Hes big , strong, fast , energetic and efficient at shooting in almost every area... Special player

[@wileyschmitt]

Now that we've seen that he can absorb physical contact well and play through it, as well as his ability to use those shot fakes to go along with a very quick first step to get by his defender, I think it's safe to say that we have a superstar in the making.

[@wileyschmitt]

@@angelisthegoat I was on the Mathurin bandwagon from the start, and yes he definitely has superstar potential. And stop using the word 'casuals', you sound like a parrot who repeats what other people say because you have no vocabulary. And don't be labeling people you don't even know of it, especially since the person you might be accusing of being 'casual' happens to be statistically one of the best DFS players of all time, and who has been right on more of these kinds of predictions than you can shake a stick at, because player evaluations, starting with each and every draft, are you mop up in DFS, and of course paired with a very high IQ to solve those puzzles and win big (hence why you'll probably never do well in DFS, ya clown). Respect your all knowing elders, son, cuz you never know when you might stumble across one of em like you just did.

Definitely reminds me of Bradley Beal. Mathurin and Halliburton are going to be a great backcourt.

More Jimmy Butler

@@DrewMarino1995 I like the Jimmy Buckets comparison. He’s a slightly worse defender and has a better shot IMO. The guy is just dripping with All Star potential.

Not saying it’ll happen . but just speaking stylistically on the eye test, the kid give flashbacks of rookie MJ (persona wise, style of play, killer instinct)

[@wileyschmitt]

And that very first highlight shows exactly why the Wolves will be better without Towns.

Mathurin is gonna be a beast. 18ppg off the bench 25 min a game. Amazing numbers! If he was averaging over 30 min a game like banchero, he would average more points.
