not a Paulo guy?

Wendell Moore is the guy that I’ve become obsessed with in this draft. Might not be worth it because it gives Alaa more reason to go on a Duke rant every game.

Not the homerun swing, but every winning team needs a Wendell Moore. What I really like about him besides his 3&D portability and super long arms is the fact that he's a really smart passer. Probably settles into that KCP/DFS/Bullock/Green bracket of player at the next level, but his 21.7 assist percentage for a wing is really strong. He can handle the ball a bit, operate the P&R and collapse defenses.

Still love this kid. Looks the part of an elite PG/Combo Guard.

Doc will bury whoever we draft in the G-League for a year, so might as well swing at a 19 year old with scoring upside.

Could be a good fit as a ball handling wing with length who can shoot. How does he compare to Desmond Bane?

Would love to trade Thybulle for #18 then draft Moore and Liddell.

He gives me Jabari Parker vibes.

My common theme this draft
- Chet is a once in a decade talent
- Jabari is a safe number 1 pick, he is prototype modern wing
- Keegan is a boring but underrated prospect
- Banchero is overrated. He reminds me of Wiggins and Jabari back in 2014. Both is his upside and downside respectively.
- I have Jaden and Sharpe high because I always value lotto talent scoring guards

6 AJ Griffin (upside pick)
7 Tari Eason (grizzlies type PF)
8 Paolo Banchero (safe pick)
9 Matthurin (guard favor pick)
10 Daniels (upside pick)

intriguing prospect. i would be a bit more into him if that ft% didn't tank in year 3 and he shot a bit more from deep to qualify his percentages. big tough, athletic, rebounding and shot creating guard.

very interested to see where he goes

Kobblehead · Post #773 » by **Kobblehead** » Fri May 20, 2022 11:04 am

Hardy is the best Jaden in this draft IMO.

Negrodamus · Post #774 » by **Negrodamus** » Fri May 20, 2022 2:03 pm

Am I missing something? Tari Eason is a top 10 player, right? Huge hands, 7'2 wingspan, 6'8 in shoes. He already has the elite stats for a prospect. Only question is he's a little old for a sophomore.

I just want to thank you guys for all the information and videos. I learn more and get more great scouting info about prospects from this thread than I do anywhere else. Looking forward to all your input as the draft and FA approach.

Shorter, non-defensive liability Saric. He's going to get drafted before our pick. Seems like he already got a promise.

Negrodamus · Post #777 » by **Negrodamus** » Fri May 20, 2022 3:15 pm

Also, along with my draft crushes, Wendell Moore:

6'5.5 with shoes, 7'0.5 wingspan, 38.5 inch max vert, 12th in lane agility. His athleticism was a question of mine, but it looks like he's worked on his burst.

Negrodamus · Post #778 » by **Negrodamus** » Fri May 20, 2022 3:21 pm

Finally, I saw Hugo Besson and Collin Gillespie were the best overall shooters in the combine shooting drills, it seems like. Villanova guards seem to have an ability to stick around the league. I know Gillespie was a 5th year player, and will be 23 in June, but I'm not above taking him in the second round if we don't think he'll go undrafted. He's not my first choice, but 6'3 with an elite shooting profile makes him allure for sure.

I mean, if you can figure out what to do with him on defense (which he isn't completely lost on that end), then he is an excellent backup point guard in the league. Could play with Harden easily.

Damn, I want him in a Sixers uniform badly. I’ve also developed a draft crush on EJ Liddell. 7 foot wingspan and the top standing vert in the draft. The form on his jumper needs some work but he’s got good touch and great defensive instincts/motor. A really valuable player archetype for a winning team.
