Following Potential Draftees - 2019 (not kidding)

He seems like a 10 year pro with size, length and shooting. His lack of athleticism and often timid ball handling makes me think his ceiling isn't all that high.

I will be very intrigued by what his draft stock ends up being.

Maybe another comp would be Marcus Morris, imo, but his IQ is better.
 
Naji Marshall is better than many realize. He's 6'7 well built sophomore wing on Xavier, he's crushing St Johns in this first half and been on a tear all month, somethign worth monitoring going into tourney time for sure...




This kid is a legit sleeper..
 
PJ has really really improved his shot, massive wingspan, good motor... REALLY needs to tighten his dribble. He’s good and fluid for his size, but to be truly effective as a pro he needs to protect the ball better when putting it on the floor.. but he’s young and getting better almost by the game. I think he goes around 15 - 18.

Here's the thing with PJ, if you can put the ball in his hands and run sets through him, then he becomes very valuable. His size, measurements and athleticism are great if hes a guy who can play on the ball. Obviously, the Jazz have done this with Hayward and Ingles, also Joe Johnson. The Bucks have done this with Giannis obviously. But for PJ to do it, he needs a bit of wiggle and some dribble hesitation moves. He shoots well enough and he has enough feel in the low post, that he might be able to play from the high post. He can deliver the ball with timing. He also played with the ball in his hands a fair amount in HS and AAU.
 
The Naji Marshall highlights from tonight's game are interesting.

Definitely a guy to keep an eye on.
 
Coby White from UNC. He probably gets picked ahead of us, but I think he could start in the NBA at either backcourt position. He's a real shooter, a good enough athlete, and a good ball mover who can create off the bounce.

 
I don't know why people are calling this a weak draft. It looks pretty good to me. There's high-end talent and depth through 16 - 18 picks. Plus, a few decent bigs in the mid - late 1st round. I mean, it's not super deep, but it's decent.

We have no idea who is going to declare.
