2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Douchebag K]

I know zero about college ball and draft stuff. Who are the top 3-4 shooters likely to be in our range ??

I’m assuming that if Ainge sees players in terms of playing in the playoffs shooting is what they will prioritise?

I don’t know if he’s in play for 16 and likely will be gone by 28.

Walker vs Hendricks in Indiana tomorrow. I would love to be a fly on the wall for that one.

Thank god for the Pacers and how willing they are to post draft content about who is working out for them.

I read somewhere today that Hendrix and Walker would both be in Indiana tomorrow, but not at the same time. Both solo.

Dick/Hawkins/Jett

For context, JHS has a better pull-up 3P percentage (37% on 54 3PA) than premium shooters like Brandon Miller (33% on 76 3PA), Sensabaugh (26% on 31 3PA), Whitehead (36% on 22 3PA), Jett Howard (30% on 63 3PA), Jordan Hawkins (31% on 58 3PA), and Keyonte George (35% on 99 3PA).

Basically, the only lottery-caliber shooter in this draft with better pull-up 3P shooting is Gradey Dick, who shot a scorching 53.5% but only on 43 pull-up 3PA

Oh, that's crazy. JHS is a better pullup shooter than 2/3rds of the players you consider the best shooters yet you say he can't shoot.

I bet Hendricks is the guy working out solo only.

Here's GG Jackson smoking a blunt while Tyrese Halliburton coaches him up at the Pacers workout today.

Did you see the video where he shot three pointers with live kittens instead of basketballs, then slapped a cheerleader as he left the court?

Here's GG Jackson tapping out of his workout today due to sheer exhaustion. Reports are he's in terrible shape right now.

It's kind of interesting that the 'Curry Era' has been happening long enough that all of these prospects grew up with him and know what kind of NBA they are entering, yet everyone seems completely *** at shooting anyway? I thought this was the skill that the next generation was definitely going to have in spades? Yet it seems to be the flaw with basically every prospect.

College spacing and offense sucks, and it really seems like people truly develop their shots once they are already in the league. Percentages do very little for me. Show me good mechanics and work ethic.

I was one saying we have no proof if it’s true or who it even was.

Based on what? He has more to gain than Jarace.

I didn’t know pull-up shots were the only type of shot we base shooting on.

Hate

Barlowe said there is a guy in the 10-20 range who is only doing solo workouts.
