I do see some similarities to Booker.
Not sure if this was a dig or a legit question, but answer is: Favourably.
Rookie year mpg 24.9 (Key) vs 22.2 (Exum). Numbers below:

Exactly this. I'm surprised by the FG%-focused posts in this thread.
Year 1 TS% comparison:
Keyonte: .541 (and trending up)
Damian Lillard: .546
Donovan Mitchell: .541
Devin Booker: .535
Tyrese Maxey: .531
Dwyane Wade: .530
Jamal Murray: .518
Dante Exum: .457
There's plenty to work on, but the year 1 overall shooting numbers (and trend) for a player his age and size are not bad.
i don't mean to give you more homework, but it would be interesting to see the ppg of those three time frames as well.TS% split into 3 equal-ish periods:
First 19 games: .486
Next 19 games: .552
Last 20 games: .594
This isn't perfect since I didn't filter out games he played under, like five minutes in or anything but:i don't mean to give you more homework, but it would be interesting to see the ppg of those three time frames as well.
Your obsession with wanting to dump Sexton is strange. He is a great player on a great contract and is playing very well with Key. I'm not opposed to moving Sexton if the deal makes sense but I'm not going out of my way to move him right now unless it's a homerun type offer.Keyonte is obviously one of our guys and potentially a top 40 type of player who fits the modern NBA.
It would be kind of ridiculous to keep Sexton on the team next to him. You really need to think about surrounding him with pieces that help elevate him.
Yeah, incredibly strange to think about roster moves on a fan forum. Really wild stuff I'm doing.Your obsession with wanting to dump Sexton is strange.

Go on ahead and throw out some trade proposals.There fact that people act like Sexton is this amazing player on an amazing contract and somehow can't possibly get a good trade return is some of the most hilarious copium Ive seen.
You aren't even thinking about roster moves. You just keep saying he is gone with no actual trade suggestions. That is what a fan forum is all about when talking about getting rid of players.Yeah, incredibly strange to think about roster moves on a fan forum. Really wild stuff I'm doing.
Arrest me.You aren't even thinking about roster moves. You just keep saying he is gone with no actual trade suggestions. That is what a fan forum is all about when talking about getting rid of players.
I don't always agree with you, Cy, but whenever I do, I do so strongly. This is 100% right from my perspective.Arrest me.
Just trade Sexton. I think he's good enough he will return good value and he will be at peak value this off-season. It's not a disrespect thing like a lot of you babies want to try and twist it as.
I understand the long term fit concerns. Would just love to see examples of the types of deals that we could get done here. While he isn't perfect he is VERY productive and trading him for "value" likely means picks/prospects as I doubt teams are giving up two way wings (things that would fit with Key) for combo guards these days. Trading for picks and prospects means we are taking a step back short term. He's been what our second best player this year? What if Key has a rough sophomore year like Walker is having? Is Lauri cool being worse or about the same again?I don't always agree with you, Cy, but whenever I do, I do so strongly. This is 100% right from my perspective.
Throw out some ideas. I don't think anyone is actually opposed to trading Sexton but it's stupid to say he's gone after every good game that George has without talking trade ideas. This is a message after all and that is what we love to do.I don't always agree with you, Cy, but whenever I do, I do so strongly. This is 100% right from my perspective.
Everyone knows it's impossible to take picks/prospects from one trade and flip those in another trade.I understand the long term fit concerns.
