Entering college he drew many comparisons to Brandon Ingram and Kevin Durant, but that was based on the eye-test and lanky body type. He doesn't have the desire to shoot like those two, and instead has devoted himself to being a multi-faceted defensive force.  That isn't to say that he can't shoot, his %s in college were actually quite nice from all spots on the floor, but he just hasn't shown interest in being the lead man on offense.  On the defensive side of the ball he is a pest and creates turnovers (both blocks and steals) at an astonishing rate.  He capably guards 2-4, not having the heft for bigger bigs or the absolute quickness for PGs, but in the middle of that range he is incredibly capable.   He has a slight injury risk going forward, which could hamper his development, as he has already experienced knee problems at FSU.  While his rebounding rate when playing the 4 is simply average, the rate has not dipped in his minutes at SF and for that position it would be considered elite.
