Maybe I could have VJ over Kasparas if he continues to play well
More and more feels like the fall off after three is pretty big. I'd be extremely happy with top 3, much less certain on 4-6 and pretty disastrous if we fall to 7+.
If we finish with a bottom-2 record, we can't fall to 7.
He's been awesome during conference play. I would have him as high as 4, but this recent 3 point shooting seems a little too good to be true so Kas is holding onto that spot for now.
I have VJ below Tre Johnson until I see VJ knock down shots off the dribble. He's been making his 3s, but they've been mostly catch-and-shoot reps. Whereas, Tre Johnson has to self-create and beat defenders possession after possession.
Tre is definitely a better shooter/scorer, but VJ dwarfs him in most areas. Tre's efficiency has really tanked in conference play so unless the scoring gets wider I don't have much of a case for him over VJ. He's still top 6 for me, but the 5 other guys are comfortably ahead of him.

If he was just a little taller. Measurements are going to be very important. I just have a hard time seeing a 6'3" guard who doesn't distribute having a huge role.

What i like a out VJ is his athleticism and his willingness to defend. Jazz need defense.
Yeah, but a team wants more than that from a top-5 pick. VJ's shooting and handle need some real work for the next level.

Demin led BYU in field goal attempts again (by a lot) and got blown out again.
Seems like the strategy when a team plays BYU should be to try to make Demin try to score.

Tre Johnson can get down hill, but he's not very good at finishing at the rim once he gets there, at least from what I've seen, I don't know the numbers. Part of it is that despite having a solid build, he seems to avoid contact. He does a good job on one of his last shots in this video of getting his shoulder in to the defender to create separation and then making the shot.

These are some tough looks. Like Keyonte, he'll have an easier time if he plays off the ball and focuses on finishing plays. He's had games earlier this year where his play style looked a lot like a young Klay Thompson, basically relocating and taking shots off the catch with a quick release.
Players learn to draw contact. IT's hard in college because the paint is so packed and the refs dont give the same kind of calls NBA refs give. I think Tre is going to learn all that.
LIke I said before, he reminds me of a jumbo sized Clarkson. He's got a nice shiftiness to his game and he can pull up off awkward moves. He's definitely shoot first, but I can see he has vision/passing ability. I'm a big fan of his.

Who is the better Ivisic brother? Both have some incredible games. Arkasnas Ivisic went 5/9 from 3 with 3 blocks and 3 steals. I wonder where they go. They have to be tantalizing talents for NBA teams with their mix of size, rim protection, and shooting.

Hicks stats profile pretty similarly to Cam Johnson and Cam didnt really blowup until his 5th year, and HIcks is only in his 4th.
Derik Queen has been awesome against Rutgers today
He stole the show. He looks like a dork until you see how coordinated he is in the paint. Dude can dribble and finish. I'm looking forward to seeing how his game will translate at the next level.
It sucks Bailey was ill - the dude looks miserable on the bench.
