why is nobody talking about this kid? hes the best player on the floor for michigan right now against duke.

is he a legit NBA prospect? could he go first round this year if he keeps up this level of play?

yes he is a legit nba prospect, but he wouldn't go high. i think he should return and continue to get his weight up. he grew almost 2 inches this past summer and put on 20 lbs, but he's still very light. he's also another one of those kids who had a late growth spurt in HS too. he was recruited as a PG, so he did retain a lot of those skills.

he's got a lot to his game to like though. quick, ball-handling ability, long arms, moves well laterally, fast in the open floor. 6'7 capable of running the point in pinch (i actually think he should be UM's point this yr). he can run pnr and he's improved as a shooter.

i say one more yr though unless he'd be satisfied with possibly being a bubble first.

Why is Caris not higher in the draft? He's been playing GREAT basketball. Looks like a top 15 prospect too.


No one has him in the draft this year.

Shhhhhhh don't let the cat out of the bag until next season, will ya?

He's an nba player..6th man scorer type. Reminds me of Kerry Kittles or Kevin Martin

Don't understand how he isn't on chad fords top 100

seems like a guy that might come out in 2015 or maybe even 2016. early second rounder, could definitely have an NBA career. he is undrafted if he comes out this year. still needs to show a lot more

Disagree, if he adds weight in the offseason I think he's a lock for first round next year

he'd definitely get drafted if he declared this year.

And definitely in the first round too.

I'm still shocked DX has guys like Jabari Bird, RJ Hunter and Aaron Harrison before him in the 15' draft lol

I think he can play the point, should be a high lottery pick next year.
