What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

Kwe Parker(3 star - c/o 2016) to Rutgers. they should be an entertaining bunch of losers in the Big 10. Corey Sanders(c/o 2015) and Parker are both capable of extreme feats of athleticism on the court.

Parker's an undersized SG, and not a PG so I'm not quite sure how he projects beyond college, or how he will relate to these draftee threads. If I had to guess late-second round, maybe. His momentum was halted by a knee injury that he's since recovered from. Still a good excuse to post this mix.

Incoming (c/o 2015) Syacuse Freshman Tyler Lydon, is a player Givony must really like, he's got him ranked as the 20th best freshman (which would indicate 5 stars) when the RSCI has him at #72.

Around 6'10 in shoes with a near 7' wingspan and some obvious face-up potential I can see why. He's bouncy too. Obviously will need to add plenty of strength, he still might be able to declare after his Jr or Soph year.
 
Texas has 2 incoming freshman(c/o 2015) who can both really shoot the ball, in Eric Davis and Tevin Mack.

I've always liked Davis' game, he's quick and can score points in bunches, and at 6'3" with a 6'6" wingspan he's gotta be on the radar for NBA teams. I think hes underrated around the 40's and 50's. He's really good at getting shots off with the ball in his hands, very solid midrange game.

Could be a sleeper type of 2nd rd pick that can light it up.. I'd compare him to Joe Young, the #43 pick in the 2015 draft.

A bump from a Berkkobe thread over a year ago "Giannis Antetokounmpo is best basketball prospect right now in the universe"

Ya know.. the Antetokounmpo's will tell you the 3rd brother Kostas is the most talented, I know hes grown from 6'4 to 6'7 recently and will play HS ball in Wisconsin next year.

As for the best basketball prospect right now in the universe, I'm gonna take a long shot on a giant PG. Ill go with HS class of 2016's De'Aaron Fox. long armed 6'4 Lefty PG, dynamite athlete, awesome shooter, great defense, I have a sneaking suspicion that Fox is infact 'the real deal', whenever i watch Fox i get a strong 'this is going to work in the nba' feeling(He plays very well vs older competition).

Now he's ranked #2 in the class, before Harry Giles by 247.

Personally, I would put Josh Jackson in a group to himself. He's going to crush the nba.

Andrew Jones went from unranked to 30th in scouts rankings, and he's got plenty of room to run. 25th in the mock I just posted.
 
Also, how fast is De'Aaron Fox in comparison to John Wall?? It's been said Fox is the fastest in the country.

You can see here(1:33) he steals the ball under his own hoop and outraces the opposition to the basket, he's got them beat already at half-court.
