Kevin Porter Jr. Man he looks like a baller. His shake is so good. Athleticism shooting and handle.
I liked his highlight but it's concerning that he only scored 9.5 point per game and only got 22 minutes. It's not like USC is some powerhouse basketball program.
He seems real good off the ball, he seems to get open and is in the right places alot.
With his character concerns and lack of putting up a decent amount of points, I would think he is in play more if we can secure another pick in the teens with JRs contract than at #5.
He looks like a guy that would work very well as a 4th or 5th best player either coming off the bench or starting with a couple other ball handlers.
Until we hear that ATL is absolutely zeroed in on one guy they must have, there’s no reason to believe they’re just dying to unload 8 and 10.

Right -- there's no reason to believe right now that they want to trade 8 and 10. But there's nothing wrong with discussing potential options in the event it later turns out to be true. Especially considering we likely won't find out whether or not it is true until draft night.
People are comparing him to Tony Wroten, but he is 1M times better as a shooter.
I do think he has one of the high upsides out of the draft. Total scoring isn't great, but he was pretty efficient. I guess he is a chucker.
I'm really torn on these wings. I could see Hunter, Culver, reddish, or Porter. I see that list in order of safest and lowest floor to riskiest highest ceiling.
With a good developmental coach should you just always swing hard?
I think it's fine if you want to call him a role player. I think what he becomes will be extremely valuable. A good scorer and elite defender. He's a better player than Otto Porter, IMO.
And the only thing truly wrong with Otto Porter is his contract.
If he was making half of his current salary, people would be falling over themselves with how much they love him. He's averaged 5.8 WS a year over the last five years.
The guy is a .480/.400/.800 career shooter and gives you 14-6-2-1.5, doesn't turn it over while playing good defense.
If Culver became Porter, we would all be very happy.
Yeah he looks special. He looks better than Barrett the way he moves and handle the ball. Looks explosive. Reminds me of Kobe/Harden hybrid.Kevin Porter Jr. Man he looks like a baller. His shake is so good. Athleticism shooting and handle.
