2022 Draft Prospects Thread :Bulls get 18th pic: Poll added

[Dresden]

Mark Williams is growing on me more and more. The problem is that I don't expect him to be available at 18th. He measured at 7'2 with shoes, 9'9 standing reach, and 7'6 wingspan. He's already a good defender but with those measurement the sky is the limit defensively. I see a lot of potential in Williams and I believe he could turn out to be a very special player. His peak to me is Rudy Gobert if he reaches his potential.

Yeah I honestly think he's being under-rated due to the fact that everyone wants 5's that shoot 3's nowadays. That, and the fact that he doesn't have a lot of offensive upside. But jeez, defensively he looks like he could be a top 3 center in the league. For a team like the Bulls that have a lot of wings, some of which do not defend that well, he seems made to order for Chicago. He also has NBA ready strength and weight.

[Dresden]

He will be long gone by Bulls pick.
He’s going to be a winning player. Big impact.

I worry about his poor shooting- under 30% on 3's, 60% free throws. He's going to have take a big step forward in that dept. if he's going to make an impact at the next level.

And KB’s vert was tops.

That's intriguing. He is supposedly one of the most explosive players in the draft. If his shot has improved that much, he would be a good option at 18, which is where draftnet has him going.

I’d be happy with Brown. Plug him into Javontae role day one. His ceiling is a 3/4 Lonzo 3D player with a big motor. He will fill in and get strong and be a handful in both ends.

The shooter we need to get with a 2nd.

Interesting because the Bulls have zero chance of drafting him at 18. They’d have to be doing heavy due diligence, or are looking to move up.

If Zach really wants Portland, a sign and trade for Simons and a drafted Mathurin would be an incredible return. Not sure a double sign and trade can work, although Portland is operating under the cap.

Yeah - Gabriele Procida just entered the chat for me.

[PrimzyBulls81]

Eason SF, Williams C, Brown SF, Kessler C , EJ Liddell SF/PF --- any of these 5 if they drop to #18 would be good,but for Eason and Williams I'm pretty sure will be gone 99% ?!

I bet Coby & 18 or Javonte and 18 gets you moving up. I assume they are working on something.

The draft is fluid, it is possible that one of the lottery prospects drop. These prospects are trying to find their ceiling and floor.

[Chicago-Bull-E]

Regarding the Baylor 4s. They aren’t my favorite guys, but they do fill the hardest position to fill, defensive 4s that can shoot.

But Sochan is an irritant. I’d have a difficult time rooting for him.

Watch on YouTube

Not a huge fan of Kendall Brown either, he completely disappears from entire games. If you Pat is bad, Kendall would be worse on that regard.

I’m hoping they both get drafted before the Bulls and push down guys I really want.

The guy that put that video together is a complete dweeb, but watching that game live, it’s clear Sochan likes to irritate opponents. I was thinking to myself “How do Baylor fans root for this dude with a straight face?”

I don’t think it’ll be nearly enough to jump up. I think if you add the Portland pick, you may get someone to bite around 10, but he may be gone by then.

He’s also pretty clearly a shooting guard. I don’t love what it says about Lavine coming back.

But again, it’s likely just due diligence. Guys drop all the time.

[Chi town]

Yeah - Gabriele Procida just entered the chat for me.

Wondering if he flies up draft boards due to the lack of shooting in the draft and the ends up late 1st. His defense isn’t great due to his lack of side to side athleticism but he plays with an edge and is high IQ. He plays hard and aggressive.

That video editor is so unbelievably biased. He went off for 2 minutes on a dirty leg lock, then ignored the leg lock the UNC player did two plays later to instead talk about flopping.

That being said, I'm still all in on the Baylor PFs if Williams is gone, which is looking more and more likely. Kendall did play tentative at times this year, but I've seen how he can play when he's more of an offensive focus. His last two years of HS tape is pretty amazing. Jeremy reminds me very much of Aaron Gordon, and that's not a bad get for a mid first round pick.

If the Bulls can get Simons and Portland's pick for Zach then they should take it and run.

Sam Venecie of The Athletic has Tari Eason to Chicago as well in his latest mock.

Drills are worthless as indicators of in game performance.
