Age isnt the issue for me. There is always a major jump going from college to the NBA. Most players struggle big time. Even Cooper Flagg is having a transition.

WCJ looks comfortable in most situations. I am sure he is still drinking through a fire hose.

Also WCJ is going to be a two way player so I see more upside there. Key probably scores more points but Walt looks like he will be more serviceable to a championship team.
 
Walter Marterry Clayton Jr is a player of substance, with robust poise for a “rookie.” We must recall that Identity and Similarity are two separate philosophical concepts, yet dare I propose, that in some empirical regards, Walter Marterry Clayton Jr has similar attributes with none other than Derrick Richard White? Protest as you may.

Idk, probably Lauri lol. But I know it wasn't WCJ cause he was fouled out.
 
Clayton isn't as physically gifted as Keyonte, so theoretically his ceiling is lower, but Jr. seems to have a rare head on his shoulders, and ultimately a supremely confident, skilled, PG with a great feel, will beat out a less skilled but higher physical ceiling PG.

I would have said Clayton unquestionably before Keyonte had shown the mental/physical growth of this offseason, but *new* Keyonte has turned it back into a question mark.

I'd still give it to Jr. by a nose, but it is extremely subject to change.

Derrick White can defend.
 
Clayton often ends up in the center, hunting for rebounds or steals. But that usually means that he left his man wide open. One of the recurring situations on the court is Clayton rushing like hell towards the corner to (usually, unsuccessfully) contend the wide open three, which he created by leaving his man. I don't think that Walter has enough length to free roam like that and be able to get back just in time, he is not Kirilenko.

Not even two weeks later and this seems like a wild question.

Seemed like a wild question to me right when it was posed.
Yet Walt has a huge lead in the poll results.

The next shiny thing will always be a superstar.

If someone posted "who has the better career, Keyonte or our next draft pick", it would be the draft pick. If someone managed to convince everyone we would eventually get this boy Jimmy Dunksalot that's now 14, it would be the boy.
 
I’m super excited to see Keyonte’s growth this year. I voted for Walter, but at the time Keyonte was coming off of a historically bad season as a defender, also seemed to have some attitude issues. He has improved his defense and attitude. I suppose I’d change my vote if we were voting today.
