Haha oh man this is my biggest gripe with this guy watching his clips. Has there been a play so far where he made contact with his man and rolled or popped?As good as Ayton is, he is absolutely one of the worst/softest screeners I've ever seen. He doesn't like to put his body on guys EVER when he sets a pick on or off the ball.
Just something I noticed that would need fixed ASAP.
Also re: MPJ's lack of wiggle. That was a concern I brought up before myself. If what @Nathan S says about his competitiveness is true, and other things I've seen posters on this board say about his flawless off the court reviews, I'm betting everything on that every day of the week and twice in Sunday. If he's truly that competitive and that well regarded off the court he will utterly max out his ceiling and be a force to be reckoned with. All I know is when I look at draftees the number one thing that's predictive of their success is their fire and IQ, the second criteria I've found to be predictive is if they're strong for their size/position.
Edit: wait a minute. He played through that injury for years and is fully rehabbing it now after surgery?? I'm MPJ or bust now. This smacks of a market inefficiency. If he rehabs to correct all the compensation issues he must have had earlier I think there's a whole new level of lateral mobility he can unlock right there. Well then, it seems I've settled on the number one for my draft board.
