Not necessarily.  This reminds me of when Dion refused to work out for anyone and suddenly he started flying up draft boards as a result because everyone assumed it meant that he received a promise.  Skipping the 5 on 5 generates more interest in him because it makes other teams think "Interesting; one of the other teams out there already loves him...we need to take a closer look".

At any rate, I'm hoping it isn't my team that's showing a lot of interest in him despite Milwaukee's need for shooting.  I think he has some potential, but I don't really like him as a prospect.

In terms of Syracuse, I understand that losing his 3 point shooting ability could be a big deal, and it's a shame that we'll never get to see what he could have been for Syracuse, but it's not as if he was an efficient scorer, and he didn't really do anything else for us besides score.  I don't think the freshman version of him is as irreplaceable as others believe and we simply don't know how much better if any the sophomore version of him would be.
