Billy Preston: Most likely the next LeBron James

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Billy Preston is still a cog in the Cavs wheel.
 
Billy Preston sighting.

He still just wants to be a guy that takes 3 pointers off the dribble. Looks like he has made some progress in trying to use his size to get to the rim. A year or two of playing center where a team takes away his 3 point shot completely, would do wonders for his development. Force him to get stronger and learn some moves/touch in the paint. Then move him down to PF or SF and let him work on his 3.
 
He is the Samardo Samuels of this version of the Cavs.

One of the reasons I have soured so much on summer league ball. The good players aren't playing in a system, because the majority of the players will never amount to anything and are all looking to score to make a team.

That said, back to my original point. There are dozens of Billy Prestons playing in summer league, I get so frustrated.
 
Does anybody else look at that video and see a young Paul Pierce?
 
He lasted 3 games in the NBL. Averaged 6ppg on 24% in 20 mins. He was never anywhere near NBA level, some fans (a lot for memory) still complained when we cut him though despite his awful G league stats.
