I'm watching this kid he's 6'8 can handle and shoot. The only real weakness I see his game is explosion, but 2 of the top 3 players in basketball play under the rim with Jokic and Luka.
What am I missing with George?

no, Bol Bol was a freak, he averaged 21/10/3 as a freshmen. not sure how many other freshmen ever averaged these numbers (albeit small sample size)
not sure what that has to do with anything
I used Bol Bol as a comparison because Bol Bol should be a superstar based on his tools and skills and instead he's a fringe NBA player because he refuses to play hard or work out, lol.
He averaged 21/10/3 while putting in zero effort and scouts were a lot more concerned about the zero effort part, he dropped to the mid second round, and proved none of them wrong.

i don't see how because one player's work ethnic concerns turned out to be legit would have anything to do with Ware

He measured very well at the combine from what I read; 7' barefoot, 245 pounds, 7'2.5" wingspan, 9'4" reach. Though he might be too stiff for the nba, I don't know. I will be watching if he goes in the second round and his further progress; it's been like 10+ years since we had anyone drafted, as far as I know. Does anyone know anything more about him or have an opinion?

He was everywhere hustling for every ball, shooting at all the distance, dunking everything.
Still raw but really impressive showing, the upside is huge. He looks like wing in a center's body.

Jazz could be interested in Salaun at #10. Otherwise, Jazz are looking at Knecht and whomever falls between Cody Williams and Ron Holland.

I’m a big Dillon Jones fan. To me, clearly looks like a long term NBA roll player on a good team. High level rebounding, makes the smart pass, and plays solid defense.

He reminds me of Paolo Banchero
