Following potential 2015 draftees

Providence should be a good game???

you buying into the Paschal Chukwu hype or? this dude is the size of Rudy Gobert, should be funny to see against UK's legion of 7'ers

i could be totally wrong but i really think UCLA will outperform expectations this year, Kevon Looney looks like a stat stuffer and eventual lottery pick.

the 2 4star guys Thomas Welsh and Jonah Bolden are pretty good, Welsh should put Tony Parker in his natural PF position to solidify the front court. Bolden looks like an NBA player, hes gotta be the most athletic 6'9" Aussie prospect yet

Marc Garcia figures to be the only '96 born International Player talked about in next years draft. I've read a few scouting reports and seen a good bit of footage on him(played with Hezonja) and im convinced hes going to be pretty damn good, hes almost automatic shooting corner 3's

6'6" with very long arms and hes a stone cold sniper off the dribble and in catch and shoot situations, his instincts are well beyond his years and hes very effective attacking closeouts, I think DX has this one right putting him in the Lottery. He and Hezonja are probably the best shooters in the 2015 Draft class

the highlights above are a mashup of a tournament that he won MVP even though his team finished 6th, one of the games he scored 46

(Btw thats Kristaps Porzingis hes laying the ball up over at 0:15, who has a 9'3" standing reach)
 
Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk commited to Kansas... and will be there for 2 years since hes not 2015 draft eligible... ****

wouldn't be eligible as an international as well.
If my memory isn't failing the 2016 class was fairly weak. Should give them more depth and quality.
 
2016 looks bigman heavy right now, imo. You now have 'Svi' but other than Malik Newman im not sure the other class of 2015 guards fit the 'one and done' bill.

maybe Luke Kennard(#13) can have a Stauskas like body transformation a year or 2 earlier and go 1 and done, its not likely though.

Tyler Dorsey(#7) doesnt wow me much more than Marcus LoVett (#41), neither did Jalen Brunson(#14) until i saw highlights of him dropping 56 on Jahlil Okafors squad in the state semi's. I doubt these players are going to interest NBA teams at PG after 1 season though

the fate of Syracuse next year will be in the hands of 6'2" four star PG (#46)Kaleb Joseph, last year i posted about Ennis even though it was presumed he was going to be a 4 year starter. Joseph doesnt scream NBA player but i think hes worth keeping an eye on following in the footsteps of Ennis and MCW... Boeheim really likes him

Chris McCullough their 5 star guy is really raw but quite the specimen, hes like 6'9" with track speed, the next in line of tweeners from Cuse not sure what he contributes next year though.

they're overmatched by Duke and UNC in the ACC but could play the role of spoiler

I cant make up my mind if i think Lyles is going to be 1 and done, if he steady improves his conditioning at UK id definitely say yes, obviously playing time will be a big factor.

hes 2-3 inches taller but theres something about the way he moves in his postup/faceup game that reminds me of Carmelo..
 
U know he's not a PG, right?

He may have the most upside.. I don't doubt that. But I question his fortitude.

The fact that he went to Texas solidified his fate..

Getting bounced early in the tourny as well as being a top-5 pick.
 
Karl Towns will end up being a top-3 player in this class as well. Kentucky getting him is an underrated move, #9 is selling Towns way too short.
 
This upcoming season should be epic for UK.

Harrison's.. back
WCS.. back

Really extremely early big board for 2015:

1. Myles Turner
2. Karl Towns Jr.
3. Jahil Okafor
4. Emmanuel Mudiay
5. Stanley Johnson
6. Cliff Alexander
7. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson
8. Justise Winslow
9. Mario Hezonja
10. WCS

Guys like LeVert and C. Walker will have pretty good seasons. Not the highest on Kelly Oubre like everyone else.
