Agreed. Though a lot of that lack of aggressiveness, I think, stems from him being the last option in the offense on a team with good vets. Fox, Huerter, Monk, Barnes, Davion, TD and Domas are all capable of driving and kicking to open shooters so there's no reason for him to force anything. If he's open, he shoots it and if he's not he swings it. As his role increases in the next few years and some of those vets move on I think we'll see a lot more of the post-ups and dribble drive moves from Keegan that he used in college. And that will also bring more assists and offensive rebounds. He's doing exactly what we need him to do as a rookie -- focus on his shooting and defense and let the other elements of the game come in time. The ROY award is essentially meaningless -- Banchero will probably win it and I don't care, as long as we make the playoffs.
It's a feel good story for bad franchises to have the rookie of the year, but outside of generational talents like Durant, Duncan, and LeBron, it doesn't guarantee future individual success, let alone team success.
