P.S. Low key, I think the Pelicans KILLED it in this draft. Hield is risky
I disagree, Hield is one of the safest picks you can make he's too good of a shooter to bust he'll be in the league for a decade off shooting ability alone.
He's bar none the best shooter in the draft, dude shot 46% from three in college. Dude was a problem running off screens, setting flare screens and popping out, as a trailer or ball handler in transition, spot ups, isolation. He has more range than a lot of NBA guys. His work ethic getting better every year and the poverty he grew up in the Bahamas makes dude special.
He's an underrated man defender, great effort and aggressive defensive stance. He gets compared to JJ Redikk and Jodie Meeks. But he's way more physically gifted 6'9 wingspan, 6'5 with a great frame, ran track growing up, 40 inch vertical. He's a crafty ball handler and finisher at the basket. I think he's a future All-Star. He's like a Brandon Roy/Ben Gordon to me.
