That's only true if you're not considering the asset's future. Being a Canes fan, you obviously realize there's a ceiling people are hoping for in Hanifin that is much higher than what Pesce provides. He was drafted 5th overall in a stacked draft for a reason. And if you're comparing the two players this season, I'm not sure you can make the argument for Pesce even today. Last season Pesce was obviously the better player, but Hanifin has taken huge strides this season. He's facing much tougher competition and his advanced stats are great. Plus he's still only 21 so it's only going to get better. I'm guessing if you created a going forward poll on Hanifin vs Pesce, you would not like the results.
Pesce and Hanifin entered the league in the exact same year and are 2 years apart in age. Interesting mindset to consider one peaked and one with vast future potential.
