Surprised tbh, he must not have gotten much shine from nba scouts at the combine.


not that surprised, not sure if he's a first rounder at this point, and it's a deep C class, while next year's looks pretty shallow at C...really the only 3 Cs projected in the first at this point are Wiseman/Stewart/Carey (and Carey is a questionable prospect IMO)

yeah victim of not enough exposure I guess. Has the skillset to be a lottery pick next year.

If this org is highly focused on fit over upside for Beilein and need for the roster I think there is a small chance these prospects who are not at all considered worthy of the 5th pick (as is) will be considered at pick 7 by this org in a trade down situation with CHI:
KPJ,NAW,Herro and to some degree a bigtime sleeper in Jalen Nowell who is very proven offensively and still has a ton of upside defensively

Does anyone have a complete list of the players who are eligible to be drafted?

He's got great tools/flashes, so there's potential there, I think after 3 seasons without really putting it together it's a bit of a red flag in that he's an older 'project' type. I think he's a top 40 or 45 ish guy.

He really does have the tools to be a guy. He’s got the length and athleticism. He’s got the dribble drive game and can make passes.

Yeah sure, but even if it's inflated by like 5 inches, that's pretty good

Terence Davis has been a huge riser so far. Wasn’t invited to the combine, but teams are now looking at him in the late first round. Last year I never thought he would be in this position. He’s showing up to every workout.

With that said, Hachimura is underrated. Don’t forget he played internationally against men and led his team. A good amount of NBA players and front offices have been super high on him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s taken top 10 just based on his hype. I’m a fan personally even though he has stuff to learn. The improvement hes made so far is a good indication he’ll get even better.

Yeah, I watch all games of every LA team every year and they were bad this year because they had to give minutes to Hands/Wilkes/Brown, who were highly recruited. Without them they can get minutes to guys that can actually help the team. None of them really cared about the season, they all wanted to get to the NBA. The funny thing is I can see all three of them not getting drafted.

Nah but in 2-3 years once Cronin has things going they will be. Going the defense/tactician route was smart considering UCLA recruits itself.

Yeah I like Davis a lot. Not 1st round for me, but I think he has a good chance to go top 45.

Bol Bol at #20 in new Givony's mock draft. Step by step ppl realize that he shouldnt even be 1st round pick.

because of the foot/ the frame/ the questions about both/ the fact he isn't working out...sure
I know it aint because of his skill as a player...without the question marks he is a top 5 prospect.
His stock is low for the questions left unanswered and if those answers are given to select teams and positive projections made he controls his destiny and that is not something to overlook here.
If healthy going forward and not forced into a paint role because of length but instead drafted as a stretch 4 hybrid and utilized that way, his abilty to shoot over anyone combined with the ball skills of a guard at 7'+ make him a potential multi-year allstar.

I would be shocked if it was actually more than 36", we all watched him play. There is no way he has a 45" vert.

Celtics will like him late 2nd if not Philly high 2nd. He should provide some Norman Powell/Lance Stevenson type impact from day 1 for a playoff team. I personally didn't see him getting drafted other than maybe late 2nd, but apparently he is better than I thought he was. damn sleepers...
