Man.. Luka cannot hang out with that Lofton kid. They'll both gain 30 lbs every week.

But Lofton does make Chet look like Shawn Bradley. I think Miami gets a steal in Jovic. OKC is actually better off taking Jobari Smith.

Jovic is pretty good... But white european ass are underrated every time in the draft.

I'm sold on Hardy, he has THJ knack of driving into pack lane with no plan, but he's showing good signs

Lawson is a killer!

Hardy seems doesn't afraid to attack the rim... Maybe a little bit tunnel vision but good approach.

He will take a lot of blocks playing in this way...

Hardy's got shades of a young Jerry Stackhouse. He will need to polish his game a bit as he matures. He's only 19.

Hardy is solid but I'm most impressed with Lawson so far.

Lawson is aggressive and athletic as hell and has a nice shooting touch too.
Looks like he could be a keeper.

Yeah but he hasn't been playing much. Been a foul machine and not really doing much.

Yes but you can't really tell when he's on the floor.
Not impressing me so far.
I thought he had more of an all around game but seems to be nothing more than a big stiff like Moses Brown.

So far Lawson is the only keeper other than Hardy.

The good thing is that Hardy is for real.
Should be able to get a good opportunity under Kidd.

I'm not watching, but if Pajola looks good, then level of competition must be pretty low.

Level isn't good, it's summer league, but he looks like a good defender and playmaker, can't score though.
Lawson can translate easily to higher level.

Hardy really needs to get better at finishing at the rim. Most of his drives haven't gone well.

His mid range repertoire is really good though. That part of his game is very Beal-esque.
