Yep. I've seen him starting at the 3 but I think he's better served as their 6th man.
I needed a big who can shoot the ball, space the floor and can play with either Gobert or Favors.
Through the first 2/3 of the season (55 games) Dario Saric averaged 10.8 points per game, 5.9 rebounds per game and 1.8 assists per game. Solid numbers for a rookie.
Last 1/3 of the season (26 games) he increased his numbers to 17.4 points per game, 7.4 rebounds per game and 3.2 assists per game. That's pretty damn good no matter what team you're on.
He may very well end up getting his minutes reduced. . . but he's proven that he can produce when he's out there.
Right now, he's my 7th man on the roster.

I like it. Perhaps a round too high but I love the kid. He has balls.

Saric can shoot?
I think he can. Lots of rookies generally shoot low %'s
Saric is an old rookie though. He got worse as the year went on too. People only got hyped on him becasue Embiid went down and he got the ball a lot more.
Ingles was an old rookie who was a pro over seas. NBA is the highest level of basketball. No one comes in and dominates their first year unless u are an all time great
