Walsh just looks so awkward out there. He would have to make huge offensive leaps
2023 NBA Draft Megathread
- Thread starter Ferguson_Mellochill
- Start date
His free throw rate is good. My calculation for future NBA 3 point percentage is the college FT percentage divided by 2 minus 3.3. I think he would be a 35.2% 3 point shooter.
Ok now watch him move on the court with the ball or how he acts when he's wide open from 3
It's ugly but maybe full time professionals could help him.
Black and Hawkins have not been special in the tournament either.

His guys chose ignite instead
Dude was a 5 star recruit. I'm sure he has had full time professionala help him.
I love him, but he's too uncoordinated at this point. He needs to go back and prove he can touch the ball without having a panic attack.
Which of the top prospects are even still in the tournament now? I think just Brandon Miller, Anthony Black, and Jerace Walker? I think Jordan Hawkins and Colby Jones are worth watching still. Anyone else I'm forgetting?
I would have to agree that the overall impact of this draft class at the college level has been disappointing, although I'm not sure how it compares with the impact of past draft classes. Obviously some of that is due to top prospects choosing alternative routes to the NBA. I wonder if some of it is related to playing against older kids on average due to extended eligibility?

#11 and #12 right now. Take some spins on Tankathon, I bet it won't take long before Jazz get into the top 4. I just jumped up to #2 on my fourth or fifth spin.
Also interesting to look at the bottom of the first round. Picks #26-30 are all set to be sent elsewhere. That is what teams trading all those future firsts are planning to have happen when they make those moves. If you trade everything but end up just giving away mediocre picks anyway, it's not too bad. The Wolves being in the lottery right now after one of those big moves is huge for us.

Yes, a lot of it is everyone is 22+ years old I'm college
A lot of the high recruits he has gotten the last two years just haven't planned out. Chris Livingston this year was a big bust, Damion Collins last year. Plus he entered the transfer portal game so that has pushed down some of the high ranked guys who aren't as ready.
He has 5 top 20 guys next season though.
I think it's a starter rotation/role player draft. I'm sure someone outside the top 5 will emerge as an all star at some point, but it won't be an obvious star development path.
