Walter played the entire 2nd half I think. Legs must be dead + nerves

- Start date
Definitely think Walker has a lot of potential as a nice 3rd/4th option. Would love to pick him at 9. Think he would be a really good fit.
The question is size and athleticism with him, but you could more or less say the same about Coby White at UNC. Well, not really. White is bigger.

Sample is limited, but Salaun's shot chart shows he's been limited to certain spots on the floor.

Tyon Grant Foster going to be a terror in the G-League next year.
All you have to do is watch to see he isnt very skilled outside of spot shooting.
TGF could be legit. Former Kansas player. Nearly died due to a heart issue. Spent time away from basketball.
Mark Sears gives me a lot of FVV vibes.
Maybe there isn't a #1 pick in this draft. Maybe the draft should just start at #3 with Sarr or Risacher.

I'm watching Duke vs James Madison now.. McCain looks really good. I see him being projected in the 20s... He looks better than most lottery projected players I've seen.

Morris Almond set scoring records. G League stats are flimsy at best in predicting nba success.
Jaedon LeDee has to have the all time biggest improvement from his first four years to his final year in college w/o changing teams between the 4th and 5th year.

So that's Cody Williams, Ryan Dunn, and Johnny Furphy for the Jazz?
Some quick thoughts:
- Clingan going top-5 would be great for us as it would push someone I like better down to us.
- Knecht in the top-8 isn’t really surprising I think it’s well deserved.
- Holland dropping to 12 is interesting. This is the draft I would love to move up in. A ton of value in the 10-18 range.
- Edey and Filipowski at 14/15 makes sense. I think those guys go around that range.
- Castle at 17 is a little perplexing. I’m not as high on him as others on here but would surprise me some to see him drop that far.
- I like Da Silva so it’s nice seeing him rise to 18. I just think he will have a long career in the league.
- McCain literally shooting himself up draft boards. Up to 19 now!
- Furphy at 28 would be an insanely good pick. I doubt he falls that far but that would be awesome.
- Kolek projected in the late first is cool too. I mentioned yesterday I really like his game.

Actually Jalen Tyson instead of Ryan Dunn because our pick is 32 currently.
Yeah I feel like if Furphy is going 28th he isnt coming out. He's one of a handful of guys who can really swing the draft's quality.
Walter is raising some of the same green flags that I saw in Keyonte despite the shot not going in. Very high 3 point rate and free throw rate. Decent FT% and degree of difficulty of 3 point shot makes it believable. While Keyonte showed some playmaking potential, I think Walter shows more promise as a defender....well at least people say he's a good defender. Will have to check in on that. They are not the same player, but have some similar indicators for optimism.
OTOH, while both get to the FT line a lot, they don't shoot at the rim very much.

He's had some big games this season. He is one of the most sure shooters in the draft. 40%+ from 3, decent volume, decent amount unassisted, 87%+ from the line. Problem is that he doesn't do a ton else and is also sophomore aged. He's a Landry Shamet type prospect, but that might be good enough to warrant a mid round grade in this draft.
