Can DLo be seen as a good comp for Kobe Bufkin? They are both lefties, but watching highlights, seems like there’s some similarity in where they get their shots from.
Bufkin is more fluid, as you point out, whereas DLo has more of a “herky-jerky” style. But, wondering if Bufkin could seemingly look to replace DLo if he leaves. We already have a “proof of concept” with that player archetype and how well they pair around Bron/Reaves/AD.
Thanks so much for the write-up! We pin all of your articles still in the Lakers Exceptionalism Discord.
Besides Djurisic, Sidy Cissoko seems to have a lot of variance still with his draft range. I’ve had several people tell me on various platforms that 17 is way too high for Sidy and I’ve even seen him mocked in the second round. People have called him “too much of a project” to draft that high, especially for the Lakers. Why are they missing what you are highlighting?
Seems like any team would LOvE a Wing, regardless of their timeline, with Jimmy Butler-size, who can read the floor on both sides, and has A+ competitiveness?
