DraftExpress had Bam Adebayo ranked #38 a month before the draft. Metu will go lottery, I'm pretty sure. I don't think he'll go top 5, but more like the 7 - 12 range. He's a great 2-way player to put next to Rudy and might be able to play a bit of stretch-5 (shooting out to 20 feet) in some line-ups. He's got a bit of alpha in him and could become an 18 - 20-point scorer. He's still relatively raw and is still learning the game, which is a good thing in terms of longer term potential.
FWIW, I like him better than Bam for the Jazz.
he is ivan rabb 2.0. Wont be a first round pick.

He is a different player then Rabb but he isnt a Bam either
Lame. He's much more athletic and a much better defender than Rabb.
yeah, but his result are going to be the same. A PF/C who people thought would be a first round pick but will drop to the early/mid 2nd because of a subpar year.
That's a reach. I think he'll go top 15 in virtually any scenario next year, especially if he measures well and can add to his shooting range. He would have been picked in the first round this year if he stayed in the draft.
Except the scenarios where he doesn't, which is 90% of the scenarios.
And I highly doubt it.
I'm not even sure if Metu is really a better prospect than Ethan Happ, probably is, but not by much.
