2017-2018 College Basketball / '18 NBA Draft Thread

Can Brunson have at least a 10 year NBA career? Can he be a solid backup PG?

I was thinking the Sixers should draft him with the late 1st or early 2nd to be the future backup pg, he can run the 2nd unit and he can also shoot which is a plus over TJ. Would you take him and trade TJ?

I would take him over TJ.

Brunson is much better than TJ coming into the league. But that isn't saying much. The bigger issue is the contract. There is no way I'd extend TJ for anything more than the veterans minimum. Some team looking for "grit" will throw away 3-5 million per on him, but I hope it's not the 76ers.

I hope they wouldn’t either, we are seeing the true TJ now. He is useless on defense now as he’s too short, more useless playing sg lol

Depends on the situation, if we're above the cap anyway we can use his bird rights to have 10 MPG energy guy from the bench. Who knows whether he develops a shot over the next few summers.

If we draft Jalen Brunson, he'd have to transform into more of a setshooter and play off-ball to Markelle Fultz on our 2nd unit. Given that, I'd probably elect to go more for a 3&D prospect at #23. Like a Josh Okogie or Shake Milton. Both are defensive players that are used to making assisted threes.

I was thinking Fultz would be starting and Brunson would be backup pg off the bench long term.

[Kobblehead]

Right now, it's hard for me to envision that day. Ben and Markelle are both currently unwilling shooters. Even when Fultz becomes willing, I'm anticipating mid-to-low 30's three point shooting from him.

What’s the highest you think Mikal Bridges could get drafted and the lowest you think he can get drafted?

Tony Carr declared and signed an agent.

Any info? Local Kid apparently; Had some big nights everytime I check Penn St. Box scores.

I think he has pretty good shooting skill, pretty nice handle and he's not a bad distributor. His problems are that he's a terrible finisher, he's a pretty bad defender and his shot selection is pretty crappy.

I think of all the Penn State kids, Mike Watkins seems the most interesting. He has some freaky tools.
