2019 Draft Prospect Watch Thread

[SpeedyG]

With the proper coaching & motivation, I think Reddish has the tools to be the best player out of this draft. My colleague, who is a college basketball nut, agrees. He's down on Barrett & very high on Porter Jr.

Reddish has tools (as do many in this draft) but it hasn't materialized and he looks a clear step below zion and even Barrett right now.

But that's exactly why I'm kind of down on this class.

Too many young guys at the top that we're having to project.

Bol has tools. Reddish, Barrett, Porter, Little all have athletic tools. But not everyone toolsy develops for one reason or another.

For every Greek freak, you get an Anthony Randolph or Stro Swift.

That's what I'm getting at when I say that I'm not enamored with this class.

I definitely disagree with this

The only one who is on a class of their own in this draft is Zion.

Barrett is the clear second in terms of the combination of skills with an addition of an above average physical attributes. However, I would never project him as the definite second best player of the draft class. Barrett is simply in the spotlight just because of the combination of factors of his his high school credential and the choice of him going into a top notch school and making a super team with other top recruits. Yet, I would never say he is a tier ahead of Porter, Nassir, Bol, Cam, Morant, Sekou, and Rui. Barrett simply made the right choices to market himself.

I don’t understand this statement that these players are project players. None of these players above you can say are raw. All of them are putting up good numbers and show a high level of skills. The biggest knock you can say towards the top recruits are body development (which is normal) outside of that imo they are mostly a sure thing they will produce. It will just depends if they will produce winning basketball. Biggest project in the top recruit is Naz Reid and that’s pretty much it. In terms of development, that will be determined on draft night from which team they will land. We all know i.e. Orlando, Knicks, suns, Cleveland, Minnesota, Detroit, Philadelphia, etc are all trash team that doesn’t know how to develop young players. There are exceptions towards these rules like Greek freak or KP but I don’t want to get into that since it will take another paragraph.

The point is this class I will assure you is at the very least 12 players deep and 3-4 are all star level types of players

Bol is skilled, but where do you play him the NBA? What is his role?

Porter looks like a 6th man type right now. I'm not sure I have him as an all-star caliber potential.

Little isn't doing much at UNC and he needs to develop his perimeter skills.

Reddish looks like he's afraid of contact when driving, which is not what you want from a 6'8 guy

Barrett needs work too.

Aside from Zion, because of his obvious physical traits, I'm not sure that any of these guys have an elite trait (actually maybe Little' s athleticism might put him there) that makes me feel they are can't miss prospects.

What I mean by that is, say Ben Simmons. Not a skilled shooter, but his size/height combo with playmaking skills gives me confidence that he'll translate.

I don't get that vibe at all with any of these guys other than Zion.

Now on the flip side I have guys like Porter and Rui who I feel have a good chance at being a nice player. High floor guys that I think at worst will be rotational players, if not starter. But I 'll not sure I view them as being elite players at the next level.

Curious, what 4 players you feel confident are all star players in this draft, and why?

You can easily put Bol at center position at the starting line up in about 10 teams in the NBA. The guy without a doubt will be a good scorer in the NBA. It's not like he only plays back to the basket, he can score face-up, stretch the floor, and has ball handling skills. He is also not as slow as people claim him to be. Lacks Lateral quickness? I'd agree but I won't he won't be able to pass guys with his dribbling skills and shoot over guys with his length. Would he be a liability on the defensive end? Yes. Is Jarrett Allen a liability on the defensive end where he gives up 20/20 on a nightly basis and we claim him to be a good player? As long as he gets 30 minutes a game there is no reason where he can't average 18/8/2 at the MINIMUM. Does his impact translates into winning basketball? Most likely no. However, that never stopped players like Kevin Love, Demarcus Cousins to produce and create a rep to be all-stars. Who knows he might randomly gain 30 pounds like Hassan Whiteside become a dominant force.

How do you only see Porter to be a sixth man? Being a bench player usually means you are not a complete player. What does he lack for you to see him not to be a starter? He is 6'5 with long arms, He has wide shoulders which means he will fill up once he gets his NBA body. You can easily tell he has the physical attribute to be a starter. He also have an above average athleticism, great ball-handling skills, good scoring instinct. He literally looks like a bigger version Bradley Beal in college. The only thing I see that will be questionable with him is how efficient will he be scoring the ball. His foot-work is somewhat awkward to be just as good of an off the dribble shooter like James Harden. Is it fixable? Definitely

I agree Little is not a great offensive player but you can't just write him off just because of that reason. He is probably the second most physically gifted player in the class. His shot is not broken and he also has a ton of utility. He could easily be just as good as Jaylen Brown. Rui I'd say is in the same category as Little only difference is Rui is a lot more of a complete player but not as physically gifted. Rui looks like he is ready to go to the NBA. Sekou is also in this category to me he looks a lot like prime Luol Deng.

Obviously Zion IMO is a generational talent. So I think he is definitely think he will be an all-star. However the rest of the guys IMO are pretty much in the same tier in terms of overall talent. IMO any of the guys in the top 10 can easily be an all-star depending where they land. That is what will determine what their future leads to. But if you really want me to pick. I'd go Zion, Barrett, Rui, Porter are all-stars.

[DeRoma]

Bleacher Report has us mocked to select Romeo Langford and Jaylen Hoard.

No way we go for Langford. He is too slow and falls inlove with his shot too much, we need a physically gifted player.

Langford reminds me of Dinwiddie too much

Give me Zion or Cam from the Duke boys and I find Sekou could be a Marks type pick since International/Euro 18 year old who is a stretch 4 prospect sounds perfect.

[Claud]

Watch on YouTube

Game winner at the end.

This guy seems like a Marks' type pick as well.

[SpeedyG]

It's tough to gauge guys like Porter, but that efficiency is the difference between a Nick Young and an All-star. Right now I see him more of a Nick Young type.

Bol I'll agree is intriguing. But as I mentioned in one of my earlier posts...how do you project him? Sure he can score and you can set your bar low in that might be enough to be an all-star while not being a winning basketball player, but that's precisely why I think he (and the others) presents a risk and really doesn't excite me much. Could he be Whiteside? Sure, but Hassan was explosive. Bol is more smooth than explosive. How will bulking up affect that mobility? Not to mention for us, I have serious doubts on a Allen/Bol pairing. Intriguing and tantalizing if everything clicks? Absolutely.

Same kinda with Little. Now he is an explosive athlete. But of all the traits, athleticism isn't really the biggest translation of success in the NBA. There have been plenty of athletic freaks that didn't develop. And his utilization in UNC doesn't do him favors in trying to determine his pro potential. Athleticism should be the thing that takes you to the next level of greatness, but the foundation has to be there first. And I'm not sure I've seen enough of that to say he's for sure an all-star.

so going off your comments, is it fair to say you have Zion (tier 1), then Bol, Porter, Little (tier 2) as your all-star potentials?

I don't think Bol can physically handle NBA centers right now, he has less strength than Jarrett Allen and Allen gets his ass kicked by bigger dudes.

You don't like Reddish? He literally would be a Day 1 insert at SF.

I like Zion, Reddish, Rui, Doumbouya, Morant, and Little thus far.

I think Rui is going to be an excellent pro. The kid has all the tools and has room to get better. His athleticism isn't as good as I thought it would be.

It's pretty exciting thinking that we have a legit shot at one of these kids. I mean Zion is the obvious #1 but I would not be upset with any of the other names. I think Reddish is the best fit if we can't land #1.

There's no way you can compare Porter to Nick Young. Nick Young is a catch shoot, finishing wing. Porter is a legit one on one scoring machine. Players he needs to be compared to are Jamal Crawford, Bradley Beal, James Harden, JR Smith, Victor Oladipo. As for his scoring tendency i'm not saying he plays very inefficient because he doesn't take bad shots. It's more of a mechanical issue with his stroke. His feet are very loose which shows that he makes his shooting attempts are different in most scenarios when he decides take off the dribble shots. This infer that he makes his shots mostly through his confidence in himself not his skills. This could easily be fix.

IMO you can theoretically can make Allen/Bol combo work but it will never happen. So yeah I definitely agree with you on that part.

If I put the players on tiers I'd go with:

Tier 1
Zion

Tier 2
Barrett
Porter
Rui

Tier 3
Bol
Little
Cam
Tier 3.5
Morant
Sekou

Tier 4
Reid
Bruno
Tier 4.5
Hunter
Porter

Tier 5
Hoard
Langford
Keldon
Hands

[SpeedyG]

Go and re-read/rewatch Nick Young at USC. There's a reason he got (ill-advised) Kobe comparisons.

He wasn't just a catch and shoot/ finish guy.

I'll be ok with Cam depending on where we place on the draft. I just don't think he will be anything special. It's also hard to predict what he will produce in the next level considering what what type player he is. While he looks like he has length and height. I'm not sure how much he will grow into his body. He also doesn't have great ball control and lacks scoring creativity (then again he doesn't have to in his situation considering he is only the third option on a strong team). Point is, while he looks good shooting the ball right now with little space needed to make his shots, he needs to translate that part of his game in order for him to contribute in a much higher level in the NBA in order to be at the very least a very good third option in a winning team.

The reward is not satisfying enough to draft him around 3rd-4th place. However I'd be happy if go after him around 6-9 pick.

[Hello Brooklyn]

I'm all in on Reddish too.

Hes already a shooter and he has the body to be great defensively.

I don't think hes being used properly in Duke. But if he has his own team I think he can show off his playmaking skills.

I also think he would fit really well on this team. All we would need after that would be a free agent.
