2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[KqWIN]

Looking at Dante's stats with Partizan... should he be a candidate for NBA return?

His body cannot handle the NBA schedule. It is what it is.

I would sign him without hesitation.

Don't we keep the 2024 pick if its lower than 10th? It bumps to the following draft with different restrictions if I recall. I think it graduates to a couple of seconds later.

Protected 1-10 in 2024
Protected 1-10 in 2025
Protected 1-8 in 2026
Otherwise becomes second round

Just watched his highlights... he looks more explosive than ever. But he keeps taking really hard falls on every poster(and there are TONS of them)...

He's shooting in the 40s from 3... in the 50s from the floor... 85% from FT... da ***?

he's bigger.

Dick is 2" taller. But he is less athletic. Dick shoots the ball slightly better but Hawkins one a championship. I think they are closer than mock drafts suggest.

Exactly lol. He is glazing him.

I love it when people make up the reason why I disagree with them lol. Does it make you feel better if you shadowbox a a made up and exaggerated argument? I don't know why people go to a forum to discuss basketball and make up the other side of the argument.

Why is Gradey rated ahead of Hawkins? They seem to have pretty comparable skills.

While watching the Finals, I thought that of all the prospects currently in the 4-15 range, that Hawkins was the player who could suit up right there and then and play some meaningful stints for both teams. I'm not sure why he isn't a lock to go top 10. I'd be totally fine with him at 9.

If he could play an NBA season, sure, but I doubt he can do that and I don't think NBA teams care to figure out at this point. I love Dante, he's my favorite player of all time, but he's probably best staying in Europe even if he's an NBA talent.

I literally didn’t even say anything about him except I posted his 3PT% in the playoffs. I’m sorry that you are so defensive about your favorite prospect.

If you weren’t so defensive you could have posted his other stats from the playoffs.

Bilal’s and Ntilikina’s stats look pretty similar at the same age in the same league.

Bilal’s and Ntilikina’s stats look pretty similar at the same age in the same league.

Someone get this info to Danny, stat.

I remember Sekou dropped like 34 either in a French playoff game or right before the playoffs. Another guy I really missed on.
