“Wagler was never expected to be a one-and-done, and yet here he is, as the star freshman of a Final Four team,” O’Connor writes. “There’s a chance Wagler goes much higher than this, but if he lands with Dallas it’s hard to imagine a better situation. Kyrie Irving is a different style point guard, but could teach the intricacies of finishing below the rim. They could complement each other in the short-term by trading on-ball and off-ball reps. And in the long-term, Wagler could ascend alongside a superstar in Cooper Flagg.”
