Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr believes that James Wiseman can follow a growth path similar to Phoenix Suns big man DeAndre Ayton.

“The most interesting thing has been watching Deandre Ayton. I talk to James and text him. I’m just so inspired by what Ayton has been able to do, and I think there’s no reason why James can’t follow that same path. (The Suns) really streamlined his game.
“You think back to a couple of years ago and he was kind of all over the map. You could tell how gifted he was, but you weren’t exactly sure what he was. They’ve figured it out. I’m watching Ayton quite a bit, and I’m thinking a lot about how we can use James and simplify the game and make him really effective for us next year”.
Wiseman, the No.2 pick of the 2020 NBA Draft, ended his rookie season with 11.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 0.9 blocks per game, shooting 52% from the field and 63% from the foul line.
