He isn't the quickest and doesn't have the ability to creat his own shot off the dribble. He is a quick/explosive jumper, though, and does pretty much everything else well. And he has a good basketball IQ. As of right now he is in my top 5.

imo he's like a more athletic david west than a smaller blake griffin. from what i've seen, he's nowhere near as physical or as good a rebounder, and he's also not as strong in the post. he does have a much better jumper though

Derrick had a good game last night. He was a beast on the boards grabbing 18 boards. He didn't take many shots and hit his only three point attempt, which is surprising with the way his hand is wrapped. You could tell it bothered him last night, he struggled from the foul line, a place where he usually thrives.
Cal was doubled and sometimes running three guys at him, he handled it very well. He either found the open man or split the defense. He did foul out, a first for him, but they were hard fouls for the most part. Sean Elliot was the color guy and he really likes Derrick. He said he will play the three in the NBA.
I think past Irving this guy would be the safest pick. And a player like Iggy with a very good shot that plays the three.
