Measurements from the combine are posted.

Surprises-Davion 6'0 in socks, Keon Johnson 6'3.

Scottie Barnes is a specimen.

Does anyone else look at wingspan like it's the 40 in the NFL draft?

Someone asked about SGs earlier - I like Moody and he could drop to the 14. He plays more like a robot, but works hard on defense, great size and has a fairly reliable shooting form. He could end up being absolutely nothing as he doesn't have an elite skill, but he has all the tools to be a very solid 3 and D plug and play starter.

Dang. Moses Moody's measurement is insane. 7plus feet wingspan for 6'5 w/o shoes

We knew Davion was short.

Jalen Johnson is also quite a specimen.

Moody was a plus defender despite his aparently limited athleticism ... that wingspan is part of that.

Similar difference as Barnes.

None of the top 4 have been measured yet I guess.

No way he drops to 14.. he's in the Klay/Hield model and that is extremely sought after. Probably has one of the highest floors of anyone in this class. Frankly I think he's more likely to go before our 1st pick than make it to our 2nd

This short, though? Even his WS is underwhelming at 6'4.25''. He's in the bottom 5 in height, wingspan and standing reach in the combine. That's rough for someone who's not a pure PG, soon turns 23 and has defense as one of his calling cards.

Highly unlikely. If you want Moody, you'd have to take him with the MIN pick if it converts.

I'm just going off The Ringer's mock and big board. Both of which have him at either 15 or 16. ESPN also has him at 18.

I agree. Especially post combine measurements. The minny pick probably will be between Barnes vs moody

I mentioned Moody in an earlier post -- a couple of months ago -- and was told by one of our resident experts that he wouldn't be worth our slot in the draft (approx. 13-15 at that point.) I liked him as a choice and still do.

I remember the year Klay got drafted I was pitching him on this very board for that 11th pick. I was told by many that he was someone who should be drafted in the 20s. I always thought Moody would go around 8 to 12, so I dont think its a reach of Minny pick converts.

Can you imagine if the GS pick lands in the top 3. The Mobly vs Suggs or Green convos?

The craziest scenario would be if the Warriors ended up with the #4 pick and Mobley somehow slipped to them. They would be forced to do the right thing, pick Mobley and jettison Wiseman.
