George: Seeing Butler s shadow in Edgecomb He is destined to be a top player

July 12th July Recently, 76ers player Paul George talked about 76ers rookie Edgecom in the show "PodcastP".

George said: "He showed a very high level on both sides of the offense and defense. It was great to watch him transition from college basketball to the NBA level of space utilization. Whether it was mid-range, insight into the defense gap, out-of-three-point line or conversion offense. When players stepped into the NCAA, the change in space means everything."

Then George said: "He perfectly demonstrated these qualities and shone with real star potential. I especially appreciate the calmness and patience he showed in the pick-and-roll, which is particularly rare for non-point guard rookies. He changed his rhythm and used screens to slowly In doubt, straight killing the basket, connecting and turning and jump shots, every move is full of control. The Sixers made him end the decision of Summer United early, completely reasonable."

Finally, George said: "This is the Bulldog. Watching him play reminds me of Butler when he was young, the same movement method and the same mid-range aggressiveness. There are too many shadows of Butler in his game, and he is destined to be a top player."

In the summer league game in Salt Lake City on July 6, Edgecom played well. He made 13 of 26, 1 of 6 three-pointers, 1 of 3 free throws, scored 28 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks. But the 76ers still lost to the Jazz 89-93.
