Sean Highkin: "(Shaedon Sharpe)’s the most talented player on the entire roster. The athleticism, the dunks, the highlights, he's gotten more efficient as a shooter year over year. He has the physical tools to be a really elite defender. But the issue has been general effort and focus. Last season, the day that their second-half run started, Chauncey (Billups) told us he was moving Shaedon to the bench and putting Kris Murray in the starting lineup. He said publicly he hadn't liked the way Shaedon had been engaged on defense. Shaedon responded, won his job back, but it's kind of come and gone since then. If you put Scoot (Henderson)'s attitude, mentality, and work ethic in his body, he would be Anthony Edwards."
