It's always fun to hear a national NBA analysts praise the San Antonio Spurs or individual players, and that just happened with Dylan Harper. The second overall pick drew widespread praise for his play during the NBA Cup Finals, with him looking nothing like a rookie.
Harper drilled a career-high five threes, even though he was just shooting 28% from distance entering the game and finished several terrific drives to the rim. As a result, The Ringers' Bill Simmons, who has repeatedly sung Harper's praises, took to comparing him to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and even Kobe Bryant due to him footwork.
