Or maybe he meant understand.
No, he meant understate.

Here's a good prop bet.
Will Harry Giles score more than 102 points in his first NBA season?
He certainly may! ESPN mock draft 3.3 Harry Giles going # 11

Giles remains the trickiest prospect in the draft to evaluate. He's playing anywhere from seven to 18 minutes a game. When he plays 14 minutes or more, good things seem to happen in flashes. But overall, he still doesn't look like the Giles we saw in high school. It will be hard for teams to draft him over some of the less talented but less risky players above him.
I don't think the Heat (or Wolves, for that matter) should pass on him, though. His upside is as high as anyone's in the draft. He's shaking off a lot of rust right now, but when he gets fully healthy, he has superstar potential.
If the Heat can grab him here, they'll be thrilled. His work ethic and toughness fit Miami's culture perfectly. In a year or two, this pick could be the steal of the draft.
I'll go over. I'm thinking he drops to the late first round to a good team who can take a (big) risk, and he gets a lot of garbage 4th quarter points.
is it wrong to hope he is the last guy sitting in the green room? i feel like his father deserves that.
Yes. Apparently his knee tendons and ligaments have the potential to be just as good as his old ones. I don't know how an NBA front office can see that from watching tape but...Never estimate the stupidity of nba front offices. Giles is going top 15.

I hope he doesn't get drafted.
By my quick count, there were 38 rookies who scored more than 102 points this year.
The under folks are counting on limited minutes, NBDL time, and/or injuries I think. If he's getting 5-10 minutes a game for anywhere close to 70 games, of course he'll get there.

I'll take the under. Not many Dukies improve relative to their peers after they leave Durham.
