Most drafts don't have a clear #1 at this point of the season.

We’ve never seen a center run the floor like Giannis.

Then James Wiseman was born.

Anthony Davis who is a far better athlete than Wiseman, was drafted 7 years ago

Killian Hayes has been playing some impressive ball lately

Shooting 36% from 3 and 90% from the line.

This step back in particular is interesting

If you buy the jumper I think he’s a lottery talent

Cole Anthony doesn't seem to be even 50% the athlete people were hyping him up to be. He is skilled, yet he has not shown much explosivness and is first step is above average at best. He seems crafty and a great shooter with good handles and IQ, but his passing was nothing spectacular. Overall, the point guards in this draft do not seem as special as they were said to be.

^ not sure what you were watching, he's most definitely a plus plus athlete at his position, don't think he's quite Morant level athletically but he's definitely up there

Last night was my fist time laying eyes on him, but I tend to agree with the other poster. He didn't seem very explosive, but makes up for it with high level BBIQ, great shooting and a good handle. Doesn't look like he will really need to be some uber athlete going forward...similar to Trae in that aspect.

Smarts can go a long way to making up for some athletic shortcomings.

His AAU athleticism hasn't translated and didn't at Oak Hill for me. That said, he is crafty and swifty like Trae Young but his shooting form is pure and he already has tremendous instincts which we saw in HS.

I don't know if he is a 10 apg guy but no one on this level will stop him. His energy level is crazy good too.

I am team Edwards #1 overall but Anthony might be the best player in this class. I just think Edwards has the upsides. I love Wiseman but man, he looks like a blend of Myles Turner and JJJ. Not sure that's a top 5 pick in today's NBA when you got Isaiah Joe, Anthony, Ball, Edwards and Maxey.

Maxey can be the future modern Gary Payton
Edwards can be a superstar to me. He got it all for a combo guard. He will need time but he got extreme potential.
Ball is another that will need time but like Edwards, he got extreme potential
Joe 6'5 who can shoot for everywhere, with elite volume and moves exceptionally well. Ray Allen tease?

I love Wiseman's floor but his ceiling just isn't elite to me. You basically rocking with him due to his high floor

His skill is he runs the floor exceptionally well, kinda like Jaxson Hayes

In this case i think it's his smarts recognizing when he does or doesn't need to use athleticism to get his offense off depending on the possesion. Cole isn't breakneck and wreckless attempting to fly through, over, and around any and everybody. That's the beauty of his game. The bounce, body control, and explosion is a bonus moreso than a necesity.

Even though Zeke did work in Minn and was PotY, the one game I saw him (state title game he won), I wasnt too impressed. Think he has a chance at 1 and done too? I saw he had 20pts 4rebs. Stretch 4.

No idea - I didn't know much about him and last night is the first time I've seen him play. He looks damn good though - let's see how he does against Illinois on Sunday...real competition

I was surprised how below the rim he was, but wow is he polished, and that shooting range makes his entire offensive game more effective - not to mention that of his teammates. Great smarts and body control make up for lack of length and leaping ability.

I think that last line nailed his situation. Killian Hayes is a star if he's got a good consistent 3 ball. I think he's a top 10 player in the draft - maybe top 5. Having his experience at such a young age gives him a big advantage. Like Cole Anthony, he's so polished.

he can get up but he has to pick his spots because he's small, but he can definitely get up there, he's pretty quick cutting and with the stop-and-go as well, good change of direction, he's definitely a plus athlete...i'm more concerned with frame/strength but he's good.
