Following Potential 2025 Draftees
- Thread starter Elizah Huge

Id rather take Essengue at 5 than Kon at 5 tbh.
I just cant reconcile with being that safe at 5.

I think I'll throw out some "hot" or maybe luke warm takes.
Cooper Flagg - won't be the best player from this draft. He should be top 5 but not the best and maybe not the second best in 10 years.
Dylan Harper - is going to look like a bust his first year in the league.
VJ Edgecomb - will be in an NBA finals. He might not be the best player on the team but he will be in a finals.
Ace Bailey - will be the player that will get GMs extensions or fired.
Trye Johnson - will be a top 10 scorer in the NBA at some point. He will win rookie of the year.
Kon Knuepple - will have the longest career in this draft class. He might not be the best player but he will be valuable every where he goes.
Derek Queen - will be out of the league in 5 years.
Kaman Maluach - will be considered top 5 in DPOY award during his career.
Egor Demin - will shoot above league average from 3 for his career. He will even approach 40% for a bit.
Nolan Traore - will be a consistent starter in the NBA and will be considered for an All-Star team.

International players can withdraw by June 15th. I wonder if the already thin second round will get even thinner.
I bet Neoklis Avdalis ends up going to NCAA.
If I really believed this I would look at him at 5.

Cool takes, Chargers. I don’t have the expertise to judge with precision, but it is certainly entertaining that you made such predictions.

Some of you take what the front office says to the public too seriously. It’s generally always going to be generic, boiler plate stuff that doesn’t mean anything.

In PSYOP, we used to call this “glittering generalities.”

I'm not so sure, AA sounded definitive about the whole non tanking stance. He could have given a more diplomatic, non answer like JZ has given before but he choose to be more direct and reject intentional/deliberate tanking altogether.

I'd rather not.
