I'm certain he'll be a top 3 pick at the end of the season, probably even the #1 pick this draft has been longing for
I mean, there's a reason why I've been saying this is arguably the best international class ever and not a "terrible" or "weakest" draft class. I don't see what the difference is if the usual high school freshmen are replaced by international players. It's still the same amount of talent at the end of the day it's just coming from outside the country. He's been on most radars it just wasn't clear what his status was and if he'd even be in this class. I think that's been put to bed. He's basically Porzingis 2.0 and should be considered a top 5 lock at this point. 7'2" guys that can shoot, block shots and are long and athletic don't grow on trees. There's like a handful in the world. Just because he would vault to #1 in this draft class if he stays healthy and balls out like this does not mean the class is weak. He's just a unicorn. If these other international kids and the Ignite kids were playing in the NCAA they'd light it up too.
