Following Potential 2018 Draftees

[Miggs]

I saw him play in the NCAAs in Boise. He could benefit from another year in college or the DLeague. He would be the 1st NBA player from Kimball, Neb

No doubt. I’m curious what a great diet/workout regime and coaching could do for a kid like this.

Mike Daum isn't a nba player.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Mike Daum has no chance of playing the 4. He'd be a 5 who would get killed in every facet of defense.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I know this is sacrilege but I kind of like how grayson Allen has been playing in the tournament. They have him playing PG a lot and he is doing well getting the ball where it needs to go. I wouldn't draft him until the mid to late 20s but you could do a lot worse in this draft.

You could also do better, much better. Don't draft Allen in any round.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

No idea about practice.

Why would it be dumb to trade him if he's only ever going to be a backup to Gobert? Backup 5's are easy to find imo. But if trading him helps us move up say three to five spots and land one of the Bridges or something, don't we have to do it?

 

[Game6Conley]

I definitely buy that he grew an inch..

Here we go!!! major draft implications in this Duke-KU matchup. I hope Malik Newman torches em.

Did Zhaire Smith and Mikal Bridges match up much?

Not really both had strong showings though. Smith was leading them in rebounding for most of the game.

 

[Game6Conley]

Svi has guarded and boxed out Bagley successfully a few times now in the opening 13 minutes...

Nightmare start for Wendell Carter even tho they have the lead. He's had some bad luck and De Souza dropped a vicious elbow right on his face earlier.

 

[Eminence]

Newman was a monster. And yeah, I love Daum, great kid, was in one of the first classes I ever taught, don't see an NBA player though.

Both brothers have the handles of a guard, their true triple-threat players... He's a 6'7" swingman. I've caught a lot of Nevada games the past 2 seasons. I am a big fan of the Mountain West conference.

Thanks AB. That was my impression of the twins. Have you heard what their wingspan's are? Also do you consider them to be pretty athletic? Or just average in terms of athleticism?

My guesstimate is their wingspans are like 6'10ish..

I consider them athletic for sure, but i'd say it's almost best demonstrated when they have the ball in their hands, their good at this sort of stop-and-start and change direction type of thing, I consider that to be athletic, cuz it is, many people associate athletic with classic jump out of the gym or strong as an ox or fast or laterally quick, athletic..

Word is Trevon Duval's headed to the NBA. Who knows how long this lasts but there's rumblings Wendell Carter could return to showcase for the top-5 next season...

Wendell Carter should leave now and try to get up higher through targeted workouts and killing it at the combine. Not worth the risk of another unpaid season when he’s likely a top 10 pick anyways.

He's getting paid.

 

[Coach Ellis]

He's getting paid.

Not like a rookie contract would. Also, if you can get picked in the lottery, you should go as soon as you’re able to. That way you get to your 2nd contract a year sooner. No sense in delaying a potential $100 million dollar playday.

Daum has a nice skillset, but he's fat. Warming up to Zhaire Smith.
