Will Jaylen Brown's small hands limit his ceiling?

This question was raised by one of my readers, and it was a good one. While large hand size has been a true asset for many NBA stars, will Jaylen Brown's relatively small hands prove to be a limiting factor in his performance and ceiling?

My quick answer to my question is, yes it will - but only slightly. After all, Kevin Durant and Anthony Davis have thrived in the NBA with small hands. Both can not palm a basketball, and Davis' hands were measured at a 9-inch length and 8.
