What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

plus 7 assists, if he can keep racking up assist #'s like that he can crack the top-10.
 
What a collapse by Arizona.. They were playing catchup the whole game. Finally turned the corner and then gave it all back in the final minute.

Rawle with 5 to's. Kobi Simmons missing his 3's. Markannen with not enough FGA's in a loss IMO.
 
Kansas started LaGerald Vick yesterday 15pts 9boards 1ast on 6/7 FG's. Josh Jackson started at the 4 and racked up 7 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals.

Udoka started and dropped 17 in 23 minutes too (not eligible for the 2017 draft tho)

Probably a damn good fit next to Utah's bigs.. he might be this drafts Al Farouq Aminu
 
Kennard looks like a great example of an undersized SG whos developed his combo skills for the next level in college.

I'ma go out on a limb and say he leads Duke in APG this year..


while were on the subject - lemme just proclaim Josh Jackson the best passer on Kansas too. He's a player I'd almost want to experiment with at PG tbpfh..
 
Just watched a great performance by Dennis Smith Jr. vs a game Loyola team. They won by 2. 30pts 6 rebs 7 ast 2 to's on 22 FGA's.


Yurtseven is sorely missed on that squad.
 
Anyone criticizing him for being undersized?

Not criticizing him but it certainly makes me weary, I think its safe to say he's not an ideal SG to put next to Steph Curry, it'd be a Monta Ellis situation..

If he was 6'5" he'd be much higher on everyones boards. I'm still not sold on his PG skills, I'd list his position as CG or SG/PG.

He's actually bigger than DeJuan Wagner who went 6th in 2002 and was seen as purely a SG.


Hes not long though. 6'3½" wingspan and 8'3" standing reach are fairly pedestrian #'s.. George Hill is long, Monk not so much.
 
UNLV is kinda, for lack of a better term, a bit of a dumpster fire this year... and won't get much mention, certainly not in a positive light..

6'4" So. PG, Jaylen Poyser (Canadian) has been balling though!! Crazy improvement in his stats from last season. Definitely a player to keep an eye on.


18.2ppg 3.8 rebs, 4.2 ast, 1.2 stls, 1.8to's, on 45% from the field and 44% from 3 (3 makes on 6.8attempts) He's also drawing FT's at a nice rate and hitting him at an 84% clip.

UNLV lists him at 6'4", he's probably the same height as Emmanuel Mudiay tho (6'5" ws tho)


He's not listed in DX's sophomore rankings which go to #89
 
Seen Florida a few times now and Devin Robinson is certainly improved. He's added visible muscle and shooting career best %'s across the board.

He's going into the top-41 of my next mock.
 
both Robert Williams(Fr. - Texas A&M) and John Collins(So. - Wake Forest) who I've been hyping here for a while are freshly minted 1st rd picks in DX's 2018 mock...

Williams will have a say in their matchup vs UCLA in an hour and a half on ESPN. Lots of prospects to watch in that one.

I'm actually more concerned that he's only around 185 lbs. for a 2-guard. That's Zach Lavine territory and would seem to hurt him defensively. He can fill out and add strength though. Yeah, would be huge for him if he can add an inch or two.
 
apparently Allonzo Trier has won his appeal and is just waiting on one last greenlight to play.

New dx mock posted today. Lonzo Ball up to #4. Malik Monk up to #5. Frank Ntilikina down to 12. Harry Giles down to 13!! Alec Peters up to#26. Jawun Evans up to #30. Robert Williams quickly trending upwards thru the revisions, is up to #31. Viny Okouo continues to creep up the mock to #46..

There's also some sort of mistake with Junghyun Lee being in the draft as he's born in '99..
