2023 NBA Draft Megathread

G-league Ignite has been doing a decent job of developing its young prospects and featuring them well. Their coaching staff is pretty solid. Sidy has come a long way with his offensive feel and especially his passing. He was kind of a raw-athlete type at the start of the season. No doubt, he's going to rise up on draft boards.

There's a lot of risk in it to. Jaden Hardy was seen as a top 5 guy pre-Ignite then performed poorly and dropped out of the 1st round.

I think the players who do well in the G-League are the advanced physical profile athletes.

It’s so much easier to watch a G-League game though and pick the real ones out quickly.

Someone posted a few pages back that Brandon Miller seemed passive in a game and my first thought was “that’s college basketball”. Rarely if ever is a college game a platform to really dominate or show out. You do a lot more guessing/projecting of college guys.

Seeing Sidy do what he’s doing against that talent in those sets tells me a lot.
 
Sidy looks like my guy Tate in Houston... he moves better and his shot is way better. Would want to see his defense in a full game but I prolly won't watch a G League game... that's @homeytennis 's job. If he is a good defender that power wing is so valuable. I am not sure how high his meteoric rise up the draft boards will be but he's worthy of the Minny pick or moving up from the Philly pick to go get him.
 
I wish I invented liking Sidy and it’s going to be so annoying when we pick him and he’s the next Jazz great and Cy never lets us hear the end of it.

I’m officially co-signing my love for Sidy and admitting Cy invented liking him.
I'll take all Cy is willing to dish out on this if he becomes a Jazz great.
 
I think you’re going to see scouts and GM’s try to really keep workout feelings close to the vest as well.

You could love a guy mocked to go 22 when you have the 13th pick and don’t want people catching wind.
 
Sid plays a little heavy. I don't know how to describe it. But I don't think it matters. He explodes and moves well.
