I would expect an all round idiot like u to have this view. Lol at u thinking Bookers ceiling is Thompson. Booker can't defend isn't athletic and strictly a spot up shooter his ceiling is more Green from the Spurs with less defense.

Just so ya know, the guys that did the play by play during the draft (j Williams, jalen rose, and the two white dudes) compared Booker to klay.

I didn't want booker but allot of people think Bookers ceiling is klay

Can Lyles be Donyell Marshall? I'd be really OK with that. Probably my favorite short term Jazz Player ever. He looked slow and smooth, but played really well as a fill-in for Russell and Malone. Kind of an average 3 point shooter, but still holds the record for 3 pointers made in a game. . .

I wonder if they botched his wingspan as well. Went from 7'3.5 last year to 7'1.5" at the combine. They do make a few errors here and there, Pat Connaugton's reach is another.
Look how he dunks this ball from outside the restricted area barely jumping.

Lol. I know they were garbage as far as I'm concerned 90% of all draft prospects get over hyped

How come? His wingspan is 0.75'' shorter than Klay Thompson's and 5'' longer than Redicks's?

Also, Booker is the youngest player in this draft and is very possible he's still growing and can even surpass Klay's wingspan in a year or two.

He's done growing, was 6'6" in 2013.

His wingspan was measured 6'6.5 in October! It was measured at 6'8.25 at the combine. Players' wingspan grows by them filling out their frame, even if they don't grow height-wise. Even if he doesn't grow anymore he's Klay Thompson physically much more than he is Redick.
