The touch around the rim is very unproven against NBA strength, but he should get there as he fills out, and his quickness (which I've argued should actually allow him to be able to run out as both backup 4 and 5 in a three man big rotation if need be) is definitely nice, hopefully it holds up as he adds strength.

But he definitely needs to add strength just to get to the point where he can finish inside consistently. Not to bulk up to where JV got to (even JV should not have bulked up that much), but his finishing inside when you compare between D-League or college competition versus the bigger, faster and stronger NBA competition is night and day. It's part of why his summer league performance and international games are encouraging, but I can't pencil him in as ready until I see him manage the same against better competition.
