Well, the last guy we drafted who was a 22 year PF, couldn't shoot 3s, and was compared to Kenneth Faried turned out pretty good for us...

He looks big in college....But i feel once he hits the NBA he will have to change his game a little....Isaiah Stewart comp is good one but Isaiah is lited 6 foot 8....Hes going to have to develop a 3 ball....6 foot 6 just too undersized to be a big in the NBA

I don't know much about Mogbo at all but admittedly I'm not excited about the pick right now. Will need to start watching the summer league.

It's a homer.

Combine that with his wingspan, strength, athleticism and he can guard 4's no problem. Watch him out on a basketball floor and he does not look undersized at all. He's very explosive and a lob threat but also has some wiggle in his game, there is some shades of Siakam with the way he moves out there, a lot to work with and mold despite his age.

Everyone else is wearing shoes too.
So add 1.25 inches to everyone else.

This was the type of player I wanted us to target. A 3/4/5 was badly needed. Let’s hope he can play.

I think we likely develop him similar to Siakam, will probably spend some time in the G League where we allow him to play a lot more with the ball in his hands.

I don't know why but Mogbo reminds me of former Raptor Joey Dorsey LOL.

Gonna regret passing on filipowski, this bench needed someone like him, would have been a perfect fit.

MainEvent · Post #97 » by **MainEvent** » Thu Jun 27, 2024 9:12 pm

IQ, Dick/Walter, Scottie(especially if his 3 takes another step) Mogbo and Kelly would be a cool lineup
lots of smart passers and good amount of shooting. Beastmode Mogbo and Scottie can make up for Kelly's rim protection and rebounding. poa defense still be a problem tho
