Andrew Carleton is legit

I keep trying to tell myself to calm down, that we don’t need to depend on him, that he should use his first year as a pro to learn and develop physically and learn the speed of the game. After all, other kids his age are just getting their first jobs as well (albeit PART TIME) as grocery clerks or burger flippers. Surely there’s an adjustment period that has to happen.

But damn if he doesn’t look like he belongs. He just took the field amongst men and didn’t just “fit in,” he was the best player on the field.
