So, besides staying out of trouble, what does Emoni need to do this year to be drafted in 2023? What about to be drafted in the first round?

needs to be a dramatically better shooter, like 45/38/80 or better on high volume considering his poor physical profile. anything short of that I don't see him being taken in the 1st tbh.

What's interesting in his tiny sample last year is the huge split b/t home and away games..and it is funny b/c their toughest games were mostly at home, too

H (10 games): 11/4/2 on 42/39/69 shooting
A (6 games): 10/4/1 on 33/22/58 shooting

Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised to see his shooting improve dramatically with less competition, another year of physical development, and a larger sample. I don't think he's a first-round prospect, though, especially in 2023 (there are a million really good wings this draft).

He is still an elite finisher and he plays bigger than his wing span suggests. He looked like an nba player on the eye test last year and he’s young.

Silly how a few weeks ago he wasn't ever playing in the league and now he's a 1st rounder. Funny how things change. I always stuck by this kids side through thick and thin.

I am not seeing anyone suggesting he is a first rounder here.

People said that he played very poorly, measured and performed his combine very poorly, and made extremely poor decisions.

How did getting a charge dropped change any of that? It’s all still true.
