2023 NBA Draft Megathread

A lot of mocks have us taking Cason Wallace. Is he someone to get excited about or more of a solid, albeit perhaps somewhat boring, pick?
The thing about Wallace is he is the type of player that makes the other players around him better. He looks for the pass first. Great defender and pretty good 3 point shooter.

Dont think he will ever be and all star but he could make some players all stars.

He’s the boring version (but maybe better) of Anthony Black….he’s also been struggling like crazy recently with his shot, but I heard he’s also playing through injuries.
 
I think maybe boring is not the right word with Cason. Watching him early in the year there was a game where for 2 minutes he was doing something on every possession (both sides of the ball) that got me excited. He likely just has a lower range of expected outcomes than some guys and might have a lower offensive ceiling. I think he is a safe steady player... I would be more excited by him than many other dudes in the draft range. I think he is a safe bet in the late lotto.

Kentucky is just hard to watch.
 
Food for thought (maybe everyone here already knows this):

Givony today on the 2024 draft: "This is a very underwhelming high school class, one of the worst that I've seen in the last 20 years."

I can't imagine would life would be like with a guard who could defend a third grader. . .
 
Cason is definitely boring, but he's likely going to be solid on offense and probably pretty good/maybe great on defense. Not a huge ceiling though.
 
GG Jackson cooking against Alabama. He roasted Brandon Miller on a couple mid-range buckets, and now they're going back and forth.
