Good Lord. There is so much potential on this 20-year old kid. Imagine if he gets to learn JUST a little bit of Luka and Kyrie's ball handling and playmaking, he'd be unguardable. His Euro step is so elegant. His anticipation and timing are on point, reason why he's able to block so many shots. I would not be surprised if he would win or become no. 2 or 3 DPOY in 2 or 3 years. Next year, I see him averaging 15 points a game.

In the realm of the Wembayma draft/Chet Homgren official rookie year…. I can see Lively always being an underrated center where he’ll never be a redo #1 pick draft option. But always a key piece that will make him a Hall of Famer player. All up to him for sure… but he’s doing phenomenal already hitting the ground running when he wasn’t a huge piece in college. Proud of him!

Watch this guy in interviews. His maturity is honestly unbelievable. You can just tell he’s cut from the same cloth as a lot of greats. He’s going to be a fantastic player. He’s got great hands and his playmaking is insanely underrated and will open up the offense as he improves. He’s going to get a shot at some point, he’s working on it in practice. He may not become as good as wemby, but I can see him becoming somewhat of a rival for him.
