He just comes off to me as volume shot chucker who will never be efficient.
I'm guessing in 2 or 3 years he won't even be on this roster

Dude is a fresh 20 years having missed his senior season of high school thanks to Covid and made the decision to jump straight into playing against adults. I think the two negatives you mentioned are greatly impacted by his timeline and at the same time are two very coachable traits. I would disagree on basketball IQ, especially from an offensive viewpoint. He's obviously advanced enough in scoring but has to continue to learn playing within a system and team offense.
Don't get me wrong, I think he's got a tough hill to climb and I think he finds himself at least in a rotation in the NBA.
