He don’t have the athleticism you need to be a super all time elite perimeter player but this Barrett is going to be a 24-27 a game scorer imo on efficient numbers. Zion took all the attention but Barrett has one of the best freshman seasons of all time.

I think you're underrating his athleticism.

Plus the dude is big as fukk, he'll damn near be stiff arming dudes to the rim like LeBron by year 3.

I dont see this man failing outside of injury.

I said the athleticism to be an all time great perimeter player type.

I’m talking Mj, Kobe, Dr. J, Bron athleticism. Barrett’s first step isn’t like there’s.

I agree he will be a bully guard tho.

I kinda have a feeling Ja Morant is gonna be a bust or have an underperforming career. 2nd picks have been underwhelming for a decade and running for the most part

Grizz might regret picking Ja over RJ
Grizz need a point guard...RJ aint that

prime Danny Granger. Very good All Star level player, not quite ALL NBA or perennial at least.

What about his game reminds you of harden? :gucci: you can’t be a harden and be “not good at shooting”

He has that step back jumper. Not as constant but I can kind of see it.



Player A: 22.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 45.4 FG%, 30.8 3P%

Player B: 21.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 50.1 FG%, 31.8 3P%

Player A is Barrett — at age 18 at Duke.

Player B is Wade – at age 20-21 at Marquette.


RJ Barrett is NBA draft godsend Knicks fans didn’t want: Shades of Wade

There should be more spacing in Fisdale's offense so maybe he will get better looks.. Might even get a triple double this season.

My guy has never met a shot he didn’t like.

I think he will have 20ppg scoring seasons, but he will be painfully inefficient
