Fletcher isn't a prospect

Askew isn't 2021, neither is Allen, Brooks I'd lean towards no either, Jackson dunno, he wants to but may not play enough

Sarr should be added

Boston is a lotto talent
Clarke is similar in some ways to Bolmaro, more athletic

I have Boston as a top5 talent right now, I'm lower on Clarke than most, but 20s guy to me as well

Just watched that "Big Blue Madness" vid with the three point shoot out and some various workout stuff. Clarke looks crazy long. If he's 6'7" his wingspans gotta be 7'2".

T Cleezy is my guy.

it's against scrub university but my guy looks clean out there. need to slow down on his jumper a bit but he's easing into the right pace and making smart plays. He's gonna be a better pro than he will a college player.

Kentucky playing on the world wide leader right now.

I've seen T-Mac comps for Clarke but when i watch him move on offense he reminds me of D Wade.

Boston is a mini Durant

Richmond just smoked Kentucky...stupid plays down the stretch by almost all UK freshmen

not sure if it's smart by Cal to start all FS 1-4, I'd put in Mintz in at guard instead of Askew, who's not ready yet and having trouble running basic plays in the half court

Freshman PG just aren't ready for the college game unless they a sure fire NBA lotto pick. The PG position is too tricky to learn.

Devin Askew (a low 5 star) looking like a complete dub out there today.

all active players for Kentucky today did not play a single minute for Kentucky last year...that's crazy

Boston definitely needs more development than some of the other top guys I’ve seen so far.

not getting at least one of Hagans/Quickley to come back has been devastating so far for Cal, they're gonna drop to 1-3 for first time under him

Clarke had a monster game tho, looked good today

He looks so indecisive with the ball and lost out there at times. Not sure what his problem is.

When he was decisive you'd see the flashes but still too sped up and looks to still be as adjusting to the size and speed jump of this level from high school. Jumper was much more balanced this game though

Where do you see Clarke falling?

He seems line a solid pick for the 10-15 range, but he doesn’t look strong or all that explosive around the rim which makes it hard to push him higher.

He is fun to watch though.

With this draft and with the struggles I expect from him this year I'm guessing mid to late first. I'd love to say lotto but there's a lack of polish right now that might make that difficult with the talent and fittable pieces in this class. For instance Clarke hasn't been good enough to take a leap of faith on and build around to go lotto or late lotto when there might be a Moses Moody in that range that is wayyyyyy easier to plug into a borderline playoff or contending team.

I like Boston and Jackson. Not sure about Clarke yet. He's probably fine.

Neither Boston or Clarke are lottery talents. Neither should be taken in the top 25. This might be the worst recruiting classes for Duke and Kentucky combined I've ever seen. Experts told me this was a strong draft class. How?

clyde21 · Post #20 » by **clyde21** » Mon Dec 14, 2020 5:36 am

Boston is easily a lotto talent, so is Johnson

how many Duke/Kentucky players went in the top20 in the last draft?
