    Reminds me of Cory Joseph. Hopefully he will turn out as good.

    This is my 1st time watching videos of this dude... I like him. I really like lil Forbes, but I think he's the odd man out... his height will be his downfall.
    Truth is, if White is shooting as well as he has been advertised, Forbes is likely gone.

    He's bigger than Joseph, has better handles and can shoot better. I think they are even in terms of athleticism.

    I don't think its even close. White is better than Joseph.... not in the future... most likely today.

    Better offensive player than CoJo ever was. Worse defender though.

    This guy has done nothing but improve and prove people wrong his whole life so far. And at an unusual rate since high school. I'm not gonna doubt him yet. I feel like he's on an upward slope. Can't wait to see him play tomorrow.
    That poster is known to doubt Black players, tbh..he once said he would be surprised if Simmons could read

    Maybe. I don't see him being that good at the NBA level though.

    Do you know how many players have been drafted in the first round, after not receiving a single D1 scholarship offer out of HS? Scottie Pippen. Steve Francis. Ben Wallace. Jack Sikma. Avery Johnson. John Starks. Terry Porter. Late bloomers. There's a lot more reason to believe he will be good in the NBA, than to believe that he won't.

    You've never even watched him play, so what are you basing your opinion on? Other than the fact that he's not Jimmer Fredette.

    Stat-wise, I think he's better than Joseph was in just about every single column. Physically? He's taller, bigger wingspan, and MUCH better springs. He had a 35.5" no-step vert in the combine. If I remember, that was like 6-7" more than Joseph.

    Too many posters not consulting the draft report and making comments based on the 'eye-test'.

    Seriously, does it not sound like a steal with a guy that is as athletic as Mike Conley and already being able to handle the ball and shoot extremely well.

    I think Murray may be out of a job.
    I think Murray and White could be an interesting combo guard duo.

    6'4 isn't small for a 2. Most od the best perimeter defenders are around that height wit quick feet and long reach.which this kid has.

    His shooting numbers were not that worse than the best shooter in the draft, forgot his name but he was hyped from shooting. Except white can do way more. He made all defensive team in a conference with fultz and lonzo in it.

    I was upset on draft night, because I wanted a running big or longer wing, and mostly because I didn't know the kid very well. Once I looked him up though, he seems like an A+ pick in almost all regards.

    The age thing to Me, is a bonus. He will be cheap for the next 4-5 years. Whereas a young player will not be able to play for 3-4 years and then probably cost too much to keep if he can play. This kid will be here and ready to contribute on the cheap. Same as blossom. I think that's huge when you're trying to make money for next year's rebuild/ reload.

    I honestly and whole heartedly believe Kyle Anderson has hurt so many posters, any player looking similar is going to scare spurfan away tbh

    Not to mention, he didnt get D1 offers because he was 5'10 his senior year.

    He exploded in college.

    Maybe, he'll be the next Devin Booker. I'm just relaying my initial impression.

    You're drunk and, if you're not, you need to be cordoned off from the public.
    Your is just toxic and ugly.

    I actually liked you and that was your initial impression?
    Dude. You think he'll throw down 70 on a superior defender, in the NBA?

    Joseph was a long shot. Her never should have left when he did and only by landing with a patient team was he able to make it to decent. I would agree White has better tools coming out of college, but then he's older.

    You think my initial impression was that he'll throw down 70 on a "superior defender"? You should reread....

    BTW, I don't know if Avery Bradley is the superior defender you speak of; but he was not playing.

    You're drunk and, if you're not, you need to be cordoned off from the public.
    Your is just toxic and ugly.
    I'm inclined to think you're the one drinking and posting right now, tbh.

    How about this- I will give you the benefit of the doubt.
    You can sneak in snide remarks and such later.

    There is no doubt unless I'm misunderstanding you. I stated my initial impression of White is not favorable. You presented pretty much the opposite.

    I think you're right. Late bloomers, Hard workers.
