He needs to wake up - he's killed my fantasy team two games straight.

RE: Will Barton becoming true NBA star-
I don't think Will is a star. Not even close. He's becoming a guy who may be able to stick in the league because he's a solid, improving player.

May be able to stick in league? December averages (after coach started giving him major minutes and offensive freedom).
December: 32.9 mpg, 7.8-16.5 fg .472 fg%, 2.3-5.9 3pt .393 3pt %, 2.9-3.5 FTs .827 FT%, 6.8 Reb, 3.1 assists, 0.3 blks, 0.9 steals, 20.8 ppg
I think he might squeeze by......Especially since he just signed a 3 year GUARANTEED $11M plus contract.

And that's great and very true but it's a small window. Doesn't make him a star, yet. That's my point. I love the guy and think he's on his way to a nice career but he's not a star. Not yet at least.

You said "He's becoming a guy who may be able to stick in the league because he's a solid, improving player." ; to say he MAY be able to stick in league shows your ignorance when he already has guaranteed money at close to $4M per year through his 6th year in league and most NBA analysts are very impressed with him. Guess you know more than they do.
His season numbers are better than many guys on Grizz making way more than his new contract.

Ignorance? That's funny.
He's an improving player but nowhere near a star. I hope he becomes one though.

Yea. He's on his second NBA contract, raking in millions, averaging big minutes and double-digit points. He may stick.

Absolutely, but he's not a "true NBA star" - not yet at least.

I said I think he will be a star; you said HE MAY STICK. Hell of a difference.
