Groom Mitchell to be the new black KP and trade the latter for Kawhi.

Tell you what, I wouldn't be afraid to let him go up against Embiid. Joel is obviously the premier big in the league right now, but right now, with his ability to stretch the floor, take it off the dribble and get up quick... this kid would give Embiid fits!!! HYYYYPPPPEEEDDDD!!!!!
love it how every year we get excited about our 2nd rounders and they end up like Landry fields and Andy rottens

I have no idea who this kid is. I get that he's athletic and can jump. Does he have any basketball skills?

Apparently he can shoot too, unless I read that wrong. I'm getting old.

He's Bamba-lite...... but looks like he may already have more offensive skill than the other one. Not quite as long of a freekish wingspan but he's a 7-1 PF type, quick enough to guard in space and has that instinctual shot blocking timing that can't be taught.

He kinda slow. Let's hope he's not as dumb on the court lol, I can't watch his interviews.. too cringy.

Edit: He reminds me of Greinke in a way. Maybe he has aspergers or social anxiety. I shouldnt make judgments saying hes slow, because he does seem like something is up there

Interviews are not his thing, I can see how that can turn alot of GMs and even fans off

But at the end of the day, you can't teach 7 foot 1 and movements of a wing on the same body

Or how we get pissed off at euro's and end up with unicorns? But I get your point. All those times we've had 7ft 5-star prospects drop to us in the second round and we still haven't learned. I mean it's not like we've seen the guy playing in games with Bamba or Ayton or anything... waaaaiiiiit.....yes we have. Andy Rautins, here we come!!!!

Robinson
Knox
Twill
Trier
Frank

I doubt Mudiay shows but hope he does.
Baker might be on the mend.
Kornet could get a look I guess but meh.
Hicks to me isn't an NBA player but I guess SL is SL.

Kinda sick looking SL crew.

I wonder if the Knicks met this guy or how hard they scouted him if at all
