Looking Forward
Griffin is one of the youngest players in this class and is a step behind in terms of developmental time. Playing for a Duke team with championship aspirations, AJ won’t get as much leeway to display his full compliment of skills. I believe he can improve as a creator. His defense should improve at the next level, with more exposure to professional coaching. He can step into the NBA tomorrow as a high-end, connector-type player with high upside.
