Walter Clayton Jr. Hype Thread

I am not saying he'll be great, but I don't get why everyone these days dismisses "undersized" guards. Here is a list of current NBA guards Walter's size or smaller: Steph Curry, Chris Paul, Mike Conley, Kyrie Irving, Jalen Brunson, Damian Lillard, Kyle Lowry, Drue Holiday... not to mention a bunch of retired hall of famers...

Did you notice that almost all of the small guards you listed were very high picks and did not stay in college for 4 years? They simply had way more talent and their talent was very obvious at a very young age. WCJ does not belong to that group. Of course, we can hope that Clayton on the path of Brunson but players like Brunson are very, very rare.

Clayton going to be the starter sooner or later

This high on Walt:

I think what the Jazz want is to bring in a big guard or wing who initiates, which then makes either Keyonte or WCJ more of an off-ball player and secondary playmaker. Obviously, Darryn Peterson would be amazing.

Completely agree with this. Peterson/Ace/Lauri/Brice/X would be insane offense.
