Lack of size, length, willingness to shoot seems like to much of red flags for him.
A lot of these analysts are just so hung up on the 3 that they can't see beyond it. This literally after one of the best midrange shooters currently, and one who is a small guard, led his team to a title.
Plus it's not as if Flemings is terrible at shooting the 3. In fact this guy says he will be a good regular season player and if he can change the pull up 2 to a pull up 3 then we're talking. What?? Those are two different shots and the pull up 2 in many ways is still much more difficult for defenses to plan for and to defend, especially as you go deeper into the playoffs. Harden for all his dribbling brilliance never had confidence in a drive hard, stop and pull up for the 2, which is why he struggled as his team went deeper into the playoffs.
But again, many teams seem down on him. So maybe they're all seeing something in the individual workouts that we are not privy too. Let's see how low he drops and what sort of impact he eventually has in the league. IMO if he drops below 10 some team is going to get a real steal in terms of getting a player who clearly belongs a tier above where he will get drafted.
