Mason Jones with a monster game, he is probably the most underrated prospect out there

What's the trajectory for a PG without a jumper to be drafted high?

Ja just went 2nd

Ja is an athletic specimen, plays with fire under his ass, elite character.

Lamelo is no slouch of an athlete and at 6'7 doing most of the things he can do, the passes he can make I don't think there's any reason not to put him near the top. Definitely top two. As far as the fire and character. Lonzo comes to work and dont ever remember him having issues with professionalism and this is with your father wilding out everywhere. You could still think hes a bum for all I care but I think the narrative that its not about basketball is fake news which seems justified by thier fathers marketing plan. At the end of the day they know you still gotta come in and perform.

LaMelo is an average athlete. Ja's bounce is slam-dunk champion level strong. Plus, Ja plays 110 MPH at all times.

I wouldnt. He almost isn't playable for UK at the moment. That is one that I do feel comfortable on patting myself on the back, just never saw it with him.

Still dont see a lotto pick between Duke/UK as of yet. Tre might be the highest pick from both teams.

i like Josh Green man, he's not shooting well but you can tell he's an NBA player by all of the little things he does well, he won't be a star but I'd be happy with him in the top10.

Info I'm getting over here is that Terry Armstrong is unplayable at the NBL level right now. Supposedly low IQ, poor feel, and when I spoke to Mitch Creek, he suggested he's still getting his body up to the level needed for pro ball. Some people I've heard from think he won't get minutes all season.

I don’t buy that Lamelo is 6’7. He’s not a great athlete, and his jumper is busted as hell. He’ll need new mechanics in the NBA.

It's just ridiculous how HS hype works, those dudes were obviously ass in HS anyway, but they got ranked high and...

hmm do you guys think possible knee issue is why Cole looks not as athletic as expected? would also help explain his poor finishing.

Agreed. It's weird that he's on so few people's radar as far as I have seen.

Sure, age, lack of exposure and not the most eye-popping athleticism are reasons why he's not talked about more. But this guy is really good, fairly versatile and should be able to find his role in the NBA.

Well regardless of how much you think the injury has been holding him back from peak form, it at least shows that the surrounding talent is lacking enough that they can't beat Wofford at home without him. That should at least excuse some of his inefficiency.
