Dion Waiters has always been able to make his presence known and never been overshadowed by super stars. But Waiters has not lived up to his potential and his performance has yet to match his confidence level.
Nickname: "Waiters Island," "Dion Freaking Waiters," "Kobe Wade" (this one has yet to become official but I think we should all honor his wish.)
True Dion Waiters story from his Cuse days: he considered his game a combo of Kobe and Dwayne Wade so he had teammates call him Kobe Wade.
