Just to be fair, let's not just look at Dawkins weaknesses from NBADraftNet. Let's look at Dawkins strengths as well.Strengths: A knockdown 3-point shooter with adequate size at about 6’5 206 … Not going to miss many open shots … Phenomenal shot when he has his feet set … One of those few shooters that can absolutely wow you just in warm ups, with his outside shooting ability ... Very fundamentally sound form, shows a compact and quick release, and can hit shots when contested … Clutch. Can make important shots … Generally stays within himself offensively and is valuable when dribble penetration forces the defense to help off him, leaving him space to shoot off kick outs … Strong … Pretty smart player and generally does things the textbook way … Decent defender … Not really a slasher, but when he does drive he usually is efficient and knows he has a way to the hoop …
late bloomer. Played behind some guys while at Duke and also faced some adversity there. Didn't get much of a look because he was consider a 1 trick pony. Looks like he's really worked on his game. Has 1 premium skill-set (3pt shooting/FT shooting) which in the NBA can score you a job. Danny scooped him up and I think he'll get a multiple year non-guaranteed deal from Boston. He'll get called up after Thornton and/or Prince gets dealt.
Celtics4ever, the only wager that seems to make sense is Blaise Pascal's.Miami's Whiteside has come from nowhere. The Celtics could use a "phenomenal shooter who can absolutely wow you", no?Peace and love.
