Been hearing Justice Winslow is concerning scouts at the moment.

Inside info?

DX has Russell top 4, I doubt he'll fall to us at #7.

Yeah, guys never move up and down draft boards.

Inside info?

Nope, truehoop podcast. Apparently his 12.5% two point shooting is historically very low and is giving scouts concerns (MKG who was considered a poor shooter shot 35% when he was at UK). Top 30 this year the worst is Stein with 29%. So 12.5% is pretty bad.

It's fine with me if he wants to work out with John Wall.

Who is Exum's agent? He will probably work out with those dudes (who have the same agent) over the off-season in pickup games if he isn't at P3.

What are everyones thoughts on Kelly Oubre? I think hes going to be very good. That Galletti podcast referenced us needing a jack of all trades wing also, Dennis Lindsey referenced a hypothetical situation where the jazz might be in a position to draft a guy that might need more development time but has more upside. I think this guy is Oubre. He reminds me of a classic Kawhi Leonard / Paul George / Jimmy Butler under the radar pick. Hes got it all. Am i missing something? Honest question.

He definitely isn't under the radar. He was the most hyped wing prospect in the draft. He has the biggest bust potential IMO of the lottery wings.

His agent is Rob Pelinka. Pelinka's clients include Kobe, Harden, Boozer, Gordon, Iggy, Gerald Wallace, Ariza, Frye, Mayo, Derrick Williams, Kaman, Waiters, Napier, Ed Davis and Wesley Johnson.

To start a panic right now, I'll just throw it out there that there are four current Lakers on that list and one more in Ariza who played for them.

His agent is Rob Pelinka. Kobe, Harden, Iguodala... might do him good if he worked out with those and learned how to play with some aggression and physicality.

Damn, you posted it before me... Yah... the client list is pretty good. Most of those won't be on the Lakers by the time Dante is up for extension.

My point wasn't that those Lakers' players could lure him. It was that Pelinka obviously has a very strong relationship with the team. That coupled with Exum's pre-draft comments about the Lakers and known affiliation with Kobe should concern fans. At least a little.

If he keeps sucking then I won't be concerned if the Lakers get him (ducks head)
:^O

Great minds think alike.

Well we don't have to worry about for 7 years if we want to re-sign him, we can.

Or in other words, overpay him.

He is still only 19 and didn't play basketball the whole of last year....

hummm I wonder who said this same thing a month or 2 back

 

[Hantlers]

Spy.

And fwiw, it's important to note the distinction between overall 2-pt % and 2-pt jumpshot %.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

If Winslow is sucking this much D at shooting for the rest of the year I would be worried, might just be a small slump, his overall % are still solid.

Yup. Kind of like kanter when he came into the league...... except kanter looked better in his rookie year imo

Kanter looked pretty ****ty, people were just convinced he had potential because no one wanted to face the truth.
