I can see where you might get this but I see it another way. I see an extremely hard-nosed player who just keep coming. Nothing has ever been handed to him. He's turning himself into a fantastic contributor and his role and coaching have a lot to do with it. He's a guard version Dwight Powell and if he keeps improving he will force his way into the starting lineup, just like Powell did. I don't know where Brunson's ceiling is but it wouldn't shock me for him to have a Van Vleet -type career trajectory.
