Although, the Chandler Parsons comp has some truth to it. I still like a Brandon Roy comp the most. This guy in the video says he's a legit PG, and this is the second video highlight I've seen where Doncic displays some elite level passing. Again this was back in July, I wonder if he's changed his mindset this season for some reason? I still see Doncic as more of a SG based on the more current videos I've seen of him.
Anyways, some strong analysis in this video. Give it a look & tell me what you think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uu_Ejkd8N8E |
He's soooo slooooow... Can he even be effective on the break with DSJ? It's almost like having another Dirk out there, lumbering his way to the arc for a catch & shoot. I want my wings to be quick, give Dennis a 2-on-1 option streaking to the hoop on fast breaks... He's not quick enough to defend guards either -- almost need him to be a ball-handling SF like Chandler Parsons (who is actually not a horrible comparison).
I dunno, I think he'll be a good player, I just like other guys more... Like, I'm getting to a point where I'd actually prefer Mikal Bridges out there with Dennis Smith Jr, but that's more on Bridges than on Doncic.
