Eh, assist to turnover ratio. The Kings need a STAR. NOT JUST A PG. I think this year has proven all that needs to be known about that considering the pile of PG's they've run through, lol. If a PG happens to be the star then dandy. So far, not really seeing it although there are some good players there.
Peterson isn't a PG. He's a scoring guard who has some playmaking ability. I definitely expected to see more of that side of his game than he's shown so far this season, but he's a #1 scoring option just like Dybantsa and should be viewed in that light.
Part of it is he plays at Kansas. They have always looked at players that fit his mold. Someone like Ochai Agbaji. Prototypical SG's is their thing. Can he be more? I guess we'll find out eventually. Bottom line he can navigate pick and roll. Whether a player does that as a scorer or passer doesn't matter if they're elite at it and he appears to be. It's the ceiling that counts, if he can learn to pass out of it then those Kobe comps start becoming reality. If not, he's still a 20+ scorer that defenses won't be able to stop during certain stretches and that can play within the context of a spread offense and movement system.
