My hope would be that Wagler goes to the Hawks and Mavs get Burries/Flemings. I know I’m on an island with this opinion but I just don’t see Wagler as anything special. A 2/3 off-ball player with no way to beat an NBA player off the dribble. I can’t get there with the Luka/Hali comparisons. I just think he’s too reliant on the step back because he can’t get by anybody, even at the college level.
Let's assume Wagler doesn't pan out as a starter level guard. He still has an elite skillset in just shooting. Albeit off the bench, players have had a long pro career without any handles and just being able to hit the 3 ball, and this guy will have better handles than those types of players.
So his floor just like Burries is still very high. Although I like Flemings more than Burries if both are available, Flemings floor is a bit lower than both Burries and Wagler because as others have said he has only one defined role, and if he doesn't pan out there, we don't know what else he can be used as.
