Nothing went wrong, he just isn't good at basketball. He has all the physical tools but absolutely none of the mental ones or even basic fundamentals. He couldn't box out or even set screens and had really really bad awareness. He was also a bit moody, would get down on himself for missing a shot or committing a foul, and that would just pull him down even further. Absolutely no motor either, very low effort if his shot wasn't falling. I mean he was getting beat for minutes by a Khem Birch simply because Birch knew how to do basic shit like get in rebounding positions and set actual screens.
Dude just isn't a basketball player. Really just an example of how far you can get with those physical traits and not much else. I know this sounds harsh but it's true. I watched damn near every game he played for us.
sound like wiseman
