What's new

Following 2016 potential draftees

I like Jaylen Brown better than Justise Winslow and Stanley Johnson from last year's draft. Out of our range, of course...

That's the kind of athletic, versatile wing we need, though he needs to develop his shooting.
 
Ellenson shoots hooks with both hands!! He has good footwork and a strong base(stronger than Lyles), he holds his ground very well and might be able to play 5 vs backups. He's got a textbook turnaround J. Lots of potential he's ultra-skilled.
I guess if i want a true post score diamond stone would be that guy.

Jordan Brand Classic games are tommorow, International game starts at 1:30PM EST on WatchESPN, Here's the roster. In bold are the names I'll be watching.



ARTURS KURUCS (Rodions younger brother)

Height: 6-2 | Position: Guard | Year: 2000 | Club: Laboral Kutxa Baskonia | Country: Latvia
Benson-Lin


Hi brother is projected as a first round pick in 2017 draft so he could be an interesting prospect.
 
Ellenson is definitely one of my favorite prospects. Luwawu another. Hield a third. All three could contribute next year, IMO.
 
There's going to be players on the floor of that international game with the potential to go #1 in their respective drafts.. Charles Bassey and Rowan Barrett Jr have the best chance..

I've posted before that I think Bassey can go #1 and he's a better prospect than Favors was.. Here's some footage posted 2 days ago..

He averaged 21points, 14boards and 6 blocks a game this year as a freshman, and he hasn't been in the country for much more than 1 year..

Players like Oton Jankovic, Marko Pecarski and Filip Petrusev are all really highly thought of by European scouts, and might not be that far off..

I suspect 6'5" PG Pedro Nunes will end up in the 1st round too.


Almost seems like Latvia is overtaking Lithuania as the better place for younger players.
 
What happened to that Vezenkov guy e everyone was hyping last year?

He decided to sign with Barcelona which as one of the best teams in Europe also means he has played very little this year. Also even when he does play seems rather passive in favor of the vets on the team. About to watch them in a hour. Playoffs occuring in Euroleague.
 
Question
Do you just read about these kids and watch highlight films or do you actually go out and watch whole games?
Because I watch whole games. AAU High school games but thee whoel game. Highlightapes are made to look like all have nba talent, Just saying.
 
If Charles Bassey was in this draft pool it'd be fair to say he's one of the elite rebounders in the class, him and Poeltl.. that being said he's 15 which means he won't be eligible til he's 2019.

all 30 NBA teams are in attendance for this game..

Oton Jankovic looks special,I've seen him play a few games before this and he's just got true point forward written all over him.. IMO a much better prospect than Dario Saric.. He;

Pecarski's showing off some seriously polished off, Luis scola style moves in this 2nd half. He's got a ton of tricks in the bag already..

6'4" Benson Lin looks good too. Like a Young Jeremy Lin.

Abdoul Coulibaly looks pretty good too. Could be the next in line of players from Mali

One can only compare Taiwanese players with other Taiwanese players? :)
 
Lol is it just me or does PG_AB hype up just about every player?

It's easy to bring back predictions when you are doing it so damn often.

I personally would like to see a big board that isn't consensus based.
 
So provided DX is truthful about the feedback they've gotten from teams/scouts on Maker.
Are all 30 teams trying to smokescreen? Is it still a smokescreen when there's smoke everywhere?
 
I just think they don't want to upset their mock too much over it. Only way he doesn't end up in the first round are if his workouts are ghastly, and I don't see any reason to think that'd happen.

Maybe teams don't like him yet from hat they've seen, but may become more interested once they work him out? And at that point the ppl could 'talk' about how workouts/interviews went well and future mockdrafts could reflect that development.
