2026 NBA DRAFT CLASS

[eminence]

Spectacular first half of basketball.

Flemings the only guy on the floor who can consistently create offense, impressed so far.

Not for this draft class, but I like Toure, lot of tools there.

Momcilovic with some decent defensive sequences switching on the perimeter and of course the shooting. Really expect he'll look great in the pros.

Is Flemings comp Darius garland?

Seems to look for his own shot more often than that. Or at least the pro version of Garland.

[Chi town]

Flemings is a winner. Plays both sides and competes. Garland is just a good scorer and shooter.

[Eatgreenz]

Flemings is very impressive

[eminence]

Flemings was great - got a little loose with his passes towards the end when ISU was really looking to force him to pass, but overall a great game from him.

Cenac was invisible.

Got just enough from everybody for ISU. Lipsey is the Ames GOAT.

[Chi town]

I wouldn’t draft Cenac. He needs stay another year. Problem is one more year and he could vet exposed and be a 2nd rounder.

Id only take him in the 2nd if all the other C’s were drafted.

[JMAC3]

Flemings was good, but felt like Iowa State adjusted and was keeping him out of the paint the final 7 mins of the game. Iowa State ended game on 17-4 run and it could have been worse if Iowa State wasn't awful from the line, they shot 11/22 from FT.

Flemings didn't really do any damage at the rim, he hit 4 threes which is a lot for him and he got to FT 0 times. Had a few tough midrange pull ups but I think Iowa State defended him pretty well and would live with the shots he took 10/10 times.

[TheSuzerain]

Flemings = Maxey?

[babyjax13]

Flemings = Maxey?

I see some Devin Harris.

[King Ken]

I wouldn’t draft Cenac. He needs stay another year. Problem is one more year and he could vet exposed and be a 2nd rounder.

Id only take him in the 2nd if all the other C’s were drafted.

I would draft him but why come out this year to go to the Gleague and be a late 1st pick when you can be a top 5 to 10 pick next year

[Chi town]

Flemings = Maxey?

Not nearly the athlete or volume scorer.

I think Flemings is a much better leader and PG. Maxey is more SG like Dame or Curry. Flemings makes others better.

Flemings a better scorer at this stage than Maxey was. Also looks to be bigger. I do think that Maxey isn't a great comparison though. He's on of the quickest guys in the league, and on the smaller side at 6'2. Flemings looks to be 6'3 or 4 and a much better shooter at this stage.

[vincecarter4pres]

Flemings = Maxey?

Philon is more Maxey stylistically imho.

Flemings is going to measure like 6-2.25, he isn't a big guard.

All these guards are probably 1-2 inches shorter than they are listed.

[BigGargamel]

I know he's not considered a first round pick but JT Toppin tearing his ACL sucks. He was one of the best college players out there.

[SeattleJazzFan]

Toppin and Richie Saunders who is another second round guy who probably finds a way to stick, both with ACLs.

[Klomp]

Dailyn Swain continues his march towards all-SEC. Some is going to take him with a late first/early second and then sic him on your favorite perimeter scorer.

Teams to keep an eye on: OKC (via Houston pick), Denver and Sacramento (top of round 2).

Reminds me of Jaden McDaniels....funny enough, that was from watching offensive highlights more than defensive.

Lot of red flags around him, 3 straight years of bad 3pt shooting. Only averaged 11 ppg for Xavier last year as a soph.

Yeah, that's called development.

Each year he has gotten better and better.

I wouldn’t let Shelton Henderson out of the 1st round if I was a team at the end of the 1st
