if that is a 15 year old, I imagine the value of team control for any scout, would be more appealing than 18 or 19 tbh.
The Thompson's twins team is 12-1, and I'm pretty sure most of those wins are blowouts to the point to where they dont even play that many minutes per game.
I have no idea who this 15 year old because the poster is too lazy to even link the article or say their name, but I think the Twins have separated themselves in the OTE.
Overall I dont think there is much to gain from OTE. If they were averaging 30-10-10 everyone would just say "Oh the comp sucks". They are doing what they should be doing as far as I can tell. It comes down to how well they workout and how much teams believe in their jumpers developing. They are going to be physically dominant in the NBA too once they mature.

Amen Thompson is averaging 21/8/8/1/4 on 58% TS per36. Seems like it should be impressive no matter who you are playing against.
But there is also a 15 year old (ranked #30 in his class by 247) averaging 20/13/2/1/2 on 58% TS per36.
Amen compares more favorably, obviously, but we're talking about a 20 year old versus a 15 year old playing in the same league. Production =/= draft value. Lamelo, for example, was not very good in the NBL and was immediately a better player in the NBA. But LaMelo was also a kid playing against men. Thompson twins are the other way where they are the most mature players.

How Good Are the Thompson Twins?
Amen and Ausar Thompson are taking a unique path to the NBA with Overtime Elite, and have generated enough hype to currently be rated #3 and #4 on ESPN’s board. Their selling point is straigh…

I am just going to put this out there...I am not a hig fan of the twins. I have watched a couple of games and I just get a bad feeling. I cant put anything more on it than that. Now if they were available with the draft picks I would look long and hard. I am just not convinced they are top 5 or possible top 10 talents.
Jayden Quaintance.
For sure.
Big *** 15 year old
Actually I think he may have meant Cam Boozer. Played 2 games against the teams Thompsons have played 5/13 against and apparently looked ridiculously dominant.
This is the comp.
