Hustle player with good instincts and grew up around NBA basketball who's only getting better at scoring. Not to mention he balled out at the combine. People will look back in 5 years and be mad their team passed on him.
Thank you Devin Carter! He’s willed Providence to where it is. I hope he have an amazing career, and I trust he will have an amazing career. He works so hard, and can improve on the few things he’s bad at. He might take some bad shots, but he also does so much good for providence. His shots fall when they seem like they’re not supposed to. So I want the best for him, and I will be a fan of whatever team he’s on. Go Providence! #Mindset
In offense I'm getting Aaron Holiday trying to do too much vibes from his clip, though he seems like a tenacious defender. Probably a team like Magic or 76ers will draft him.
I think Carter will benefit from a more scaled down offensive role in the NBA, but he has some upside with his athleticism, potential shooting, and toughness. If his 3-pointer falls back to below average, that’ll be a problem. I have much fewer doubts about him on defense.
If The Miami Heat Trade For Another Draft Pick, I Want Them To Draft Zach Edey & Devin Carter Or Jared McCain In The First Round & Draft Justin Edwards In The Second Round, Zach Edey Is A Great Fit Next To Bam Adebayo & Devin Carter Or Jared McCain Is A Great Fit Next To Terry Rozier And Patty Mills, And Justin Edwards Is Also A Great Fit At Shooting Guard For The Heat Culture And A Great Tyler Herro Replacement 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯😎😎😎
He'd be a solid fit, though I wonder whether his three-pointer can be truly trusted. If not, then the Magic are getting yet another ballhandler who can't space the floor. Still, I like Carter in Orlando, though not as much as some other teams.
He just screams, being one of the best POA defenders in the NBA. If his playmaking is his biggest weakness as a guard, so basically, he just needs to be paired with allstar guard or big that has most of the attention or be in a great system that doesn't require him being the lead initiator. I must say, as a Mavericks fan. He'll definitely benefit playing next to Luka. Carter will definitely have highest quality shots here in Dallas lol
I agree with everything you said. One note to add on top of this - I think these sorts of "third guard" or off-ball combo prospects are going to become much more prevalent to complement the bigger, primary initiator wings that are commonplace in the NBA (think Doncic but also the likes of Jayson Tatum, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, LeBron, you could say Shai because of his size...)
@@FloorandCeiling I agree. And I was thinking his best comparison is Marcus smart who was very successful playing with the Celtics, playing next to Tatum 👀 And seeing more of his physical traits, Carter seems more athletic, fast, has longer wingspan, on top with his great rebounding. I think he can be better than Smart!
@@FloorandCeiling that’ll be a while. He’s worth a look even if just for the views you’ll get. Search his name. Ppl want to see him. Those vids have views
He does not handle the ball well. He is not a good shooter (despite his good three-point percentage). He doesn't make, many times, the best decisions. But, always in my team. This kid is pure intensity, he doesn't sit still for a second. A worthy son of his father (Anthony Carter), a street player as a teenager, but with 13 seasons in the NBA (and 7 uncles in prison).
Devin Carter is definitely someone his teammates should love to play with. The key for him, I think, will be making sure he stays in the mid/high 30s from three, rather than the low 30s. If he can manage that, then he can push the ball in transition, drive against scrambling defense, cut into open spaces, rebound the hell out of the ball, etc.
I absolutely do not trust his ability to shoot off the dribble, and he's especially suspect in the mid-range suggesting it's a bit of an overhand touch/rhythm thing. I think he's a pure C&S guy at the NBA level who will likely get a good amount of open looks and will shoot around 35% in the league. I see a Craig Porter Jr. type of player, with the upside to be a Marcus Smart level defensive guard if he can improve his handle and playmaking ability. I strictly see him as a late first early 2nd type of prospect, personally I much prefer what Trey Alexander offers as a more versatile and effective offensive threat on top of the fact that Trey is also a pretty good defender as well.
I agree with your concern. Like I mentioned in the video, it's not easy to trust that Carter will shoot from deep in the high 30s rather than in the low 30s, plus he's not reliable from the midrange at all. Still, he's a willing and versatile shooter who has enough athleticism and toughness to hold up offensively, while having a real option at translating defensively and with some rebounding and switchability. That puts him in my top 20.
Would be a great pick-up. It's a fit I like for Carter. Plus, he went to high school in Miami-Dade County and his dad, Anthony Carter, played for the Heat and later became a player development coach for the team.
I've said it in other comments, but I appreciate Carter's fit with Miami and it'd finally give the team more of a younger (but still experienced) guard. I also like him for the Pelicans, Sixers, or Knicks.
He's right in that late lotto range right now, but I actually think his best fits are right after the lottery to either Miami or Philly. Thanks for watching!
Heck of a finisher. If Killian Hayes could finish at the rack like that, he would still be in the NBA. This guy is an 8 to 10 year professional. Bookmarked.
