I think I even thought that there was like, there were like some Fred Van Vliety kind of outcomes in terms of super high level shooter, tough defensively, you know, maybe not great off the ball defensively, but you know, super strong lower half willing to fight as a smaller guy on defense. I did not see the offensive growth coming this quickly with him on the ball. Uh,

Jared McKay, like, you know, we talked about the strength of this rookie class. Like Jared McCain is out for the year. I think he played what, like 23 games this year. Right. And yeah,

I still have him third and like rookie of the year voting and like rookie rankings right now, because what he showed on the ball in terms of being able to create consistently and efficiently as an NBA player, this early, he averaged 15 points, 46% from the field, 38% from three 88% from the line.

had a true shooting percentage that was above league average, despite having a usage rate that was really, really high. Like he was up at 25% usage because he was taking on a ton of responsibilities with Tyrese Maxey out.

And then you look at like, he had a monster monster stretch there from like, you know, the beginning of November until, you know, right around Thanksgiving where he was just a stud. So yeah,

I would say that the ability for McCain to consistently use his pace and use his change of tempo to get downhill and be able to score from inside the arc and not just be reliant on his three-point shot, that would be probably my main skill that I didn't see coming this quickly.

Yeah, I think it's probably this is for me. I went with A.J. Mitchell here.

I loved A.J. Mitchell. I had a first round grade on A.J. to, you know, thought the Thunder were super lucky to get him at number 40 overall. I thought that he was a little bit more of an on-ball guy than what he has proven himself to be. I remember talking to him pre-draft and he was like, no, I feel pretty good shooting off the catch.
