He laid an egg the first game of the season. I want to see if he can consistently make outside shots.

Geez his shooting is not looking good again this game he’s gone 11p(25%), 8r, 5a in 35min very early in season obviously but for now it’s a ❌

The only thing I can say in his favor is Baylor started the season playing two ranked teams. Those guys didn't front load their schedule with teams they could beat by fifty. The team loss to Gonzaga and pick up a quality win against Arkansas.

That being said, Tre Johnson is the guy that's going top five now. VJ Edgecombe has to fix his shooting and creating off the dribble problems. The season is young, I hope he gets it together.

Between the NCAA and international talent this is an outstanding draft. We should be doing whatever is necessary to lock up our own first round pick and trade for another.

Independent of Tre J being a stud, I am betting a VJ's absurd athletic traits. In the mold of Oladipo.

Yep. I’ve been saying we need our pick to be top 5 and another 1st top 20. I’d even trade our POR pick with Players to get another 1st.

Not yet. They are right there and could rise.

Harper is an absolute dog. So strong and uses his body so well to creat contact. Being lefty helps him a lot. His D is really good. He competes and doesn’t take plays off. Had 20 tonight.

Bulls sitting beautifully at #11.

The way things have gone during the unlucky and mediocrely designed AK era, I still expect the Bulls to cough up the pick AND miss the playoffs.

Flagg had 2 costly TOs at the end but overall I liked what I saw. Great two-way forward prospect.

Good to see Edgecombe with a bounce back game after his first 2 stinkers.

Flagg with a great game but couldn't come out with the win.

Jacucionis and Riley play tonight for Illinois.

Asa Newell reminds me of Joakim Noah.

Both had relatively crap games today, after a hot start they have cooled off.

Still early days see how they go hey!
