This Kurucs dude looks pretty good too. Looks like he has some long arms and above average athleticism.

It's just hard to find any information on Kurucs as far as draft profiles on him. I guess because he plays on Barcelona's development team not a ton of people have seen enough to really evaluate him. His frame looks great for his age, only 19. He could put a lot of muscle on and potentially be a stretch 4 type if he has the toughness.

Anigbogu (there's always a place for a beast)

Lydon (I might be the only one who prefers Lydon, but he's a real shooter with underrated athleticism, think athletic Ryan Anderson)

Mitchell

Hartenstein (I'm probably underrating Rabb, but Hartenstein could be a beast, like Steven Adams who can actually play)

Swanigan (just knows how to play)

Paseniks (don't know these guys well, but I don't see Rudy's competitive desire and swagger in Jeanne yet)

Wilson

Don't care

Don't care

The thing about Pasecniks vs Jeanne is that Paseniks is 1.5 years older than Jeanne. That's what makes it kind of hard for me. Jeanne seems to have more potential, but Pasecniks looks like he can physically compete in the NBA whereas there are questions if Jeanne ever fills out.
 
Rudy's put a ton of work in on his body and his game. He has a lot of drive. Jeanne could be very good, but he'll have to do nearly the same.
 
I also don't know what to think about Giles. His college numbers were so pedestrian, and I'm not sure what he's going to be great at.
 
Harry Giles - have to take a flyer on the potential talent

TJ Leaf - I hate myself for saying a leaf but he has more upside then lydon

Luke Kennard - gotta go with the shooter of the athlete

Isaiah Hartenstein - has waaaaaaaay more upside then rabb.

Bam Adebayo - only because i worry about swanigans family still living in utah.

Jonathan Jeanne - honsetly with rudy as a mentor Jeanne has a ton of upside

DJ Wilson - dont know either well enough but Wilson seems like the name for the moment

Nigel Hayes - i hate the utes

PJ Dozier - Dozier can be special with his size

Josh Hart - I am a huge hart fan and think he will have a long career in the NBA wont be great but a contributor

I think jeanne has filled out some this year. What I look at is rudy being Jeannes mentor. That could be special

Are they though? Gobert weighed 240 when he was drafted.

Jeanne currently sits at 209.

That's a picture of Gobert when he was with his French Club team, Cholet. He is skinny, but he has some trunks on him. Not rail thin legs.

Jeanne has toothpicks for legs.
 
i wouldn't mind seeing the jazz swing for the fences with this Diallo kid. besides the length and athleticism, he has a nice looking shooting stroke. but its his length and athleticism that sets him apart and they appear to be elite.
