"Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is a lottery pick. Fiction"
--I would like to know how many of you have seen KCP in the past 8 games or so..... He is one of the most improved players in the country.
He projects as a fine off-ball scorer (not a bad thing), he can still get buckets off the dribble and slash. I think most people have this stereotype of KCP being a one-dimensional player and somewhat of a chuker when in fact, he's not.
Like I said before he has been playing terrific defense and he blows up off his feet quick. Great rebounder for SG position. Good athlete and explosive in the break, he can get up for dunks.
As far as shooting and mechanics he is already a BEAST (literally, you can't give him any space) and he will only get better, much better.
If he stayed one more year there is no doubt in my mind he would score 20ppg+ next year and prob. be THE best 3 point shooter in the country.
.
He's getting more PPG, RPG, SPG, and same amount of APG on a team with much lesser talent THAN MCLEMORE. Also, more FT attempts.
My projected stats for KCP if he stayed in school: 22ppg- 6/7rpg - 2apg
.
Nice frame, he will get more athletic with time. His body looks like it can hold weight and retain athleticism. Look at this dunk as a freshman, imagine what he could do in the future...
P.S. props to malyk-universal for being honest and not just agreeing with the consensus
