It’s now Shaedon Sharpe’s third NBA season. It hasn’t been ideal because Scoot Henderson is so young and Scoot is who Portland relies on to get Sharpe the ball. Henderson has been coming off the bench this season, which means Anfernee Simons has been the point guard. I view Simons as a shooting guard. At best, he’s a shoot-first point guard. Simons is a very good player, but he’s not ideal for Sharpe’s development as long as he plays point guard. Hopefully next year we see Henderson, Simons, and Sharpe at the 1, 2, and 3. 1/1/2025
