The Wade Baldwin conundrum

With the 17th pick of the 2016 NBA Draft, the Memphis Grizzlies selected Wade Baldwin IV out of Vanderbilt. It was known that he was going to need a little bit of polishing, but would hopefully develop into a solid back up point guard behind Mike Conley. However, Baldwin has fallen out of favor behind Andrew Harrison and recently signed Toney Douglas, despite Conley going down to a back injury.

What’s the problem?

As noted by Ian Pierno, Wade came out of college seemingly a good shooter and passer.
