him to play the 2. Whereas, a team like Detroit would want him to play the 3 so they could still play KCP alongside him.

 I think he can start at the 2, but might have to switch to the 3 as he gets older. The long arms could really help on D if he can swing the 2.

 Sixers need him. Talented wing, it was just a matter of time before he broke out. GM’s will fall in love with his workouts, wingspan, size, etc.. Hes top 10
