I think he has the potential to become an all-star and I think he'll be closer to Bradley Beal than Jordan Clarkson.
Not sure he'll be able to score that many points on the Mavericks though. I can imagine us trading him for an elite defensive player. I'm not sure the Mavericks would be able to afford his next contract should he become a 22 ppg scorer.
Hopefully Hardy is given a chance to grow and learn this year but man I don't know if he will. Legitimate chance his minutes drop to pretty much zero when Luka and Kyrie are both healthy
I think he's behind Green, THJ, and Seth for sure and fighting for minutes with Exum. Exum probably even has a bigger chance at stealing minutes from Seth and THJ since he's more of a PG than either of them
