2023 NBA Draft Megathread

What you're saying is true, but it's true for pretty much every draft prospect. UCF did not run their offense through Hendricks in the first place. Again, I don't know what the normal or expected drop-off would be, but I wouldn't expect it to be worse for Hendricks versus other prospects. I watched both of the HOU games, for example, and it's not like HOU was focusing him.

I guess what I said was in general and might not be directly correlated with Hendricks. It shouldn’t be worse either you’re right there.

Hendricks wasnt the only scoring option on the team. He averaged 15 ppg, so it's not even like he was scoring all taht much. They had 4 players average 10 points or above.

Hendricks just isnt good and he probably struggled against higher ranked teams because higher ranked teams have actual big men and Taylor was charmin soft in the paint.

You’re going overboard.

Why do I think it was common knowledge you mean?

It was gone over to death in the conversations yesterday that were very pointless. It was my theory based on how the draft went down.

I believe that is more than any other college player drafted before him and more than most drafted right behind him as well. And he did it more efficiently than the other dudes who also scored less.

Yeah, a freshman averaging 15 PPG isn’t something to sneeze at.

I think it was more points per game than anthony black, jarace walker, gradey dick, cason wallace, kobe bufkin, keyonte george, etc. And more efficient as well.

Yeah, but I think we are all hoping Hendricks is a bit better than Ochai, whose top end looks like a solid 5th option in a starting lineup.

Yeah so he could be Lauri Markkanen on the cavs he can sit in the corner and shoot threes and theoretically be a better defender than Lauri was those types of players often don’t look great in the G league I don’t think he’s ever gonna be a star but I think he could for sure be a solid 5th player in a starting line up much like Markkanen was on the cavs if we got him at 16 instead of 9 I think that’s what everyone would be hoping for so let’s just pretend we got key at 9 and him at 16 because we aren’t sure any of the players between those picks are any better than keyonte is rn
