Following Potential 2025 Draftees

Could be wrong, but I don't think the Hornets would draft Tre Johnson when they already have LaMelo. There've been reports of them having interest in Kon, if anybody.

But I wouldn't be surprised if they traded down with another team who ends up taking Ace.
Not sure why that'd change their draft plans, Tre isn't a PG, he's a 2 guard.

But they don't need another guy that just shoots and plays zero D

Kon or VJ fit better next to LaMelo
 
However game 7 goes, it’s going to lead to a lot of hot draft takes when in reality it shouldn’t have much of an impact.
It seems like every single year we have some very strong draft takes after the finals that are very specific to what just transpired. And they are usually different to the takes and lessons taken just the year before. This should come to tell you... there are many different ways to win in this league and the way you win in the future very well might be slightly or significantly different than the way the current champions won their rings... I feel like one of the constants that you can say about pretty much every championship team is - great players playing really hard... competitiveness. It's almost self-evident, but it's surprising how often we miss to emphasize that last simple bit.

Competitiveness, team chemistry, versatility, guys that defend
 
Javon had good production (18.6pts/5.6ast/4.1reb) on good efficiency (58%TS) as the only player who could do anything with the ball at West Virginia. He led them to a 0.500 record in the big 12 basically by himself.

If you look at the time he played with Tucker Devries before Devries got hurt his efficiency is even better (62.75% TS) and it was against mostly good competition (Gonzaga, Georgetown, Arizona, Louisville)
