Coming out of his rookie year, in which he started the final ten games of the regular season and all six postseason games, expectations were high for Prince in his sophomore campaign. He was drafted No. 12 overall in 2016 with the hopes that he would develop into the prototypical 3-and-D wing the Atlanta Hawks have craved for years; at 6-foot-8 and 220 pounds with a 7-foot wingspan coming out of Baylor, Prince was the ideal fit for the modern NBA. Defensive versatility was the name of the game with Prince and if Hawk University could coax out a workable three-point shot, he would be a rotation player for years to come.
