I think he could be right if Trey plays up to his talents. I always thought Cal could have done a better job of using his talents more but with that team he had so many options it was scary.
NBA draft analyst Ed Isaacson understands why so many teams like 6-10 Trey Lyles of Kentucky.
“Trey Lyles has a nice looking shot and it is a matter of being able to say there is a lot to work with here and it will just take a little bit of time,” said Isaacson.
Isaacson admits he probably criticized Lyles at times during UK’s season because he played out of position at small forward rather than his likely NBA position of power forward.
“But in some ways it really did help him, especially with his ability to put the ball on the floor,” the NBA analyst said. “You are looking at a guy 6-10 with tremendous skills.
“He may not be the greatest athlete, but you could see his understanding of the game grow from the start of the year to the Final Four. And what he can bring to a team is incredible. Once a coach gets his hands on him ... he may not be a guy who contributes much right away but long term I would not be surprised if he has the best NBA career of any Kentucky player (in this year’s draft) by the time his career is done.”
