2022 NBA Draft Thread: We Going to Have a Pick! (lmao jk)

Managment owes us draft night for all the **** we sat through… I know we are more interested in getting established as layers but management owes us the fun that is draft night… get us a late first to obsess about damn it.
 
I need to re-do my big board since some of my top 30's guys dropped out. I will probably move Justin Lewis and Jake Laravia into the top 30.
 
Justin Lewis gives me Jarrell Brantley vibes. Very similar builds. I think Lewis is a bit taller/longer though, and putting up better stats in a better conference at a younger age.

Not at all.

He's closer to an Alec Burks/Dante Exum mix imo. He's a pretty unique player. Doesnt take jump shots at all. Pretty much just lives in the paint, but can rebound at a high level and play some point.

Think I had him mixed up with another dude.
 
Not buying the Seabron hype. He really can’t shoot. 20% from midrange, 25% from 3. Nearly 80% of his shots come at the hoop and he only shoots 56% at the rim. He also just turned 22. Don’t think he can play offense at this level.

Maybe, but a guard who can get 80% of his shots at the rim at the college level (spacing is terrible) from largely dribble drives is very unique. There's just something to be said about a guy who can get in the paint at will despite having no jumper in a league where there's usually 2-3 people in or right outside the paint at all times.

There's definitely a lot of work needed there to get him some kind of shot. But he was simply on another level from most of the players who played at the combine scrimmages and he looked like he could be developed into some kind of secondary playmaker.

Keep in mind Herb Jones didnt start shooting 3's regularly (and he was an awful 3pt shooter on very limited attempts before that) until his senior season (age 22 season), and he was an awful FT shooter until his senior season. Of course Seabron is a guard/wing/slasher and Jones is 4 who is far better defensively, so the need to prove his shooting is much less than Seabron's. There's also nothing mechanically broken on his jumper either. I think he's just one of those dudes who never bothered to develop his jumper/never had professional training because he has an insane advantage as a driver.

He has a lot of untapped potential. I think he played a post-grad year then red-shirted. He played on a bad NC State team with bad coaching. His game is 100% natural feel at this point. Obviously has a lot of bust potential too.
