So he's played more than 40,000 minutes not counting international play. He has a bad back and leg and because he's looked good for 2 weeks there is no reason to think he might have some aging issues over the course of the three years?

also- him being worse than his (insane) peak and him still being #1 in this draft are not mutually exclusive.
It is when there are other top players who are super young still and also having historically unreal seasons for their ages.
