The guy needs his own thread. Only 18 years old. Super impressive start.

I always saw him as a great college type who would struggle in the NBA but I could be wrong. He's a lot more athletic than I recalled.

I'm getting Cooper Flagg vibes without the 3. The way he dominated last night was something crazy. If he gets a 3 ball are we looking at the #1 overall pick?

He's from a family of NFL players. He was a dominant prep player.

If my team drafts him, I'd want him at the 3.

No Ceilings brought up Aaron Gordon as a comp.

That's exactly who I see, too.

Me too, but looks more fluid with enhanced finesse, which gives him more likelihood to be a good #2 option.

I see the Aaron Gordon comps and I see a lot of David Lee in him as well. Definitely high on him as a prospect.

Lee is a fun company offensively. If Peat can hit threes that makes some sense. Millsap might be an upper end comp?

Apparently both his father and brother were linemen in the NFL
