Saw someone mention that with Podz. It makes sense to me. 1) Rebounding reflects some degree of functional athleticism + hustle + intelligence 2) rebounding is just overrated in general for defense. Many times a player is a net positive/negative on defense just on the basis of rebounding.

Maybe, but these are all midrange off the dribble shots where players typically hang for balance and release a bit later.

Bufkin is a pretty good dude to plant a flag on. I want to get the Dallas pick and snag him. Or do the OKC trade to get our pick back next year and drop down to 12 and get him there. Hell, do both.
Jazz gotta be wheelin and dealin on draft night.

The two No Ceilings guys who do the film dives are definitely lower on Cam than most of this board (both have him at 9).
Don't really buy him as a 3 level scorer. Midrange game is poor. They have questions on 3 form, but nothing that isn't workable, but not high on it. Very low on playmaking potential.

One of the dudes said he trusted Jarace's shot more than Cam's. The other said he had equal trust in both as shooters, but trust Jarace to take more appropriate shots.
They are super high on both. They have Jarace at 4 and Cam at 5 on their most recent big board.
No Ceilings is a conglomerate of individuals. The two guys who do the film podcast (Corey and Andy?) have him at 9.
They hate Cam's fit on Detroit. Like it for Utah
Why is he shooting those shots though? It’s weird. And it directly controverts the “lol, he doesn’t shoot on the way down.” thing.

I can’t tell if OKC is sweet on Bilal or Bufkin… Bilal makes more sense but Bufkin was working with SGA in OKC and the Down to Dunk guys seem to have planted their flag on Kobe.
I think if you want Kobe you plan on getting him in front of OKC. I would support drafting him at 9 a lot more than JHS who is a meh choice at 16 imo.

Because it's part of his game. He's a solid midrange shooter.
