Other than that outlier 6th ranking from EliteProspects you are correct, but I’m curious to see where he ranks with the major publications in final rankings after his playoff performance. It’s not just the name, he’s showing he can dominate and raise his game in the playoffs. I suspect he’s got a lot more room to rise up the rankings still.
How much have you watched him play? Is it possible you are just as guilty of dismissing him because of his last name as you are accusing others of favouring him for it? He is, in my opinion, a legitimate top 10 prospect for 2024 and I could see him getting selected anywhere from 5-10
