Gradey D.ick, the worst pick of the draft, does not get talked about enough (alien.top)

He played 15 games in the NBA before the Raptors quickly realized he was nowhere near NBA level. In those 15 NBA games:

3.9/1.5/1.0 on 27% FG & 24% 3P

Now that he's in the G-League, it's not any better. In 3 G-League games:

15/2.7/1.0 on 27% FG & 28% 3P

I'm not one to hate on rookies early in their career, but these are unacceptable stats for a lottery pick. These stats also don't reflect how big of a net negative he is on defense, effectively making him unplayable in any professional basketball setting

I personally think no one on this sub has heard his name, because D*ck is a banned word for post titles. I had to resubmit this post 6 different times wondering why it wasn't allowed

I mean 15ppg on horrible shooting isn't a terrible sign. He's not going to continue shooting under 30%. That percentage will increase which will make his ppg go up, which will then help in his playmaking. Give the KID some time
