30 points tonight!
Averaging 24.7 ppg, 8.7 rpg, 3.3 apg, 1.3 topg, on 37.5% 3PT (10.7 3pa/g), 100% FT (4 fta/g), 60.4% TS over the last three games.
Strong-built, high IQ, crafty, lethal movement & spot-up shooter with an underrated and burgeoning floor game (passing, ball handling). Could we be looking at the Larry Bird of G/Fs? LOL. He wasn't better than Cooper at Duke, but I remember seeing some [I]very interesting[/I] lineup & on-court/on-off numbers for Kon.

Desmond Bane and Devin Booker are some names I heard thrown around over the last year. FWIW, he's studied and heavily influenced by Klay Thompson and Jimmy Butler. That's a nice off-ball/on-ball combo.
He has better basketball skills than Coop. Coop just had the big physical/athletic advantage.
Dog shit!
19 points, 10 rebounds, 9 assists, on 6/11 shooting and 2/6 from three tonight. He's averaging 23.3/9/4.8 on 62.4% TS with a 40.1 Net-rating swing (+10.2 ON, -29.9 OFF) without LaMelo last 4 games. Guard Larry Bird! Summer League MVP. On pace to potentially win ROY.
Charlotte needs to give him the keys and move on from the dummies like Bridges. He iced out Kon multiple times tonight.
He’s a mature, sane, sensible kid, in a league full of immature, insane, nonsensical morons.
And that can get him fairly far.
Will be a great head coach 22 years from now.
He seems like a high iq kid with good fundamentals, morals, shooting and sneaky athleticism. Never saw a clip of him yet though.
