He seems to more or less be the player he's going to be at age 26. He shot 42% from the field this year and 38% from three, averaging 23 points 4.1 assists and 7 rebounds per game.

He's not a super efficient scorer, but he's a pretty good one and he's also one of the league's best defenders. What does that make him? A top 20 player, or a top 10 or top 15? Is Draymond Green actually better than PG?

(I don't think so, I think versatility is a bit overrated; i don't think Draymond would stand out as much on other teams, but he;s an extremely valuable piece to have)

Just wondering. You guys know your stuff, so let me know what you think!

Around a top 10 player. I'll take Paul George going forward over Draymond definitely but it wasn't too far off this year.

As 28/8/4 with solid shooting and with elite defence . Arguably top 5 , definitely top 10 .

Let's not forget he's coming off that devastating foot injury. I wanna see how he does next season before I say anything but to me he is ridiculously talented.

I checked his last playoffs stats, it's like 27 pts, 39% from 3, 6 assists vs the Raptors, who had a reputation of being a good defensive team.
That's pretty good iMO.

Good enough to be the first option of a very mediocre team forever.

He neither a playmaker nor an efficient enough scorer to my liking. And unfortunately I don't think he's willing to revert back to being anything other than a first option.
