True, but we need a guy like that--someone who can run the floor, play both ends, knock down shots, make a play off the dribble, score at the rim, and make some passes. He won't be the playmaker that Hayward was, but if he develops, he could cover a number of those bases. A team based around Mitchell, Knox and Gobert could work, and it would allow Hood and Ingles to just be the complementary players that they probably are. I think that's the prototype we're looking for.

The Kurucs, Musa, Tillie types are nice, but likely not athletic enough to be a guy we can play through.

I'm not sure how we get a guy like that, but I didn't think we could trade up for Mitchell either. That was a coup.
 
Hamidou Diallo in the UK Big Blue Madness...pretty much just dunks, but you see some of the quickness and explosion.

And yet another UK guy, former 5-star recruit, now sophomore Sacha Killeya-Jones. Could go late first round or early-mid second round. He's still developing physically but has good athleticism, coordination, feel and surprisingly good shooting touch. Now 6'10", 222 lbs with a 7'2" wingspan according to UK pro day measurements.

I am really curious is if Dr. Jones has any more information on why Calipari cut Bol Bol from the U19 team this past summer.

His game has some of the same strengths and weaknesses as Skal Labissiere. He's just not getting much time or many touches, but he actually looks quite efficient on offense. If we could pick him up in the 2nd round or late 1st, it would be solid value.

I met to post his senior highlights rather than junior year.

Here's some of his scrimmage highlights. He's the skinny guy, #1.
