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

 

What's going on with Ivey? I know he's still early in his 2nd year, but he looks like the exact same player as game 1 in his rookie year. I've seen zero improvement from this guy. Low shooting percentages, low assists, high turnovers, negative defender.

Even Jabari Smith Jr who started just as bad if not worse than Ivey has shown improvement in his game. Keegan Murray even when his shots aren't falling has turned into a plus defender usually guarding the opponents best player. Sharpe has shown improvements, same with Dyson Daniels. I've seen nothing from Ivey that's wow'ed me for a top draft pick
