2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Handlogten's Heros]

Assuming we like Thompson twins/Cam/Walker so much more than the likes of Hendrick/Black/Dick/Sissoko then yes I guess. But talent wise I see these guys as extremely comparable and would be happy to take any of those guys available

Yeah obviously I mean you don’t move up for ***** and giggles.

Wouldnt be shocked to see GG return to school or maybe go to the Ignite. He seemed pretty emotional after the loss yesterday, not something I would expect out of someone on a crappy team who expected to be one and done.


This was a quote from GG after the game. If he returned to school with a less selfish attitude and show he can elevate his team, he could really raise his stock and be a top 10 pick next year.

“I came in thinking I was gonna be like an iso scorer, all of that,” Jackson said. “I got a real, real rude awakening.”

Today is the first day where there are a good number of games to watch for prospects.

 

[The Midnight]

Agreed, substitute lead guard with lead perimeter player.

But my thought stays the same, I see basically Scoot and Miller who meet that in this draft (maybe the Thompsons, but I have no idea how to scout those dudes).

You don’t see the potential in GG, Hendricks?

Hmm.. k..

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Could be Arkansas last game if they dont win today.

Definitely is Taylor Hendricks last game if UCF doesnt win. Same with Sensabaugh/OSU.

But he could be a top 10 pick this year. Why waste another year and risk injuries?

He's not a top 10 pick this year unless a team absolutely loves him. He could drop out of the top 20.

It's a risk but it isnt a huge risk and I doubt he goes lottery this year imo. Certainly possible though.

Fine enough potential overall (I think I prefer Hendricks), but virtually no chance at being a lead creator. Imo obviously.

Wow really? For me he’s a guaranteed lottery pick this year no question.. could rise to top 10 once the NCAA tourney shine wears off other prospects.

So yeah, I guess I'd be going with Walker for the Jazz at the top as of now. Clear 2nd highest defensive upside in the draft imo (Victor #1, duh).

UCF should smash SMU... think they pounded them last time iirc.

For me the lottery is just too solid to have GG in there. He's a talented shot creator and finisher, but I dont see much else.
