He is an upside gamble.. we could have taken Rui, or Clarke, or PJ Washington or Cam Johnson, and been pretty certain we had a very good player, that for our immediate need. But we took Garland because we thought he might be a Kyrie like player that was being under valued in the draft.. And he might be that. We won't know until he achieves NBA conditioning, which might be a year or two down the line, if we can keep him healthy.. if he hits that mark, it was a genius move to draft him at 5..
I think in the 2020 draft we will look for a more physically ready player.. A lot of the draft board right now are guards, but I would be surprised if we don't see a SF or PF show up during the season..
