What is Gordon Hayward's ceiling?
He's currently averaging 9.6 PPG, 3.2 RPG and 3.3 APG. He's shown a lot of growth since last season and is an important piece of that young Jazz core. What players do you think his peak will be comparable to?

I think he's an Iguodala type player. I have nothing to back that up other than what I've seen.

A more athletic Mike Miller is a great comparison IMO.

Needs to show more consistency is what I'd say right now.

He needs to pack on some weight and develop a bit of a mean streak if those Iggy comparisons have any chance of ringing true.
Edit: somehow Haywood weighs more than Iggy. Weird... he doesn't look it.

Needs to be more assertive. He is one of the best passers for his position.

Well, he can't get much whiter than he is...so I'd say he's about hit it.
Oh, you mean his game? *shrug* Dude's good. Hot girlfriend on his hip when he got drafted.
K, really? I wasn't even paying attention. Hi.

I don't think he'll ever average more than around 14/5/4 or so. I think he's a bench player.

You know he's 21, right? You think he'll only improve by five points, two rebounds, and an assist?

I don't think Hayward is nearly the shooter Miller is especially from the 3 point line.
I can't really think of a great comparison. Mike Dunleavy Jr.? Similar all around skill set.

Yep sounds about right. His ceiling is limited by his lack of elite athleticism and slow foot speed. He'll score more if he improves his outside shot and will increase his assists and rebounds with experience, but I don't see him as anything more than a role player. His defense is pretty bad too.

Re: What is Gordon Hayward's ceiling?
Personally... he reminds me of a Paul Pierce type player with a rawer offensive game
