His shooting seems to have fallen apart since people were excited about his shot to start the season.  Still small sample size.

Okoro can defend his man and that doesn't show up as a counting stat and isn't truly reflected in PER.  That said, the rest of his game is pretty terrible.  

Per36 2.1 rebounds for example.  Compare that to Brandon Goodwin at 3.6 or Kevin Huerter at 4.8 or Cam Reddish at 5.8.  

But it has only been 7 games so way, way too early to draw meaningful conclusions about how good he is and whether he will develop.

This was always going to be one of those drafts where the talent wasn't concentrated at the top.

Right, he is a rookie. Its his first month. Remember Trae or Cam's first month let alone first 7 games lol
