With his age and athleticism, you would think there is untapped upside with some special attention and he should be motivated. Offense made him the #2 pick and defense is going to keep him primarily as an NBA backup. It feels like he needs to go somewhere where he can develop without the expectations of immediate results, assuming he can swallow his pride.
I agree with everything y'all have said. He would be low risk with the potential of better reward.
