2016 Draft

I also have my eye on Cheick Diallo (That is if the NCAA will finally let him play!).

Another 5 star recruit, who ended up being the MVP in the McD's All-American game. The kid is bright and has a motor on him that just doesnt quit.

Seems most mocks have him bouncing around the 10-15 range. The longer he sits out the lower he will fall, but the talent is there.

Yes, I think one mock I was looking at the other day .net? had him going to us. I tried to pull up his stats in the Kansas game the other night but he didn't play.

Did you think you had him? Was he ever rumored to be leaning NC State?

He was allegedly a lock for about a year and a half. Every Insider thought he was a lock for NCSU. His AAU point guard Dennis Smith JR. already signed with NCSU etc etc. I could go on and on. I am in full meltdown mode. Calimari does it again. How does he stay under the salary cap?

I saw that same comment on an espn article about this. I hate Kentucky Basketball. Glad they are the team AZ beat in their championship year.

Same old Calipari. Offer a kids mom a job at the school etc. that is the rumor. Can't blame Bam for going. Cal has a proven track record.

Me too! I'm a big fan of Sean and Archie Miller for obvious reasons. Go Pack!!

Why is Amile Jefferson not even in the top 100 prospects on Draft express? 16 points, 7/8 FG (mostly put backs) and 15 rebounds, 8 offensive tonight against Kentucky. Averaging 15 and 12 so far this season. Worth a second rounder in my book.

Are you just messing with me Miyagi?? Amile was down to NCSU and Duke and he picked Duke. Can't blame him either.

Sorry, Pack. Didn't want to throw salt in your wounds.

Skal Labissiere is going to be a huge beast. His post game looks so refined already, and physical attributes are crazy. Very skilled and athletically gifted big man.

I have a feeling he will be the next AD/ KAT elite big man to come out of Kentucky and dominate in the NBA

How 'bout those Cats over Boise State tonight? This is going to be a good season.

Labissiere is skilled, but the guy doesnt even try to pass the ball, he is clueless in terms of what makes a big man a good big, setting screens, work on the boards, be physical, and has a suspect history, I am not sold at all.

Four guys in double figures and 15 boards from Mr. Anderson. Gonzaga will show us how good we really are.

I think it's still a little too early to make too much of a judgement on these guys. Though Ben Simmons and those boards were impressive last night. You don't often see freshmen in their first few games playing like he has looked at times...even the hyped ones.

I was very impressed by James Webb III (Boise St) yesterday... he's a very skilled player with some vicious athleticism.
He'll be 23 in the Draft but I think he has a role in the NBA.

Man, there sure are a lot of power forwards slated to go in next year's lottery. Makes you wonder what it would take to get into one of those spots.

Our annual 14th pick.

Who would you prefer to take with the Washington pick?
