I didn't realize how little time he had spent working on his bball skills. The main point of the vid is that he isn't near his ceiling. And the flaws pointed out, like caring for the ball, better decision making and more heads up help defense are eminently correctable. As the video narrator suggests, a lot of his excellence seems to be instinctive. Add some directed instruction and focus to that and it is hard to predict how high he could rise.

I've watched a bit of Sims highlights, great athlete but seems pretty limited offensively. I'm still working the the centre prospects in 2nd. Bassey and Queta are my favourites so far (in the 2nd)
My super raw sleeper is Ibou Dianko Badji. He's another Bruno, but I think we have better infrastructure to develop these kinds of guys now. The Raps should try to truly develop these guys through our system, it would be a game changer. I doubt it happens but, if you could give a 2nd rounder a 5 year incentive based contract where he makes a base salary playing in the GLeague, if he makes it to the NBA team he earns more money, if he becomes a rotation player he earns even more and so on... I think agents would get in the way of this, but for a guy like Badji it's the only way he's worth the investment.
But I should watch more Sims now. lol

My take is......I think Masai will do Whatever he can to get Zach Edey in two years.......maybe it's way TOO Early but if we have Edey, what do you do with Badji?? If you watch the Canada vs Senegal U19, Edey dominated over Badji

I don't mean this as a ceiling, but his game reminds me of George Hill. Who I really like, but he has the chance to be a much better version of that. Has the same grit, similar demeanour, tough defender, good court vision but also has the chance to be a really special version of that.
Where I think Suggs may struggle is with his shot. He seems like a full head of steam type of player which can make it difficult to have the proper balance to be a good shooter. Correctable, but will take time and practice. Fortunately, he seems like a hard worker.

I don't see us trading up unless Masai has fallen completely for one of Mobley or Suggs (I don't think Green is the sort of player he falls in love with, although I think if he's left at 4 Masai drafts him anyway). Trading down (or out for a star) is a possibility.
