What's new

Following Potential 2018 Draftees

Max Strus on DePaul drops 33 on Xavier on 6/12 shooting, he's been on fire recently. DePaul is an east coast program thats due for a major upswing the next few years, major talent infusion.. Interesting to watch..

Also Matisse Thybulle is a perfect Jazz player in the 2nd rd, he'd like Raja Bell except much more likable, UW is a tournament team and had a very nice win over USC today.
 
well well.. who do we tank for?

If somehow Michael Porter Jr is on the board, he'll be the pick. 99.99999% sure. I said it years ago he could render Hayward to the realm of expendable..


Rudy at the 5 and Porter Jr at the 4 would be the best 4/5 combo in the history of the franchise... the rest of the team slides right in. They can keep Favors if they wanted and split Jr's minutes between the forward spots... He's the pick and he's the trade-up target if there is one.

The Jazz are smart, and thats why It's easy to make this call now. They are well aware of the ramifications of passing on him and they're just not that stupid.

He would actually steal the show from Mitchell and the whole team would fall in line behind him as the top offensive option. Could definitely be a back-to-back ROY situation..

Just curious, how many college players have put up 30/20 games? I can't think of any off the top of my head. Did Hakeem? Shaq? Bogut? Ewing? Danny Manning?

Bagley put up 32/21 today.

Edit: Apparently Brice Johnson did for UNC. Other guys like Wes Unseld, Bill Russell and Kareem probably did it. Wilt Chamberlain apparently averaged 30 and 18.

I like it. Porter JR we go. Tank away.
 
It's hard to argue the numbers that Trae Young is putting up. He's really pinning the needle. Perhaps the most encouraging thing is how he got to the foul line today.
