“You watched the Olympics, he’s very versatile,” credited Pelicans point guard Jose Alvarado, the Puerto Rican Olympic team’s top player. “He can pop, he can make threes, but he also knows when to shoot them, when not to shoot them. He’s a smart player out there. He knows what to do at the right time.” “He’s an extremely high-level IQ basketball player,” Pelicans head coach Willie Green said. “You don’t have to tell him a lot – he figures it out on the fly. Spacing, where to be defensively. I think he’s going to be a huge component to our team. He’s fit in seamlessly.”
