2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Jordan Hawkins had been slumping a bit, but that jump shot makes me hard. Perfect mechanics, rotation on the ball and really good elevation. Nice dunk today at well showing off the athleticism.

He's got great length too. Could be north of 6'10 wingspan.

I’m an Ochai fanboy and while Ochai was a better college player than Hawkins, I think Hawkins jumper and overall game may translate a bit better than Agbaji.

If this was a worse draft, I'd argue for GG being top 10. The draft is just too good though.

I’m fine with all of this. Would love to see him fall and then get him with the Nets/76ers pick. That would be amazing tbh. That’s exactly a “swing for the fences” type of move I’d like to see them make with that pick.

Uh, yeah....there's no way GG falls into the 20s of this draft, imo.

Not likely but there’s a way.

except for Smith was the #3 pick in 2022. I have had Miller at #3 for a couple of weeks. Hell, I might take him over scoot if I was the Jazz.

Scoot is gonna be bananas… Miller is cool but no way am I passing on Scoot.

This is one of the prettiest jump shots we’ll ever see.

This draft has a few guys that project as elite shooters. For me Dick and Sensabaugh are on another level though.

It’s Dick, Hawkins then Sensabaugh in that order and I know that’s not popular here. But for the Sensabaugh fans, how do you reconcile he can’t defend at all?

He can defend the 3/4 just fine and has the bulk to matchup against some 5's. We are also talking about shooting and Sensabaugh shoots well at all 3 levels.

Sensabaugh can't guard 5s...

Are you saying he has the body to do it or the will/skill?

I agree he has the body but he hasn’t shown any interest or awareness at the collegiate level but you think that will change in the NBA? Serious question.
