I think DeAndre Ayton is a good example of the concern with drafting a center that isn't either an all-world defender or a dynamic perimeter threat.As much as I want a center, I just don't know if a guy modeling his game after late 80s/early 90s post oriented centers is the way to go. And this is coming from a guy who's favorite players were the Dream and the Admiral.
He's averaged 17-11 with good efficiency in his first two seasons, but is anybody really excited about his future? I fear that might be Wiseman's path. Wouldn't shock me to see him be 20-10 with passable defense fairly early in his career, but I'm not sure how valuable that actually is in today's NBA.
