Might not be a bad comp.
Following Potential 2026 Draftees
- Thread starter Miggs
- Start date
Isaiah Evans looks way better to me this year vs last year.

gonna be funny when wilson is the #1 overall pick with boozer, dybantsa and peterson on the outside looking in.
Maybe I bought into Boozer too early
I only watched the first half of the game last night, but I though Boozer looked good. Everything Kansas did on defense was to try and stop Boozer and he generally made good decisions and was able to break through a couple double/triple teams and get some points.

something to watch as the season progresses. Boozer is shooting only 48% at the rim so far this season.
and there is this:

Just kind of underestimated how hard his life would be around the rim. Maybe he's better in better spacing, but I'm a bit hesitant to call him Top 3. Might be Peterson-Wilson-Carr
For the amount of glaze draft twitter gave Boozer, I must admit he does look underwhelming. If he was dominating the games I could get over the aesthetics and translation question…but while he’s very good he’s not dominating the better competition.
Pete is #1. Boozer/AJ still 2/3 in some order but Wilson is knocking on the door for sure.

Drafting Boozer is my #1 fear right now.
I mean there are way worse scenarios right now.
I guess it's about expectations and small sample size right now. I don't think anybody in this draft class is as good of a prospect as Flagg was last year, but you have people thinking otherwise and then they are going to be disappointed. And then small sample size, at about this time last year people were down on Flagg because he had a bad turnover or something in a big game.
I'm happy to let things play out. Wilson looks amazing, but I wouldn't put him above any of the top 3 yet.
Cam is averaging 22/10/4 as an 18-year old let’s not overthink this lol.
