Whether Hezonja is more of a SG or SF isn't really relevant to me. Let's just call him a wing player. It was the "defensively suspect" part of the equation that accounts for my disapproval. Because if Hezonja is an elite athlete who can shoot the lights out, handle the ball pretty well for his size, and occasionally competes on defense than he's just the bigger, taller version of Jimmer Fredette (shooter, ballhandler, playmaker, defensive question mark) or Nik Stuaskas (shooter, ballhandler, playmaker, defensive question mark). I know that Jimmer was drafted by Petrie and Nik was drafted by Vivek/Mullin/D'Alessandro but how many times do you need to repeat the same mistake before you try something new?
I don't want another elite "athlete" or "shooter" in the top half of the lottery, I want a basketball player. And to be a basketball player you need two things: (1) to compete hard every night on both ends of the court and (2) to be physically gifted enough to play your position against other NBA athletes. There are roles for other types of players, but those guys are specialists. I don't care how well a guy shoots the ball, I'll take a basketball player over a specialist every time.
