obvious but Wieskamp just withdrew from the draft.

one of my early favorites for 2020.

Iggy Braz officially staying in (kind of obvious with Beilein going to NBA)

So Orlando doesn't take a guard with Fultz still a big ? and Fournier aging? I doubt it given Bamba is still on the roster that they would take Fernando at 16. I like THT or Goga to the Spurs.

No offense to any Orlando fans on this board, but I've absolutely hated how they've drafted recently. Knowing them, they'll probably take someone long and athletic no matter what position they play. Seems to be John Hammond's draft philosophy.

You may hate it, but Magic fans seem pretty happy. Isaac has been tremendous, Bamba is definitely a project because of his weight but his offense was farther along than expected.

I doubt we take another big. I think NAW, Keldon Johnson, Langford, or THT are our FO's top options at 16.

What is this about? Guys are just skipping height/wingspan/standing reach measurements now?

My guess is they all feel pretty locked in the top 4 and measurements would most likely only hurt Garland.

Garland isn’t locked into top 4. But he may feel locked into #2 pg.

he's top 6 at worst, not dropping below Phoenix.

Yeah say what they will about Herro's ws which is crap for an off guard , his 8'4.5" standing reach is good. I was disappointed he did not participate in athletic testing so he will take a hit for that from me.
There is no denying his shooting is high level.

Should go back for another year and work on that j... right now he is a late first at best prospect and more likely mid 2nd.
His rebounding is his best asset.

That's whatni think as well ! But what are the options for him ? Can he come back to University even after putting his name on ? or does he have time to put his name out yet ?

No, this is not a recent development for players at the top of the draft. Players want to get picked as high as possible and failing that, want to be in a good situation. By not getting measured at the combine they force the teams at the top of the draft to actually bring them in for a workout to get that information, which then gives them more leverage with teams picking later as they can point to the workouts as evidence they're in consideration for the #1 or #2 pick or whatever.

Walt Perrin of the Jazz talking about the draft, I completely agree with his assessment. There are a lot of good projects here in this draft, but they’re projects. A lot of these guys will need time.

Dude basically said some generic good stuff about Queta's workout with them and then just "he'll be great again Utah St this year". Straight savage lol

He has a really good eye for talent and evaluating. I’ve been listening to his interviews for years.
