The new Hornets jerseys look sharp, Im starting to believe they could take Stauskas 9th
Good looking jerseys, but very racist. They should have had one white mannequin.

Agree on the colored jerseys.

I really like the colors more than anything else. Jersey design is mediocre outside of that IMO.
Saric is apparently going to be there as well. Interesting, perhaps a sign he wants to come over?

Lakers could move Nash and #7 to Philly for MCW and T Young. 76ers would take Exum at #3.

Crazy that the 76ers would have #3, #7, and #10. This would talk them out of the running for cavs #1 though.

I'm sure Miami would take him if he's there.

Derek Williams ?
This sounds terrible for Philly. So basically MCW and Thad for #7? Christ, what could #5 get us?
this dude had like 10ft 5 inch standing reach. i believe it.
can this kid make it to nba? i don't know. never saw him play. probably is slow as hell
what's tavares' hand length? griner probably had 10 1/2 inch length. that would be 3rd longest in the nba draft history. kareem is known 10 incher, but griner has him by 1/2 inch or so.
but 9ft 10 reach is impressive indeed.

Maybe, I dont think Bol's standing reach was 10'6 though. As long as he could control the ball with the tips of his fingers like I can with my regular sized hands, he'd most likely have been able to dunk without leaving the ground, which I dont think he was capable of. Bol's reach as evidenced by that picture was over 10' though, id say probably 10'3" max though
Like Embiid, Bol also claimed to have killed a lion, his story at-least involved a spear.
Walter can come close to dunking without leaving the ground, the first dunk on his DX scouting report is one of the finer examples ive seen of that type of dunk in-game.
Im not sure exactly of Walters handsize his hands compared to his face seem to be in Giannis type of proportion . I'd guess a legitimate 11" in length, and 12'½" from pinkie to thumb, Chad Ford quoted an Exec who said he had the biggest hands he ever saw.
The diameter of the ball is 9", I've seen pictures where it appears the length of Walters hand is engulfing that by an inch on each side.
If you actually look at him grip the ball, his wrist is several inches away from the ball.
There was a great pic of him about to block a shot that really showed his hand dwarfing the ball, im drunk and cant find that pic, so this will have to do

Tacko Fall is rated a 4 star recruit by ESPN, and hes not rated by some major scouting services, hes in the Class of 2015 and only has offers from UTEP and LaSalle from what i can see.
Apparently hes shown well at the NBPA top-100 camp in the past few days, word is 'moves well, not great for his size' , which is 7'5 270lbs, hes also expected to grow another 2" so his size may very well be a limiting factor, I wonder how his health checks out, and whats up with his vision, he seems to have a fairly serious set of glasses on.
Hes definitely a longshot to make the NBA. I can give you a solid list of 10 Four Star HS Centers rated between 40-150 in their respective classes that legitimately have a much better shot at making it.

Speaking of Vision and Glasses, Isaiah Austin has completely disappeared from DX's mock(after being in the high 30's), and dropped to 60 on NBADARFT.net
Anyone know whatsup with that?

a lotta good talent before him.
It makes sense when you consider the Lakers draft debt in future years. Don't have rebuilding window with hardly protected picks in the next years.
You could've picked that up in my Lakers draft preview
I'm surprised. Either he has been forgotten or teams have determined that having only 1 eye prevents him to become a consistent shooter ever.
At that point I'd still be surprised not to hear his name, as I think he could anchor a reserve unit defensively. Smart kid, positioning is improving, timing is good.
If Gobert was worth a late first rounder last year, Austin should be worth an early 2nd rounder this year.
Austin is a great story but don't think he can play NBA ball.
Game will be much too quick for him to handle.
Players will take advantage of his disability like every other weakness of other players.
He should get a tryout but afraid he will not be able to play at the highest level.

Its a good thing the NBA D-League is there for a player like Isaiah, he may get drafted, I think a team like the Nets would jump all over the opportunity to sign him to a guaranteed contract if Undrafted.
If undrafted the Jazz should really take a flier, He was always one of my favorite prospects tbh, though in my book his stock has plummeted this year, I always thought his game was suited for the PF position, and that itd be complimentary to Enes and Derrick. But at this point id rather take Klimenko or Nikola Jokic over him.
Austin is going to need to beat the odds by shooting the ball accurately, If he can pull it off considering his story, its going to be glorious, theres no doubt in my mind he will get looks in the NBA for a few years minimum.
