Lamelo is more creativity and imagination than actual execution, like a Westbrook. He is a walking highlight reel when those wild passes do connect, but you don't wanna be there when they results in ugly TOs.

There are plenty of negatives with Queen. I wouldnt want him with the Jazz's pick. He's a Sophomore aged Freshman, but the talent is obvious and can be translatable, especially if he develops his shot.
I watched a little bit of the Michigan game just now, unfortunately it wasn't a good one for Wolf.

In shoes, barefoot, I don't care. Queen is a classic case of a guy adding two inches to his height because he knows he's drastically undersized for his position in the NBA. When you're that unathletic, you need all the imaginary inches you can get.
Did you miss the part where I called him a "great" college player? I like watching strange, skilled players. Hell, some of them even make it to the league. Queen just doesn't have a pro position. I think we all know he's not a 5 in the NBA, he's total non-shooter and he can't stay with anyone out on the perimeter. Also, the amount of on-ball stuff he does at Maryland would never happen in the pros, and outside of that... what does he even do?
Queen is not the first skilled ballhandling and passing college "big" who will struggle in the pro world.
I know Egor is struggling to score, but I still like his film:

This is an extremely impressive performance from CMB.

I’m not even sure Lamelo is playing the sport of basketball out there lol.
Something that gives me a lot of comfort with Kas is that he is a complete foul merchant. It’s what allows him to have good games even when he’s shooting poorly. He’s the prototypical athletic down hill guard….but he’s still able to put a ton of pressure on the rim and score with incredible efficiency.

He becomes very interesting if he can transition his game to the perimeter. He's got a good combination of skill level, size and enough athleticism to be impactful. Measurements are going to matter though. Like, I hope he doesn't measure out at 6'5". The other thing, obviously, is hoping his shooting improves several points.

Im guessing Harper is dealing with some kind of nagging injury? An absolute stinker of a game from him and Ace in a surprisingly close matchup vs MSU
Sanon is still shooting a crazy % from 3.
Harper had an ankle injury, was a game time decision, ended up coming in to the game for a little bit, and then couldn't finish the game.
If it was the NBA I don't think he plays at all. Just kind of a weird situation.

It was at MSG so I’m sure he didn’t want to just sit out but he was definitely nowhere near himself.
Another fun game right now for North Carolina going in to overtime right now. Jackson had a microwave scoring stretch to get North Carolina back in the game. Powell with some impressive defense.
College basketball is great.

Donovan Dent currently has 30 against UNLV on the road. Wouldn't mind him with the Minnesota pick
Didnt watch, but Tre Johnson went ballistic in the 2nd half. To me he is clearly heads and shoulders above VJ as a prospect.
Scored 30, including 4/10 on 3PAs and 10/10 on FTAs. Nice to see him get to the line. He also had 4 assists and 3 stocks. He scored 15 pts in the final 6:30 to help pull out a win.
He's started playing on the ball for more possessions recently. Hopefully, the Jazz stay in the top 5.

Collin Murray-boyles with 12 rebs, 4 stls, 2 blks to go with 10 pts. He's averaging 2.7 stls and 1.2 blks over his last 5 games.
VJ seems to have found his 3pt shot, so that helps with his limited offensive feel.
Just saw Sorber's stat line:
25 pts, 15 reb, 5 stocks.
Hit 2 threes and had 2 assists as well.
