I feel that Patrick Williams should be on this board over Pokusevski and Stewart.

I think Vassell is clearly the best prospect on the board here followed by Williams, Ramsey, and Lewis Jr.

Posted some monster stats vs. top 100 teams this year.

Lot of Love for Stewart on this board, don’t see it either personally. Don’t believe his athleticism will translate well.

Any mix of Vassell - Maxey - Cole should the next 3. Stewart wth. Onyeka shouldn't fall much far.

Also, Toppin has clearly taken a hit given the time the quarantine has allowed people to dig harder into film of him.
Robert Horry is better than MJ, because everybody knows that 7>6.

What are people seeing in Anthony's game that makes him a better prospect than Vassell?

At a guess, more potential than Vassell. I think Vassell's expected top end outcome is Danny Green... Strong chance he gets there, but some people want more than that in a lottery pick.

Fair enough, I'm pretty bearish on Anthony's game translating at the next level whereas I'm confident Vassell's will.

Why do you think people are so bullish on Anthony's game at the next level? He's been pretty inconsistent shooting and isn't a great passer or defender.

better handle, more lead-guard potential than Vassell, ability to both run offense and play off-ball

I'm not the right person to ask... I can't call myself bullish on Anthony.

I made a pretty good case 3 or 4 ranking spot threads ago and again at 7th

[ambidextrous touch , elite explosiveness and shot blocking not to mention roll man skill on top of all the tools and athleticism to guard multiple positions at a high level outside the paint too and his virtually unknown apparently ability to knock down pull up Js will lock him into the top 5 or 6 of this weak class. even if he isn't a typical top 5 pick, unless 3 of the 5 teams in the top 5 need pg pushing his stock down a bit.]
This is why he is a top 5 prospect.
I mean there are a plethora of flaws top to bottom on every single guard prospect in the draft that is getting lottery consideration which also boosts his stock for me.

Yeah, but with his size how effective is he going to be at the next level? Didn’t particularly demonstrate good decision-making in college.
