2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Eddie Zero]

I will also point out Black being a full-time PG at the college level was not by design. He was supposed to share those reps with NSJ, but NSJ spent most of the year injured. Had Nico Mannion been injured like NSJ, we might have seen Green assume a similar role on Arizona.

I think Sidy only works if you don't think rebounding is important from your SF. Based on per 36 stats, even if he rebounded just as well in the NBA as in the G-League this year, he would be the single worst rebounding forward in the entire league.

He did play next to pretty good rebounders. Hard to say if it's really an issue. I've never heard anyone discuss it as a weakness and I never noticed when I watched Ignite games.

In the recent national team games he averaged 5 rebounds in 21 mpg.

It's true that he had some good rebounders next to him.

But Scoot managed 77% more rebounds/per time unit than he did, so it's not like there were just no rebounds to be had.

I've thought for a long time that rebounding is one of those things that you either have or you don't. But I guess there's always exceptions. Maybe he bucks the trend here?

Or maybe he's a guard? I'd be surprised if that's his NBA position, but I haven't watched all that much to have a strong opinion.

I think you need more than a single year sample size. Like I said, he averaged 5 per game in 21 mpg last year in national play. That's pretty good

have to love Sidy was only an 18 yr old playing against fellas google says the average age of is around 25. Its guaranteed in my mind you'll see a jump in his game, how big is the question.

GG Jackson might be gettable at #16. Just sayin. I'd be happy with a Bufkin / GG draft.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Still think Black’s comp is Michael Carter Williams.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Miami's lack of size hurting them.

JHS wouldn't have this issue.

Still think Black’s comp is Michael Carter Williams.

That’s what I’m most worried about.

Gun to my head right now I’d take Bufkin over Black.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I'm uncomfortable being in agreement with David Locke, but I think Kobe's the guy. I think he or Keyonte George is BPA at 9.

Yeah, that’s an easy one for me.

I have Bufkin slightly ahead of Keyonte right now just because we need a PG and I dont know yet if Keyonte could be that at the next level.
