2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

Chomche is about an inch bigger than Bam Adebayo (height/length). He gets off the floor pretty quickly, but he's not as bouncy as Bam is. It also wouldn't surprise me if Missi tests out with a bit more vertical lift if both players go through go through the Combine. Chomche was able to make guys alter their shots last night, and he recorded 3 blocks. However, guys with good finishing ability are going to score on him.

I could see him get drafted in the early 20s this year if teams believe in his shooting and passing. I could also see him deferring until next year, as there might not be as many center prospects in next year's draft.

The issue is that Chomche is a dime a dozen prospect. Every year there is a good 3-5 rim runners with some sort of upside. This year we got Ware, Sarr, Clingan and Missi.

If he works out great maybe someone takes him early, but his athleticism doesn't seem to pop which is what makes teams salivate over these types of prospects.
 
It was mentioned a few days ago. I think it is the right move for the Pelicans with how healthy Lebron and AD have been this year. There is probably a good chance they play less games next year.
 
Huge coin flip later this week. It’s actually a ping pong style drawing now @infection . Will we end up with the 28th or 29th pick? I think we know already.
 
Cam Christie is officially testing the draft waters. If I'm the jazz I would guarantee him the thunder pick to see if it keeps him in.
 
From Givony:

Rob Dillingham is a big wild card in terms of his draft range. Some teams say he is firmly in their conversations for No. 1, while others have a difficult time looking past his measurables and porous defense and consider him more of a super sixth man type spark plug scoring option.

My prediction is he's the guy who slides further than he should. I don't think teams will see him as good enough to be a primary ballhandler and may already have that guy or prospect in place. So he gets drafted as a 6th man type instead. I think he is better than that. At 8 its a tough call with all the guards we have. I wouldn't be shocked if he's a better player than Key.
 
More from Givony:

Scouts' primary concern revolved around Risacher's toughness and passivity, so seeing him try to dunk on opponents aggressively and step into open 3s with never-ending confidence is a positive, but it would be nice to see those shots drop. Risacher is still making 39% of his 3s this season with significant volume as a recently-turned 19-year-old competing at the highest levels of European basketball. But how he finishes the season will be important for where he ultimately lands, and it would be very surprising to see him fall out of the top 3.
 
More from Givony:

Other candidates could emerge as the draft process moves along. Nikola Topic is expected to return to action for Red Star Belgrade in the Adriatic League playoffs, an opportunity to build some momentum while the season is over for most prospects. Reed Sheppard, Stephon Castle, Matas Buzelis and Ron Holland will likely stake their claims to be top picks as well, especially for teams casting a wide net in pre-draft workouts.
