He's on a Jr Smith trajectory if he doesn't smarten up. Like Smith he has the athleticism, electrifying finishes and shooting touch, but consistency and IQ might prevent him from ever being a top option on a winning team.

[QUOTE=brownmamba00;14899399]Houston might have to choose between Alpo and Green in the near future. Green started balling out after Sengun injury.[/QUOTE]
Easy choice
Not even close.
Will he become the player many hoped he would ? No.
But he’s still going to be a starter and rotation player the majority of his career.
“A Bust” is someone who was a lottery pick but never becomes a successful starter, and is either a bench player or in the G-league.
Jalen could easily have many seasons of being “the man” on a 20-win team. Or he could become a good second option on a playoff team. Or a 3rd option on a contender.
But a bust ? No way.
