He is certainly legit, averaging 19 pts.(shooting 44% from the field) and 5 rebounds a game, but plays for a bad team. I've seen almost every brave game this season and can tell you he is the real deal. I would compare his situation to that of Blake Griffin's, in that he is a great player on a bad team. Many people, me included, think this kid has a chance at playing division 1 ball next year.
