It’s tough cos I don’t think Clayton Jr lasts to the Denver pick, so it may be an either or. And I really like both. I think WCJr has some Jamal Murray to his game, and I think Coward has a floor of a Nesmith type and an attainable ceiling of an Anunoby.
But if Den pick + Jett can move us up to land whoever we don’t take at 16 I’d probably pay that.
Well... I dunno... I mean Deshawn Stevenson had a MJ comparison/ceiling when he was in the draft. lol
But seriously, an advantage of OG is he is as strong as a tank and built that way. Isnt Coward more of the middle between tank and lean?
I’m just going off highlights in scouting reports so can’t pretend to know the guy’s game too well, but you know I don’t care much about consensus rankings. Coward looks strong to me, though. Defensively there’s plenty of vision of him getting into a seated position and absorbing contact whilst keeping his long arms up vertically. It just looks like really disciplined stuff, to me.
And his entry passing from the perimeter is a great bonus. If it develops and works out I could see him having some MoJo-like chemistry with bigs.
Just all up a potentially great connector piece.
I’ve been checking film on Coward and I agree he looks really interesting.. both his archetype and upside are intriguing. It would be tough to pass on him at 16. Not sure if he even makes it to 16 at this point though
). Clifford's rebounding is, apparently, a thing...along with everything else he does...the Josh Hart comp is intriguing, along with the discussion of how his game has expanded over the years.
