What are your thoughts on compensation? My thought is that he's projecting to be an OG/Mikal Bridges, precisely what this team needs. His RebRtg of 13.4 would rank him #2 on the Mavs, only behind Wood... at the pf/sf spot which is our weakest.
His first year compares favorably to the OG's 3rd and Mikal's 2nd year (adjusted comparison for age difference).

He has more size than Mikal. Here are their draft vitals...
Tari 6'8", 217lbs, 7'2"wingspan
OG 6"7", 232lbs, 7'2"wingspan
Mikal 6'7", 210lbs, 7'1"wingspan
So what would we give up to have either Mikal or OG? Factoring in the risk that he doesn't develop into OG/Mikal, what are we willing to give up for Tari?
