Player-hater:

High IQ, high fundamentals player.

But think it's a reach..he's 11th on my big board..a reach at 3..

Rich man’s Pritchard without the spunk. IMO he went a bit high, but damn that shooting is incredible.
I could see that 100% NBA skill being enough of a sure thing to pick him there.

Everyone is focusing on his shooting, but his defensive stats are kind of crazy too, per 40: 3.4 steals, 1 block, versus 2.6 fouls

Or maybe he will prove me wrong..

I had him pegged as a lesser Damien Inglis.

Either we are missing something, or the Hornets need new management.

So, if the Celts keep the 30th pick, who do you want them to draft. I would really like them to get DaRon Holmes. Have never seen him play, but his specs jump out at me for someone who may be available at the time we pick.

Can Celtics make a run at Williams using Pritchard and Kornett? Plus picks?

Dogen · Post #553 » by **Dogen** » Thu Jun 27, 2024 1:00 am

Spurs building young perimeter around Wemby

Would be great but he'll probably be long gone.

No, can’t combine salaries plus kornet is a free agent

If not, at least short gone via DEN at 28.

No, can’t match salary except with Derrick White under 2nd apron rules.

did spurs get smart?

Hal14 · Post #560 » by **Hal14** » Thu Jun 27, 2024 1:02 am

I like Dillingham. He';s the best prospect in the draft imo.

I don't know how it;s gonna work with him and Castle on the same team though.

Castle said several times in the media leading up to the draft that he wants to play PG.

Dillingham is gonna want to play PG.

Why would they draft 2 guys in the top 8 picks who will both want to play PG?

Should have picked 1 of them..and then the other pick, go with a wing or a 4..
