Evan Mobley vs Toronto: 16.5 PPG/7.5 REB/4 AST and 18% from 3 Jabari Smith vs LAL : 18.5 PPG / 8.0 REB / 1.3 AST and 39% from 3. Jalen Green might still actually be a better player than this dude. Neither has any business being part of a serious basketball team.
We don't have a guard, and we drafted Green. I think also, all the "ifs and buts" - we were tanking on purpose trying to get a generational franchise player. They were there, and we missed them through bad lottery luck. But "if" we had taken Mobley, then what sort of player would he be if given unlimited reps to improve his offensive game initially? Could have been good, or terrible for him overall.
Mobley was never a go to dominant player. The team also had Wood at that time. It would have been Mobley KPJ tandem as well. I don’t think it makes a difference in terms of improvement etc.
