He is the kind of long and athletic wing that is an ideal fit in the modern NBA. But as you pointed out. Only on paper. Impact metrics suggest that he is below average on defense. His shooting percentages are horrible. Sounds like an even more overpaid version of Derrick Jones Jr. Not a 20m per year starter.
