89. "Stubbornly think he can be a defensive-minded backup PG." In response to In response to 33
Yes, he's undersized, and yes, he's not a scorer... but he's got real NBA speed, elite IQ, great vision/creation for others, and, even at his height, I think his ridiculous defense would translate. Lazy comparison would be something like Diet Coke Patrick Beverley.
Normally, he's an end-of-second flier, but there are just *so* few guys I think are capable of making an impact in any capacity next year in this class-- and Shead has the tools to do that. I'd draft him early second if I was a contender (imagine if Thibs got him at 38, lol).
