Following Potential 2018 Draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
Shake Milton is a bit of a sleeper for us. He's got great tools and could develop his game in different ways.
I still like Jontay Porter. He might also have the biggest head in the draft...
Keita Bates-Diop maybe another victim of the overused Danny Granger comp.
Strengths: DiVincenzo can score at will, play D, and he is very athletic and a team oriented player ... He scored 10 or more points in four of their six games during the postseason, including a team high 31 off the bench against Michigan in the title game ... DiVincenzo is a top tier athlete with a legitimate vertical to go along with his solid frame and size ... He has been known as a sharpshooter, hitting 47 percent of his field goals, 40 percent from beyond the arc and 58 percent from two-point land … Has displayed the ability to score at or away from the basket ... He did a little bit of everything for Nova this season ... He can score, rebound and assist when he wants with above average abilities to do all three ... As shown in his title game performance, he has a clutch gene to perform when the lights are brightest ... He averaged 1.1 steals per game this past season, showing his aggressiveness on defense ... Even when he was mismatched on D, he loves to battle and compete ... One big aspect NBA scouts will like that is overlooked is his great character with a team ... He was willing to adopt into a system that made the team better by coming off the bench as a sixth man and taking the role given to him, setting an example ... His peers have lauded his high basketball IQ and throughout his basketball career, he has been a winner ... Could develop into a combo or even a point, although he may always struggle to guard the lead guard position ...
He sounds like a Jazz man to me!

Elie Okobo and Jalen Brunson are the lefty neto upgrade. He's not as athletic but Okobo reminds me bit of Baron Davis. Brunson projects to be an efficent backup rather quickly, he's nba ready.
Shamorie Ponds 6'1 sophomore pg from St Johns could work his way into this discussion too, he's another lefty who can really shoot it, he's slick offensively. Possible home run type of 2nd rd pick

Spencer Dinwiddie has 2 cheap years left on his deal just had a MIP caliber year and just turned 25. I'd trade the pick for him.

Isaiah roby won’t be in the draft this year. Look out for this kid though. I follow Nebraska basketball closely, Great kid. He will be in the draft next year and I hope the jazz get him.

Why would the Nets do this?

He is just more reminiscent of the new wave of PG's. He is a 3pt shooter and a good off the dribble player. He is more like D'Angelo Russell or James Harden than he is Tony Parker.
Why would the Jazz? Dinwiddie was garbage in the 2nd half of the season.

One cheap year left. He’s not that great tbh... I’d rather take a flier on a guy we can have cheap for 4 years.

I just don't want a major project. I don't like the whole... there isn't much risk, so why not guy? It isn't just the pick... its the roster spot... its the coaches time. Even a guy who has rotation value in year 2 has a ton of value in roster building.
I'd rather be the second team to have the "project" guy.
It's the same mock, he just added short explanations.
I just found out today that Kelan Martin from Butler has a 7'3 wingspan. I really didnt like him before knowing that, because he seems kind of fat and not athletic enough to be a NBA 3/tough enough to be a NBA 4, but maybe he can if he's that long.
Simons looks like he is 14 years old.
