Admittedly, I don't know much about this player, so I'll wait and see how he develops.
I mean, if you know nothing about this player how can you infer that it is 'big for the sake of big'?

Tre has no track record of doing this and I doubt he woke up this morning and decided to change is philosophy. The kid isn't even that big... 6'3 209 lbs, sure it is on the bigger side, but by no means is he a beast.

I think the issue is fans undervalue stay at home defensemen. If he had big offensive upside I doubt we'd be hearing this 'they drafted him for size only' narrative.
