The closer we get to the draft the more I feel Okobo is the one the Bucks absolutely need to land. He can spend a year coming off the bench, then take over when the Bucks let Bledsoe walk.
Exactly, look what Bud (and the "Hawks U") did with Schroder, they turned him into a starting quality NBA PG one very quickly, despite (reported) attitude issues.
And IMO, going back and comparing their tape Okobo looks like 5x the player Schroeder did before he came over (tbf Schroder was a bit younger).

I think he's fine as a combo guard of the bench that can occupy the 1 and 2 spot. As a starter, his best bet is to improve his ball skills and become a PG. But I don't think it's feasible to believe he gets there. It's not impossible, but he's most likely just a bench calibre player.

It comes down a lot to the jumper. But his form is pretty strong. And he's real young. Not even 19 by draft time.
Appears to have excellent court vision/bball i.q. That's important to me. As is being able to slither through cracks. Not fast, but fluid athlete, can elevate. He's ambidextrous. Alert off ball defender. Reads the ball off the glass and can bang a bit in the post.
Good frame and measurements already. 8'9 standing reach, 6'10+ wingspan, 6'7 height, and solid. Given his age, could potentially still grow a little. Fits positionless basketball mold rather well.
One whose future I could get excited about if the Bucks selected him.
I'd add that he appears capable of playing on and off the ball. So he provides flexibility on offense.
I hadn't read what Ducks' fans have said about him. Seems like a combo of thinking he has talent but wasn't ready and annoyance they didn't get more years out of him.
I have him 4th behind Spellman, Okobo, and Okogie. Could lean Hutchison over him in the end out of conservatism.

I really like McCoy based on where's he is being projected. If we trade down I would be all for McCoy and one of the many shooters available. At the very least, McCoy can contain Deandre Ayton the nights we play the Suns.

Badger, what does your short list look like of guys that should be available around our pick?
It hasn’t changed much. I still LOVE Melton’s defense, best PG defender in the draft since CP3. Efficient and makes the smart/simple play on offense. Paired with Brogdon at SG our D would be amazing.
I like ZSmith, good D and smart O, does the little things and works hard at improving his game.
Vanderbilt is intriguing. Pretty raw having missed a lot of last year and his senior season but his energy and quickness to the ball is astounding. We need a SF/PF defender to offset Mids/Jabari, and his offensive rebounding.
I could be sold on Okobo, he has gotten quicker with the ball at the end of his season. I think he could be a Schroder level player just more shooter than driver but similar impact. Worse defensively though.
I think Huerter will be ok but we don’t have a PG that can set him up for success.
Freaks like Mitchell Robinson and Simmons are intriguing but no idea where their heads are at.
Evans is a solid player, good enough at everything. Like him.
