Justise Winslow
SF, 6’7, 225lbs, 21 years old, 2 years of experience
It’s been a slow start for Winslow; underwhelming on one end as a rookie, similarly underwhelming for 18 games as a sophomore, then suffering a season-ending injury to his shoulder. It was known that a lot of offensive work would be needed and that his greatest virtues lay defensively, where he is already a pretty fearless man-to-man defender, big and strong, quick and driven. It cannot be overlooked, however, that the offensive skills are very poor at this stage. Winslow is young, but he hasn’t developed due to the shoulder, which essentially wrote off an important year in his development.
Player Plan: Two years of rookie scale salary contract. Certainly worth keeping and developing for those two years, but the outcome is far from certain after this slow start.
