He's a comparable if not better shooter, and he'd be amazing in transition with Coop. Obviously he needs to add a little strength. He could tighten up the handle too, but neither guy projects as a primary on ball creator.
Carr feels like the exact kind of guy Masai would draft, even if it's a little before where the consensus has him mocked.
Burries has real guard skills. Way better handles. Making him even more a threat in transition than Carr and even offering some half court creation. Burries actually was a good defender in college. Carr's size and athleticism never translated to defensive impact. Struggled against smaller guards and in the pick and roll.
