I thought when he decided to go to the G League instead of come to Michigan that he was a legit first round pick with hopes of working into the lottery.

“Of the Ignite's big four, Todd had the lowest expectations coming in. Interest is growing, however, now that the 6'10" forward is 6-of-13 from behind the arc.
Scouts sound willing to buy his shooting stroke based on the short sample size of attempts. He hasn't shown much in terms of creation in the half court, but Todd has made plays with his movement and athleticism, especially on defense, sliding his feet and challenging drivers at the rim.
Convincing scouts he's a switchable big who can stretch the floor will be a draft-stock booster. At the least, Todd seems to be trending into the second-round conversation.”
