Wonder if he got a shot at MIP?

Weaver compared him to a bigger Dragic when they drafted him. Definitely seeing it now

What happened to this guy? He went from zero to hero almost overnight after years of struggling.

The power of confidence. Mental gotta be right to be highly successful in damn near anything, especially sports. He got out his own head and instantly he was a hooper again. Now what was the catalyst that made the switch go to "on" upstairs, who knows. But I'm glad it did.

He hit rock bottom and stopped letting missed get to him

Also he’s been COOKING mid range. Opens his three up after seeing shots drop. Plus with Cade out someone had to step up and be a lead guard. Ivey not that yet might never be that. Cory Jo is either decent or a sabotage. Killian finally becoming a good player. 11-7-4 on 42/40 splits last like 14 games. Around the same as a starter last 17 games.

Duran is honestly a Drummond clone. But he’s definitely more mature. Higher bball IQ at young age. Could lead NBA in rebound as a rookie if he gets the minutes. And his shot mechanics look pretty smooth.

He actually looks like he has some legit defensive awareness and not any "doing too much" in his game. And he still got some filling out to do as much as he's already a manchild. The nikka could be scary in a few years.
