Jaylen Brown so overrated.
Following 2016 potential draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
Cal was making a comeback too until Brown came back on.
Please no one talk about drafting Valentine. Couldn't get his team out of the 1st round as a Senior vs a 15 seed.
Denzel Valentine had ZERO FTA's against a mid-major team in his last game as a collegiate player.
Just a dude playing on a loaded college team who can make passes to 3pt shooters like Forbes.

Best Case: Grevis Vasquez who can shoot better
That's a bad reason not to draft somebody. Hood's Duke lost to Mercer(14 seed) and Hood had 6pts on 2/10 shooting.

Who does he play for so I can check him out?
Hood is/was a beast though. He also wasn't a Senior. That was his first year on Duke and 2nd year playing collegiality. Completely different set of circumstances.
Mega Vizura from Croatia.
BTW I just checked his stats, they are not as good as I expected. He's shooting .395 FG% for the year, and .360 from 3. The 3p % is alright I guess, but he would need to improve his overall offensive game... his passing looks nice for a wing though.

He's a European prospect.

Hmmmmm...I know you and I loooooved Hezonja last year...but what's he done?
I thought I was being generous with that comp.
Vasquez have super similar senior years, basically the same size, and about equally as athletic. Valentine is a little longer and a better shooter. Vasquez was a better driver and played with less talent.

He's about a year and a half older than Furkan, and not exactly tearing it up in the Adriatic league. I'm seeing 36% from 3 point land.
Looks closer to 6'6" than 6'7". Nice wingspan, but plenty of those have been busts.

Givony looking a little desperate trying to defend Brown and his #3 draft position.
Time for everyone to overreact on Jaylen Brown and give him the Harrison Barnes treatment. No one will remember this in a month, so enjoy.
This is the last time in Jaylen Brown's career he'll be surrounded by 2 to 4 non shooters at all times. Perfect recipe for him to fail.

I still like Mario. He's a rookie; he'll find his stride in time.
