He can shoot. He's got a hitch in his shooting motion which might not translate well to the NBA, but he was probably the most accurate shooter in the top-5.
Yes, but more. He is a good step back three point shooter. Very good. But he does not seem able to shoot moving to his right side, his shot style is problematic, and he has no mid range game or shot.

To me at least, ball does some things very well. But he has significant holes in other areas. On that front, he reminds me of Simmons.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Swap with the Suns at #4, who might have Ball at the top of their board and also have extra picks in the future.

Not interested in Ball. Trade down and pick up additional assets.

Take him and try to move AB, Smart, and Crowder for Butler.
