I put Sidy Cissoko on the "losers" list as well and I've stated he's my favorite prospect. Just stop being a baby back bitch because I didnt say only positive **** about your favorite prospect.

Somebody mad I called him out on his inconsistency, but oh well.

You just sound like a loser man. I clearly said it was based off my expectations. How do you know what my expectations where? Make your own list and stop acting like Lopo.

I really don't need to make my own list... you can see what guys have adequate size for the position and which don't... regardless of personal expectations.

Measurements winners are: (these are relative to my personal expectations)

  • The Twins
  • GG Jackson (Beat the short wingspan relative to height allegations)
  • JHS (just a massive bodied and long PG)
  • Maxwell Lewis
  • Ryan Rupert (+8'' wingspan holy moly)
  • Jarace Walker (absolute tank of a human with elite length)
  • Dariq Whitehead (came in taller than I thought)
  • Zach Edey (my god)
  • OMP
  • Mo Gueye

Losers:

  • Taylor Hendricks (came up lacking on the wingspan after it being rumored it was 7'3 and was shorter than expected)
  • Mike Miles (rare to see a negative wingspan on a 6' player)
  • Jordan Hawkins (thought he'd have a longer wingspan)
  • Sidy Cissoko (after being told he was 6'8 by Pooh Jeter, 6'5.5 is underwhelming)
  • Judah Mintz (probably one of the guys I've watched the least, but in the limited time I've seen him I thought of him as being a long-armed player, but is only + 0.5'')

Some people are disappointed that Gradey Dick came in at 6'6.25". I'm not. He'll be 6'7.5" in shoes, which is fine for what he does. He's basically Hayward-sized.

i'm thinking all those that will be measured, have been measured. disappointed we won't see Sensabaugh, Keyonte George or NSJ.

The measurements might be released in bunches, rather than in real-time. Jett Howard is another one we're waiting on. I also can't imagine that Dereck Lively wouldn't do the measurements.

Hilariously on point for Cy. Wild rumor from where? He came in exactly as expected and has a standing reach more than a couple inches bigger than the dude he claims has elite length. Tay may not have been a "winner" but claiming he's a loser when Walker came in short and is a winner is just wild hating but I'd expect nothing less.

exactly this. Lets be intellectually honest here.......he cant control a rumored wingspan so calling it a fail that he didn't reach that is dumb.

Jett isn't there supposedly.
 
Don’t have many winners or losers, everyone was just about where they were listed/expected.

If I had to pick a winner I’d probably say GG. Wingspan+Height more than expected, clearly has wide shoulders, and just looks better in drills. I still have questions about his game, but I was impressed with his frame and I do think he will get drafted high because he will look great in the predraft process.

As far as losers? Maybe it’s the Mandela effect but I also thought Hendricks had a 7’3 wingspan. Don’t know why Saint is getting roasted for that. You can’t decide to make up someone else’s personal expectation lol.
 
I’m going to be honest, Hendricks fans on this forum act like Raptor fans when they think there was a bad foul call. There isn’t some crazy conspiracy against you, and you look unhinged to anyone on the outside haha.
