thanks! one last question, does it look like Jamal Murray is going to reclassify or no?


Most likely but the idea of him jumping to the pros straight from Canada is floating around.


I know he was heavy on Duke's radar if he reclassified and i heard Oregon was also an option you know anywhere else he may end up if he reclasses and doesn't go pro?

Either to a CIA Bounce pipeline (Syracuse, Oregon, Missouri) or close to the border (MSU, UM) or UK. Don't think Duke is an option anymore.

How sure are people that Sviat is 2 and out?

Also is Furkan Korkmaz a legitimate lottery guy next year? What is his game like?

it's weird how old this recruiting class is. Loads of 19 year olds. Ingram has almost 2 years on some of them.

The fact that rankings are done by class and not birth year is so dumb.

I know John Beilein makes it a point to check guys birthdays and goes after really young prospects. A lot of guys don't do that so I guess its an advantage.

Korkmaz is a great prospect he is a legitimate lottery pick guy for 2016. He already made good Euroleague games at 17 years old. He's an above the rim athlete and outstanding at shooting and scoring. He's a great defender too. He has the whole package, we don't often see that kind of high profile SG prospects in Europe. To me since Ginobili, Hezonja and Korkmaz are the most impressive young SG in Europe.

Considering how many prospects came back, 2016 draft projects to be crazily deep.
You add these players to the top prospects of that class, and look at that...

PG: Kris Dunn, Demetrius Jackson, Monte Morris, Melo Trimble, Ron Baker (+ Briscoe, Thornton, etc)
SG: Grayson Allen, Caris Levert (+ Malik Newman, etc)
SF: Malik Pope, Nigel Hayes, Justin Jackson (+ Simmons, Ingram, Brown, etc)
PF: Domantas Sabonis, Damian Jones, probably James Webb, probably Zhou Qi (+ Diallo, Bender, maybe Maker, etc)
C: Poeltl, Brimah (+ Labissiere, Stone, Ellenson, Zimmermann)

People say the draft is weak every year. I see a ton of guys with upside who can emerge as legitimate lottery guys. Unlikely that none of them don't.

He's a complete SG. He has great quickness and athleticism, great size, is a superb shooter, is a good ballhandler and shot creater and has all the tools to be a good defender. Now I can't tell you how he compares to the top american SG's his age but he should definitely be at least a solid NBA player if everything pans out well.
