Should Drake Powell have stayed at UNC?

First things first: this sort of question tends to generate answers based on one of two perspectives: what we as fans would prefer for our own viewing pleasure versus what we as fans think is the best outcome for one of our own. Both are valid perspectives, up to a point.

Last season as a rookie, Powell demonstrated the athleticism, skills, and grit to defend at the NBA level, a major reason he landed in the NBA Draft's first round at pick 22. Everyone knew, and Drake embraced, the need to develop an offensive skill set that would force NBA defenses in turn to respect him on the other end of the floor. As a rookie, he averaged 21 minutes in 63 appearances, contributing 6.5 points with 47.3% eFG%. Drake shot 28% from three last season on 182 attempts, mostly as a spot-up threat.
