Following Potential 2025 Draftees

I think we harp on shooting a little too much. It’s the one thing that is easiest to work on as you get older if you have good fundamentals and mechanics in place.
 
Queen strikes me as Demarcus Cousins-like in terms of general style, can’t speak to the general quality or transferability.

On the contrary. Shooting isn't talked about enough.

By far the most important offensive skill in the modern NBA, and the hardest to become good at if you're still bad in college. The more you improve technically in the League, the less space and time you have to shoot, as you start to get more defensive attention.

There's a reason most NBA players never seem to miss in warmups. They have to be almost automatic with no pressure, to be just OK when the pressure is on.

I went to AKs first summer league game. I recall being blown away by his feel for the game. He was throwing no look passes. It was so easy for him. AK was hand cuffed by being too early by a generation. In the modern game he would have been awesome. I think I’d rather have AK than Flagg.
