Among replies to the tweet, mostly from Jazz fans, this one stuck out: “Kessler. Defense seems to have a comparable ceiling but Kessler’s offensive game will far surpass Rudy’s.”

a generational defender and one of the most impactful offensive players. Good luck with that!

Part of the Kessler story is that he is not burdened by expectations and there’s no reason to heap those on him now. But there’s little doubt that Kessler will be among the league’s top rim protectors for years to come.

plenty of doubt. Let's see how hard he works

Eventually, the big test for Kessler will be the postseason. Will he encounter similar issues in the Western Conference playoffs that plagued Gobert for years? Will he be able to guard on the perimeter against the likes of Steph Curry, Luka Doncic and Ja Morant?

will he get the help Gobert didn't? We've yet to see him guard in space like Gobert could

The Jazz couldn’t go small in the past in part because the team was built around Gobert. Taking your highly-paid centerpiece off the floor in high-stakes moments isn’t a good look. With Kessler on a rookie contract, the Jazz shouldn’t have that problem.

you mean small with a couple 6 footers and a 6'4 PF?

Jordan Clarkson’s scoring is up to 21.7 points per game over the last week, but he’s had more turnovers than assists, and his plus-minus is a team-worst -11.7.

can only hope that shit show is about to go elsewhere

doubt he goes to The Wolves. You want their pick. Conley makes them better
