Could Justise Winslow’s ceiling be Washington’s Otto Porter?

I’m often asked what I think Justise Winslow’s ceiling is or might be, and it’s easy to fall back on the common draft-day comparisons to Kawhi Leonard, or Miami Heat president Pat Riley’s comparison to Draymond Green. If you squint, you can see the similarities between Winslow and those two All-Stars, but the comparison is born out of hope. Because I’m asked so much about what I think Winslow’s ceiling is or might be, I decided to actually think about it.

And I think Winslow’s ceiling is or could be Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter.

Porter had equally high (if not higher) expectations thrust upon him since being drafted third overall by the Washington Wizards in 2013.
