This guy, Greg Anthony's son, was a HS and AAU stud (MVP in all the HS all-star games). He was amazing his first five games at NC (easy top five pick). The profile below does a really nice job. NC had zero spacing (not an issue in Dallas) and Anthony tried to do too much. His efficiency stats are awful. The question is whether the truth is what he did the rest of the season at NC or what he was as the best PG in his HS class?

He has the same ‘smoothness’ that I thought Donovan Mitchell had coming out. Stats don’t look great, but the eyeball test says that he could be something special... a certain feel for the game that can’t be learnt.
My worry is I don’t know how well he’d do on this roster, but I guess you worry about that later. Worst case scenario you have a juicy, juicy trade chip to turn into something more fitting later.
