Following Potential 2025 Draftees

Fears gets to the rim at a massively higher rate than Tre, also draws tons of fouls, turning shots he would make at the rim into Free Throws which don't get reflected in the rim%.

Fears has great shooting indicators from everywhere except off the dribble 3s. He just took a ton of off dribble 3s. Fears shoots as well with non-rim 2s as Ace Bailey (46%)

Fears has a 28.6% assist rate compared to Tre's 16.5% assist rate. When players make more passes, they have more turnovers generally. A/T ratio is only a small part of the playmaking picture. Tre is masssively handicapped by the fact that he can't consistently get into the paint and create advantages for others.

Fears profiles as a boom or bust offensive engine guard. Tre profiles as an all shooting no defense off guard. That is why some people see Fears as a better prospect.
Fears drives to the rim at a higher rate because he doesn't have an outside shot. Tre wouldn't have to drive as much because he can shoot from anywhere and can score easy buckets off the catch. Tre doesn't need to drive or dribble for 10+ seconds to take the air of the ball on every possession to be effective. And Fears high TOs and low percentage at the rim suggest he's not very good at that either. Not yet at least. Not sure what's so hard to understand about this.

Fears higher assist rate/drive rate is a result of higher usg%(31% compared to Tre's 29%) which backs up my point of him needing the ball in his hand to be effective. And in the NBA, and on our team in particular, he simply wouldn't be able to get that.
