I'm just talking about how everyone who touched the ball looked scared in the last quarter of the game. Didn't look like they belonged towards the end.
 
Jarvis Varnado's brother, Jordon looks legit, he's a 6'6" Freshman wing for Troy. Shoots 3's well and gets steals and blocks.
 
Speaking of Troy, has anyone caught anything from Shawn Long this year? I remember watching him in Elrid Payton's last year and I thought he had some sleeper 2nd round potential in his future. Averaging 19.8 points, 11 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 assist, and a steal on 58% shooting in 28 mpg so far this year.

I am shocked, but UK staff feels very good about Bolden.
I don't even know that we need him, but that team... wow.

Fox / Monk / Hawkins
Monk / Mulder / Hawkins
Gabriel / Matthews / Willis
Bam / SKJ / Lee? / Willis
Bolden / Humphries / Wynyard

That's if we lose;
Ulis
Briscoe
Murray
Poythress
Skal
Lee?

Their gonna win big anyway.. He'll cruise to a top-18 pick in limited minutes, It's the safest bet, obviously. I think Humphries might be ready to give him a run for that starting spot though, should be interesting to see if he can keep this kind of block rate going as the season moves on.

It wouldn't be stepping on any of the other recruits toes with the way Coach Cal recruits them.. so why not??

It's been rumored there was always a UK connection because Bolden has the same mentor as Julius Randle -- ya think there's something to that?


Lee will end up in the draft IMO. Teams out there could use him. Top-40 pick right now. He has a chance to play big in some big upcoming televised games too. Starting to really look the part of an undersized NBA rim protector.
 
No nba talent for him. Maybe had he stayed at Wisconsin, I kidding. kind of.lol.

Kendrick Nunn one thing is holding that kid back from being a nice combo guard off someones bench in the league. He can only his left and go to his left really. If he developed his right hand he would be late first early 2nd round material.


can be a lockdown defender when he wants to. Right coach can change that.
Good shooter
nice floater and midrange game
Is just a gamer. Was number 2 guy on simeon hs behind Jabari Parker
Super athletic, You woul;dnt think he has the type of bounce he has. Kid can get up
Pretty strong already with a body that could fill out a little more.
doesn't force many shots at all. Great bball iq.
moves without ball really well

Ok I changed over to the game. Uthoff kinda broke out last season, I've been checking in on him since, he's worth seeing in my book. Obviously the best prospect on Iowa.

He's a stretch 4, with possible translatable SF skills, kinda sorta in the mold of a Kyle Singler.. He's also a legitimately seasoned, reliable college player used to being the #1 option. He's very mobile and fairly light on his feet, obviously he doesn't weigh all that much. His shooting is legit, he's got a series of fakes and stuff, he means business when he's got the ball. Not really like a rhythm player either, he's just solid..

Uthoff's got decent lateral quicks and stuff like that. 6'9" and a 6'10" wingspan -- So its the same drill as Isaac Copeland, he's kinda best served as a SF given his body type, it's not out of the question though.. Not a great passer by any stretch, he's not bad, heady player, and relatively mistake free for a high usage player. There's alot to like. He was obviously going to get on a SL team and on a preseason squad, going into this year.

He's a shot maker and his 3pt shots been better than ever so far. I'm not surprised by this result at all...

PG_AB are you at all worried about Ingram's shooting?

Not at all. his ability to shoot off the dribble is fantastic, you can't lazily defend him, he'll pull up in your face. I guess he's a bit of a rhythm shooter, thing is; he gets in rhythm quickly, and is tough to get out of rhythm. His FT shooting seems to be slightly behind schedule. He's 18 though, and gangly, I wouldn't draw a conclusion over that. His shooting motion is nice and simple and he repeats his mechanics effortlessly, he keeps great alignment and releases the ball high and quickly, I think he's got great shot selection, which certainly helps.

I think he's clearly put on some good weight since this McDonalds game too.

Are you familiar with 6'3" SG, Bruce Brown(Miami commit) in the class of 2016? He's seen as a top 40 player by many services. Nunn kinda seems like a better prospect IMO. Brown's obviously good with his off-hand. Nunn seems like few clicks more athletic though, I hope he keeps dropping 20 tbh, he'll get looks in the pros.

6'10" Raymond Spalding(UL) being ranked #79 in DX's freshman rankings is possibly even more outrageous than Devonte' Graham still being ranked #75 of the Sophomores and Chris Boucher(Oregon)/Devin Thomas(Wake Forest) being ranked #48 and #49 in the Senior rankings.


Kyle Kuzma(Utah) finally debuted in their rankings (#51 Soph).

Tacko Fall(UCF) also debuted as the #60 Freshman

They've jumped Brandon Sampson a spot over Antonio Blakeney!! Interesting

UConn's mopping OSU at home. Strong showing from Jalen Adams so far.


Kris Dunn's out with an illness but on the sidelines vs Bryant.

Nigel Hayes showing exactly why I don't have him in the 1st round vs Marquette. This years Montrezl Harrell.


Ellenson looks great. He's really, really skilled.


Haniif Cheatham was a late riser in the top-100. He's a legitimate super sleeper, it's not the first time I've mentioned him. He's 9 for 14 from 3 so far and can do a multitude of other things you'd look for in a combo guard.
