Nick brings Metcalf on the show to talk about Metcalf's recent article on Tidjane Salaun. They start out by talking about starting out the scouting process with the positives for a prospect and general draft philosophy before diving deep into Salaun's game on both ends of the floor. They talk at length about his offense, including his solid off-ball skill set and potential areas for improvement.
