Future updates coming

I think you definitely need Dwayne Bacon, Alonzo Trier, and Antonio Blakeney as 1 and done guys. Alot of those projections are wayyyy off as well in my opinion. It is a real early mock though.

I dont like Bacon in the 1st, even if he is a one&done, he will probably, he is 20.
Blakeney I think might go back to school, strong G play in LSU this season and he might no shine, Trier a bit of the same, I think he will try to do too much and be inefficient.

Mykhailiuk i don't see being drafted period. He's just lacking a lot of passion. Not as skilled as people thought either.

This upcoming season will tell a lot on him. He was young and not ready for high level college hoops. I expect to see a much better season from him this year.

dragan bender? awesome name

Personally I think Jaylen Brown is better than Simmons

I hae to second this.

I'm surprised Ford is mocking the Bucks and Bulls to both miss the playoffs, unless he is guessing that both trade up?

Love where the Nuggets are picking but give us Skal Labissiere

He's just a sophomore and younger than 95% of the incoming freshman. Don't think he's even turned 18 yet.

I believe he's a year away and won't quite be ready for the 2016 draft but he showed some good last year. Has a high BBIQ, was usually a step ahead on making the correct pass, good athleticism, and showed good lateral quickness and potential on defense. Has to show he can consistently put the ball on the floor and score and he must show he can consistently knock down the 3. Has great form but needs it to translate to game.

He may start this year but at worse he'll be a rotation player. KU camp games and practices for World University Games he showed improvement in the areas and looked bigger and more athletic. I think he'll be a good player but won't really explode until his junior year.

I watched some more tape, U19WC included and changed the standings after the FA is kind of done

Mock Draft 2016

selects... Tyler Ulis PG Kentucky
selects... Nigel Hayes SF/PF Wisconsin
selects... Daniel Hamilton SG/SF Connecticut
selects... Malik Pope SF San Diego St.

Ulis in the 1st after his sophomore yr??


Thats my main man but even i'd be shock at that. Gonna take big leaps in creation/finishing skills.

A 5'9 point guard being taken in the first round. Seems unlikely.

How does 2016 stack up against 2015 and 2014?

I think 15' and 14' are more less similar, but 16' is clearly a let down, that doesn't mean that it is going to be a monumental blunder or a weak Draft, but more so of a normal one.
Still long way to go, I like the potential depth but I am not so sure about the strength at the top, I am not buying in any player yet been a legit franchise player potentially at the next level, for example.

What turns you off of Simmons, Brown, Bender(I see him as a beta) or Skal?

With Simmons scoring ability, he lacks shooting obviously, but he is going to have a hard time transitioning from this type of level to pros with his athleticism and the type of game he has, I see him better as a complimentary guy than an alfa, but he is also really ball dominant and aggressive, he could bust hard, I have my doubts.
Brown, I need to see more, helluva athlete but motor runs hot and cold, needs to add a midrange game, ballhandling, and shooting, he has the tools but he is still raw.
Bender is more about him been the type of big he is, without the elite athleticism, although he is huge, plays hard and is quick, coordinated and has tremendous feeling, he can be an All Star big, but I dont see him as an alfa.
Similarly with Skal, he is more of a smooth big, that can do several things but doesnt look like a focal point to me.

You need to update his position.

BTW, your mock is my favorite.
