The guy's seven games into his career. It's hard to project anything with accuracy. I've thrown around Jose Calderon meets Jose Juan Barea and maybe homeless man's Nash but it's all guess work - like CB's proclamation he's not starter-worthy.
This guy may have saved a franchise's season (arguably the most important franchise media-wise). It's great for Ivy Leaguers, Asian-Americans, guys who didn't get D1 offers and underdogs in general. Also, maybe equally important to his basketball skills in terms of team success and "linning", his team has just absolutely rallied around him. It's a great, great sports story. It's also not like it's boring basketball. Turnovers and all, he's been exciting to watch. Small man aggressively driving inside, good ball movement, high risk plays and fast breaks (including the other teams') - it's the stuff casual fans (and many hardcore fans) want to watch.
