2021 NBA Draft Preview (new thread)

I just provided his freshman year stats you dumbass. The two aren’t comparable.

As a freshman, Bridges came off the bench and averaged 6 pts / 3 rebs, shooting 30% from 3pt.
As a freshman, Boston started, played with high usage and averaged 14 pts / 5 rebs, shooting 30% from 3pt.
And yeah, Villanova was a much better team than UK.

Boston could absolutely develop into a Mikal Bridges-caliber player.
 
I saw a blurb on the telley about Kyle Magnas who was the NAIA player of the year for Indiana Wesleyan. He is a 6'4" guard with a 6'9" wingspan. He averaged 29ppg last season. He was an all state basketball player in Indiana as was Mike Conley Jr. His agent is Mike Conley Sr. His college coach called him a basketball genius. He is also a 4.0 student. This kid is probably not worthy of a 2nd round draft pick but a player like this might be worthy of a spot on the 2nd summer league team.
 
Dear god no…



Steph
Klay
Siakam
Wiggins

Yikes

Wiggins would almost certainly be in the deal... green and Siakham may be a tough fit if Pascal keeps shooting the ball terribly.
 
Bones Hyland now being mocked to Utah at 30.

Good type of player to have long-term next to Mitchell. Not a point guard yet, but someone who can make some plays and ball-handle. Maybe the best shooter in the draft. Super deep range. His lack of strength limits his defensive versatility. I like his overall game a bit more than Desmond Bane, who is kind of his comp from last draft.

KSL has a mock from various sites on the Media page and Hyland was going to the Jazz in one of the sites. The one thing that gives me pause is one of the worst Jazz first round picks ever came out of VCU: Eric Maynor.

Jose Alvarado from Ga. Tech is planning to work out for the Jazz. Alvarado wasn't invited to the Combine and might go undrafted.
AJ Lawson scheduled to workout with the Jazz on Friday.
 
Any chance Ayo falls to us at 30?

Yes. There are enough guards in this draft with Cooper, Butler, Springer, Mann and Ayo, as well as Cam and Christopher, that at least one or two of them should drop. It's a numbers game. Bones Hyland could sneak into the 1st round too, like Quickley and Pritchard last year.
