Re: Doug McDermott
His ceiling is like a more well rounded Kyle Korver.
Hoping Presti trades up and get this dude, he'd shoot close to 45% from deep with all the open looks he'd get in OKC.

Re: Doug McDermott
PSA for others posting in this thread:
Please only compare him to white NBA players, past or present. Let's not get too crazy here.

Re: Doug McDermott
Should be a pretty sound offensive player in the league, but he's garbage on defense.
Mike Miller/Jared Dudley with Boozer like defense.

Re: Doug McDermott
Right now on offense he looks like David Lee inside the perimeter and anytime he gets even a decent 3pt look he drills it like Kyle Korver.

Re: Doug McDermott
Been saying it all season...
18-20 ppg, 6-8 rpg at the 3 spot.
But the thing with him is, he doesnt rely on athleticism, he relies on fundamentals. Hes game is pure and refined. He understands the offense, he makes great cuts, hes an excellent free throw shooter. He has size. He defends with angles.
He'll have a long career.

Re: Doug McDermott
I think he will be a safe pick. His ceiling is a 3rd option on a good team.

Re: Doug McDermott
Larry Bird is usually the go to guy when making comparisons for White players. Don't see why this should be any different. Originally Posted by Qwyjibo

Re: Doug McDermott
I remember seeing a ridiculous comparison for Mike Dunleavy Jr coming out of college... and it said Larry Bird
Glad stupid analysts stopped making such comparisons.
