Is Zach Lavine the Wolves' PG of the future?

[Panic!]

The Wolves have been playing Andrew Wiggins at SG all year. And because of his frame, he’s not strong enough to play SF. The problem is, there is another sophomore ready to start for the team. Rubio has been inconsistent, and the team might be looking for another PG. Zach Lavine averages 4.8apg and 2.9 TOpg per 36 minutes. When given the chance, can he be the team’s point guard of the future?

I think so. He's got a lot of talent. Definitely more bounce and quickness than just about anyone he will see on the court, and he also has a jump shot that is coming along nicely. I like him a lot.

I see Zach as more of a 6th man type at this point

 

[47th oG]

Don't think so

 

[BNC]

He's a 2 guard

He's a 2 guard

So is Westbrook.

He has a way to go, but I believe he can be

So is Westbrook.

Lavine isn't as good as Westbrook so he can't get away with playing like it

Per 36 minutes at 20 years old:

Lavine 19.7ppg 4.4rpg 4.7apg 2.8TOpg

Westbrook 16.9ppg 5.4rpg 5.9apg 3.7TOpg

That's a broad statement though.lol levine is no westy. He may have a shot at being a decent tweener guard, but I can't see him thriving at point.

Russ wasn't as good at 20 either. What's your point? I get that this is about the future but it's a pretty bold prediction to suggest Lavine will get to where RW is now.

And like you said RW isn't a pg, I'm not sure where you're going with this

 

[Jimmy Hoosiers]

A typical Panic prediction
