Uber athlete, motor, work ethic. I do not care about that stuff anymore. Been there done that.

Can you shoot a damn basketball?

A little surprised Edey pulled out of the draft. Could of sworn I heard hype around him being taken late firet round. Purdue must be thrilled though

After listening to that video I am 100% sure I am taking Nikola Durisic with #2

Overnight I have fallen in love with Omari Moore's game. Is he the next SGA? huuuuuuuuge sleeper. Better keep an eye on him

Couldn't agree more. Other great SF's are Jordan Miller, Yannick Kraag, Jalen Slawson, Andre Jackson and Alex Fudge...

Also Roko Prkacin would be a GREAT draft and stash player. He is more of a PF tho

Should be 2-3 really good options on the board at 27 that nobody expects to be there. I would go upside with that pick and then second round grab a bunch of good upper classmen and maybe a draft and stash guy. Wouldn't be the worst thing to have a stacked summer league and gleague team.

UNCNYC · Post #1572 » by **UNCNYC** » Thu Jun 1, 2023 3:53 pm

My picks as of now how changed due to Omari Moore. This draft imo is weak at the PF position so it might be good to grab a PF early on. Right now my picks are

1. Bobi Clintman - Trade back and get 2/3 future 1st rounders
2. Nikola Durisic - if hes not here Omari Moore
3. Jalen Wilson
4. Kobi Bufkin
5. Agustin UBAL or Roko Prkacin - Draft and Stash

Only PF's I really like are Bobi Clintmon, Jaime Jaquez, Drew Petterson, Roko Prkacin, Brice Sensabough, Noah Clowney, Joey Hauser

UNCNYC · Post #1573 » by **UNCNYC** » Thu Jun 1, 2023 9:27 pm

I truly <3 Kobe Bufkin. He has such a savvy veterans game. I change my picks because this draft doesn't have much SG depth imo. Probably best to grab the PF and SG and let Durisic fall since I have insurance with him in Omari Moore. They both offer similar style of play imo.

1. Bobi Clintman - Trade back and get 2/3 future 1st rounders
2. Kobe Bufkin
3. Nikola Durisic - if hes not here Omari Moore
4. Jalen Wilson - or Andre Jackson, Colby Jones, Jordan Miler
5. Agustin UBAL or Roko Prkacin - Draft and Stash

Bufkin?

You mean Kobe Scrawnykin

UNCNYC · Post #1575 » by **UNCNYC** » Thu Jun 1, 2023 11:08 pm

Update. Since Kobe Bufkin might be hard to get I think we should trade back to no further than 10. I had Kobe ranked for years. Glad to see him rise so high.

1. Kobe Bufkin - pick up at least another future 1st maybe even 2.
2. Bobi Klintman - or Brice Sensabaugh, Noah Clowney (that way we get our pf)
3. Nikola Durisic - or Omari Moore if hes not there
4. Jalen Wilson - or Andre Jackson, Colby Jones, Jordan Miller
5. Agustin UBAL or Roko Prkicon or Yannick Craig - Draft and Stash

Melo / Martin
Bufkin / Durisic
Miles / Wilson
PJ / Klintman
Williams / Richards

Plus 2 future 1st. Trade Rozier and Hayward for ANYTHING

Edey withdrew from the draft. Remember talking about him before.

LofJ · Post #1577 » by **LofJ** » Sat Jun 3, 2023 2:28 pm

Marcus Sasser would be a nice Rozier replacement.

Not sure what to think of Tristen Vukcevic yet but I am a pretty big fan of Zvonimir Ivisic. I think he has a twin brother.

I think he would make a great Draft and Stash center. Very athletic for his size and is a good shooter

Prolly my last draft and stash recommended player of this draft. But I really like this guy. He doesn't do anything fancy but reminds me kind of a young Drazen Petrovic. Some consider him the best shooter in the draft.

Fedor Zugic - not a fancy player but has a warriorness to his game

Finally some footage. This is Patrick Gardner. I have him as the #1 rated Center in this draft
