I have a confession to make… Tre Johnson will be 3rd on my next big board release. The more I watch his film and study him the more I like him.
I would like to believe in Yaxel, but yeesh his athletic testing was really disappointing. He was basically neck and neck with Yang in all testing.My work is paying me for Yaxel Landeborg film session today. I wish I had some more film against better competition. He looks like a giant in that league. The one thing that is really interesting watching him is how often he is guarding much smaller players out on the perimeter. He probably has more reps out on the perimeter than any of the bigs, you can feel his 7'4" wingspan out there. He also has to dribble against these small players as well, and does a good job for a big.
I need to watch a bit more, but I think he has potential as a defensive playmaker that can do enough offensively to stay on the floor. I'm going to compare against some other guys who might be available at 21, but he's in the mix for me as of now.
I'm kind of bored with pick 5 and I'm moving on to pick 21. I really want a defensive play maker at that pick and so I'm looking at Fleming, Yaxel, Philon, Beringer, Penda, and Philon.

I would put Theiro in the conversation. Dude is going to be a defensive monster.I'm kind of bored with pick 5 and I'm moving on to pick 21. I really want a defensive play maker at that pick and so I'm looking at Fleming, Yaxel, Philon, Beringer, Penda, and Philon.
If he can get into a rotation, yeah. I don’t have a lot of faith he has the shooting to do that.I would put Theiro in the conversation. Dude is going to be a defensive monster.
Shades of Ray Allen, Devin Booker… taller and longer Malik Monk.Pro comp?
You full fading Tre/VJ/Ace?Think I might have a diabolical 3-5 on my board.

Some players try to manipulate their athleticism score by tanking their standing reach measurement. Wonder if it's the case here. He measured 36.5 max vert... does he look that athletic on tape? He looks pretty ground bound to me...I just noticed how crazy McNeely flubbed his standing reach number.
6'8 in shoes with a 6'8.5 wingspan but only a 8'3.5 standing reach.
