He gets abused on the perimeter (see Lipscomb game film) but doesn’t have much of a vertical or enough length to provide rim protection as a 5. He’ll be great offensively wherever he plays, but his defense is a huge question mark.
Well, that's kind of why I'm asking. I have very little interest in him as a forward, for more than one reason. Just curious if part of the appeal might be the "stretch 5" we've been talking about. If he's not that, I really don't get the appeal...for any team, really, but especially not for the Mavs.
