Following Potential 2018 Draftees

If Robert Williams shows he can shoot outside and put the ball down a bit, he comes into the picture. If Bolomboy can eventually shoot 3s, maybe this guy can too? He defends, rebounds, runs the floor, has a prototypical build... it's a good starting point.

With our roster taking shape I have a hard time seeing where a rookie would play... I think we need to take a moonshot... I'm not saying Cabocolo type reach, but that we find the guy with the most upside.

We are drafting around 15-18 imo... Jontay Porter kinda intrigues me around there. Big, young, good shooter, good block rate.
 
considering how all these things get thrown back in our faces later on but here goes I like Hutchinson better than Evans
I honestly don't think it's close. Evans is a much better basketball player. Hutchison just has the wingspan hype. I love him too, I think he is a solid first round pick, but I dont know why anyone would have him over Evans (all around more skilled, better defender, higher IQ, much better shooter) or Okogie (basically the same player as Hutch, but 2.5 years younger, putting up same stats, and doing it in a harder conference).

What kind of ceiling do you think Evans has? Like what is a ceiling comp for you?

I have no doubt he will be a rotation player... does too much good stuff but not sure if his ceiling is starter, high level starter, all star.

If it makes you feel any better it turns out I'm not actually down on Walker at all, I just don't like the majority of guys between he/Shamet/Milton. Evans is a late lotto level guy imo, very very good prospect, reasonable upside as a high level starter, poor man's Butler.

I think he can definitely be a starter. I think he is a guy who could work himself into being a really good player. Cincinnati is just so good that he doesnt really have to put up crazy stats game to game. They are often blowing opponents out.

I dont really like giving players ceilings.
