What stat was it that Delon, Pascal and Poeltl were all near the top in during their college careers? Think was net rating, RAPM or something similar? I can't recall but the raps clearly value certain advanced stats when evaluating prospects.

Giannis, Gobert, Kawhi, Lowry, Pascal all came out of weak drafts.
Off topic but that imagine that as a starting 5

Prolly going to play for Lousiveville next year. however picking him up in the 2nd or undrafted would be ideal
Ayo Dosunmu in the first

Re: Raps 2020 Picks (Prospect Watch)
He rebounds at a high rate and blocks a ton of shots, I watched a bunch of tape on him. He is definitely someone I think Masai looks at if we're thinking of drafting big, not in the first round though.

The interesting development is he’s gotten stronger and is attacking at the rim now
He made 3 shots at the rim in the half court in Arkansas' first game of the season. He made 14 of them all of last year.
So promising growth

What's impressive is that with all the GM's putting high value on 2nd round picks these days, Masai has basically gone away from that and created his own trend of undrafted guys. He's the first to put an emphasis on that.
From my infinite wisdom of following the draft for 25 years the media doesn't know ****.
my thoughts exactly.

Agreed, just one game and they stomped the opposition but still looked promising. That was my main concern with him, not so much the heigh at 6'5 (He's two inches taller than Powell), but rather how thin he is. I'm sure Masai will take a look. You can't teach shooting like that.
I think him being around with our 2nd Round pick is a long shot, he's going to go in the 1st Round without question if he keeps this up if not early 2nd.

I’d be surprised if he didn’t go in the first tbh
Elite shooter+ actually good team defender + smart player all around (great screen setter for example)
If he shows any growth at all in playmaking he might go top 20
