Dash Daniels is playing a preseason game against the Pelicans, it’s ridiculous how comfortable he looks at age 17 playing against nba players.

He looked better than Fears

Mods can we get a new draft discussion or is this going to be for the 2026 class as well?

AJ from BYU dropped 30 in a exhibition vs Nebraska. Kid looks legit.

My bold preseason prediction is that all the current talk about whether Peterson or Dybantsa is #1 in the class is going to become moot eventually and Boozer will eventually be consensus #1.

I obviously hope boozer is amazing, but Dybantsa would be the pick right now. And after the season.

I'm on team tank watching those highlights (not that tanking does anything at all anymore)

I'm talking out of my ass a bit here, so I could end up being completely wrong. I just think hes going to be so insanely productive and efficient, but I do get why people view Dybantsa and Peterson as more translatable to the NBA. At a certain point I think the sheer level of production from Boozer could become too much to ignore. I feel like he could put up crazy numbers for the season.

Sorry I was barely paying attention and didn't realize this was the 2025 thread. Just saw "general draft discussion" and started spitting.
