I like Da Silva too, but I think his tournament play put him out of our range.

Not if the guy has to be a combo forward. Otherwise it's Beekman.

Think Dunn could be there at 23? Seems like he’s got a similar style as Josh Hart but taller?

Two year window for a title. No way in hell we are drafting someone w a first round pick. We need known quantities.

The problem is that he has zero offensive game aside from dunking. We'll see if he puts in some work before the draft and improves his game.

No thanks on Dunn. I don’t see him ever being Bruce Bowen and I absolutely hate his offensive game. Da Silva is way better imo.

Bobi Klintman is the guy you take a chance on if you want a Jaden McDaniels type dude, not Dunn.

Hunter Sallis reminds me a bit of Ayo Dosunmu who I liked a lot coming out. Watching some highlights of his better games (Duke/NC State) were pretty fun.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft Thread
Ppl still sleeping on Bub Carrington. I watched him all year, he showed up in every big game down the stretch. He’s gonna be a steal if someone gets him outside the lottery. Not sure what ppl see in dudes like McCain, Dillingham and Collier that they don’t see in Carrington. Give me that size and length with his skill set all day.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft Thread
Definitely warming up to Carrington. The shooting has room to grow, plus wingspan guy, and takes care of the ball pretty well (2.1 TO's per-36) despite his usage. Not an outlier tier athlete and he really needs to reign back his shot selection (way too many inefficient pull-ups and fadeaways), but there's some NAW comparisons to be made.

Brazile to me is one of the more intriguing talents in the draft. If you watch him for the right 5 minutes, you'd fully believe he's a top 5 pick, an Amar'e-esque big who can finish with explosion, pop, and hit 1-2 dribble pull ups. Long 6-10, fluid mover, quick off his feet, soft touch. But he vanishes.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft Thread
Yeah, Brazile looks like a lottery pick if you just watch his highlight reel. But I just can't get over the complete lack of production and effort/hustle plays for a guy that turns 22 in 7-months. Reminds me way too much of Christian Wood, and ultimately that's probably why he goes in the late-2nd/undrafted range.

He wouldn't fill this team's biggest need, but if anyone is gonna be the Austin Reaves of this draft class, it'll be Pelle Larsson.

I've always really liked Oso's BBIQ. Great passer and can not only make the pass but knows when/where.

He's been a standout for me since I started taking a closer look at this class. He's a really good player with all the physical tools he'll need who is just too deliberate about picking his spots. For where he's being projected, he's phenomenal value. You know he's going to execute within his role, and there's more to unlock there. Watching U of A games, it is incredibly frustrating to see him take a back seat to Caleb Love. He's a much better player, he just has a conscience. Another guy I'd be fine with for either pick.

I get big DJ Wilson vibes from him. Haven't seen him in NBL but when I watched him for Wake last year, he was a do not touch guy.

Totally agree, he's going to have to speed up his process.
