A little like Tayshaun?  Is that a fair comp for Risacher? 

I haven't seen much of the kid, so I don't know how he plays.

Seems soft to me, but possibly a high floor pick like Prince was.

Give me Terrence Shannon Jr. for the Green. Good size, unapologetic 3 point bomber. Took Illinois farther than they had business going.

Sarr seems soft to me too. It'd be nice if the Wizards could be good though.

People online are saying that the Top-2 picks in this year's Draft would probably go #12 other years.

Oof.

European leagues really don't inflate the stats of stars.  Doncic only scored 16 per game in his best year, for reference.

I like Castle but "bigger Jrue Holiday" is a stretch, lol.  Jrue could shoot as soon as he entered the league and is now the best corner three-point shooter in the game.  Yeah they both play defense but we have to look at both ends of the court here.

Castle is more like Smart than Holiday to me.  There's also a nonzero chance that he's more like Matisse Thybulle though.
