Is Markus Howard just a gunner at the NBA level?

After the 2020 NBA Draft, the Denver Nuggets were still searching for scoring guard depth. They had selected R.J. Hampton as a possible addition to the core, along with Zeke Nnaji as a role playing big man. Still, they sought out another microwave scorer in the draft. Rather than spending another draft pick (that they didn’t have), they waited until the end of the draft to add Markus Howard as a college free agent. The four-year Marquette product scored a ton of points in college and was one of the best scores in NCAA history.
