Jaylen Brown has declared and reportedly will hire an agent. Good news for the Jazz any way ya slice it.
This is GREAT news.

NBAdarft has him underrated at 9.. DX has him overrated at 4.. He's safe as can be in the top-8 IMO..
He's a markedly better athlete than Stan Johnson or even Justise Winslow, his ability to accelerate is elite.

With Hayward, Burks and Brown, now you're talking about a team that can cause havoc getting all the way to the basket.. They've got some good weakside shooters(and offensive rebounding) in place too..
Is brown a better prospect then murray?
Canadian Border Control arrested 30 year old Jonathon Nicola for violating the Immigration Refugee Protection Act. What they found out was that for the last 6 months the 6’9″ 200 lb Nicola has been posing as a 17 year Catholic Central High School student and Star basketball player.
We are not talking about a kid that was left back a couple times or reclassified to gain an athletic advantage. This is a literal example of a man amongst boys. Nicola was living with the Catholic Central head basketball coach who last year was quoted as saying that he had a legit chance of playing in the NBA.
Do you have a take on Tremont Waters?
Newest players at the top of the 'Why doesn't he have a UK offer yet?' lists are;
2016 - Kostas Antetokounmpo (obviously not gonna happen. just throwing it out there one last time)
2017 - Brandon McCoy (no way should Obiagu get an offer over Big B)
2018 - Simi ****tu (Hon mention. Jordan Brown, Bol Bol, Khavon Moore)
2019 - Cole Anthony (Hon mention. RJ Barrett)
2020 - Kyree Walker (Obviously speculative, 6'4" already, will be a dynamic/athletic SF, already has a nice handle/ability to get to the rack)
I just wonder, specifically about the can't-miss prospects on the west coast, that it wouldn't be better to give those players offers as early as possible.
2017 players like Jaylen Hands(before he committed to UCLA), Brandon McCoy, and Jordan Brown in 2018 would be examples..
Now I'm sure they've been in contact with Troy Brown (2017) and if Young were to go elsewhere, I'd imagine they'd offer on Duval too.
Cole Anthony is a no-brainer though, I GUARANTEE you, eventually, he gets an offer.. So I figure I'll post it now..
Charles Bassey in 2019 is obvious too.. forgot to mention him
That Kyree Walker in 2020 is legit too, could be one of those west coast prospects I'm talking about..
Draftexpress seems to think so.. NBAdarft no..
I don't think so..
It's close though..
In a perfect best-case scenario Brown probably has more upside..
3pt shooting is the great equalizer these days though and Murray's the best in this draft.
Tyler Dorsey who's currently in this draft pool is a better prospect than Taylor..
Rumor floating about Dorsey is an interesting one for a team such as the Jazz... He could remain in the draft, fall wherever and go play pro in Greece..

If thats the plan he'd be a great pick in the 2nd round to stash..
I'm still an Olivier Hanlan fan, Dorsey is a better project though.. Massive age difference..
To me Korkmaz seems worse than Hezonja and Devin Booker (and even Oubre) from last year, and he certainly doesn't stack up well vs Terrance Furgeson, or Malik Monk next year..
Definitely get the feeling that from 12 he'd be at least a minor reach.. I'd also speculate that the lottery wings in 2018 will be better too.. He certainly doesn't posses the raw talent of a Hamidou Diallo, Luka Doncic or even Brian Bowen..

You've gotta be kidding me...
lmao that video is awesome
I checked the stats and Jamal Murray made 1½x more 3's than Furkan attempted..
You question Jamal Murray's NBA 3pt shooting range??
You brought up Furkan Korkmaz shooting on a longer 3pt line like it means something.. It means nothing..
So let me get this straight.. Furkan didn't have an opportunity to shoot volume 3's because he was buried on the bench.. so he's to be given the benefit of the doubt???
Jamal Murray is proven as a high volume, high percentage 3pt shooter, which is what got D'Angelo Russell drafted over Jahlil Okafor last year..
Korkmaz on the other hand is a specialist..
Jason Kapono isn't a better 3pt shooter than Damian Lillard, I don't care what the %'s say..
You've gotta be kidding me...
