2768424, Catch-and-shoot 3-and-D role player. Nothing more.

I've seen some Desmond Bane comparisons, but seeing as how very few people saw Bane exploding the way he did coming out of college, I'm equally skeptical about Agbaji having real upside like that. He's great on the catch-and-shoot, and he's a good switchable wing defender. But I don't like his pull-up game, I don't like his passing, I don't really like his handle. And he's a four-year college player. Hard to see as much upside there.

So I really like him in the 20s, going to a contender, being a good bench 3-and-D guy, coming into a winning atmosphere. If he goes closer to the end of the lottery, I don't like the value as much. Would rather teams like that take a stab on some of the higher upside, more versatile options. But Agbaji does strike me as a guy who'll be a bench dude/start for bad teams for a while in the NBA.
