Not expecting much from him this year in the NBA, but I definitely have no ruled him out of being a big part of this team next year or the year after like Dallas41 has.

I'll be surprised if he doesn't make it in the NBA. There's just so much talent there. Far, far less talented players have had very long and successful NBA careers. But he was always going to be a long term project. I was never expecting anything in year 1, and honestly I'm not getting my hopes for year 2 even, beyond being a minor rotation player. Year 3 though I would expect real NBA production. If it hasn't happened by then, then it probably won't happen.
