Following Potential 2018 Draftees

Do the chinese frown on dunking or is he just not that athletic? At 6'8" I would expect some more emphatic punctuation on some of those wide-open layups.
 
Tony Jones mentioned on the pod that the jazz really like Keita Bates-Diop... that makes sense. Combo forward, long arms, idk seems like something we’d like.


Tony also sends shout outs to Cy and says Cy is his guy... so we really can’t trust anything he says.

KBD is a player I was spot on about here in my posts 4+ years ago... I used to say that recruiting class, which was just him and D'Angelo Russell, was underrated and they both looked like pro's even though KBD was a 4star recruit. Vouched for him every year since til he dropped out of the field.


I dont think he's 6'9, his wingspan is at-least 7'2 tho.. He looked to me like easily one of the most nba ready and juust overall best players in college this year.

He'd be a great fit he'd fill the biggest hole thats existed on the depth chart for years, a 3/4. Smart kid too.
 
I want guys who are mature... guys like DM, Tatum, OG and others are successful in big part because they are mature and ready to work amongst their other attributes... whoever we get I hope they are an adult... not old but an adult.
 
Jarrey Foster, who IMO was one of the best athletes in the field, is returning to SMU. Kina sucks if not for his injury he mightve been ready.

If this was guess who - Are they mature? wouldnt be a very good first question cuz a vast majority are.

Jalen Runson might be the most mature beyond his years type in the field.
 
I've watched a lot of Elie Okobo recently (he has a lot of full games on Youtube). He would be an excellent pick at 21. Fills need of more shooting and ball-handling/playmaking.
 
Once the draft gets into the 20s, there's a number of versatile 2-way guards like Melton, Milton, Okobo, Khyri Thomas, maybe Okogie too. I could see the Jazz taking one of them to replace Neto and give us insurance for Exum's health. All those guys look like they could be decent rotation players.

Simons is more of a boom/bust offensive talent and could be a bit limited by his size and strength if he's strictly seen as a 2-guard. Measurements will be key for him.

He's 6'7" I think, same frame as Mikal Bridges.

Isn't Melton just how Utahns say Milton?
