GG Jackson having some real issues with the South Carolina program. He was benched again today and played only 12 minutes.

I’m so out… I mean I’d take him with the Philly pick but I just don’t get the crazy love some have for him.

Still top 6 for me. I'm hoping Minny's pick falls late lotto and we can grab him there. Nothing changes for me. His team sucks. His coach sucks. He can't get open looks or passing angles. If he dropped out to prepare for the draft I'd have no problem with it.
 
Fili with the massive egg so far today. This draft is going to be really unpredictable with how inconsistent most of the players are. One game a guy looks great and the next game he leaves you unsure.

When I look at him even when he is struggling I see a guy with a skillset that fits this era of ball perfectly and his upside is through the roof. If we could get him with the minny pick I would consider it a homerun.

I was really down on him early in the season but after watching some complete games I’m sold on his upside.
 
Going to a ****** school when you had unlimited options so you could get unlimited minutes then being a baby at the slightest adversity is a major red flag.

He's super young still, so he's gets somewhat of a pass, but still a red flag

I agree. Maturity is definitely a concern, but I’d still draft him. Just not with my top pick. If the Jazz could get him with their Minnesota pick, I think it would be a great “swing for the fence” kind of selection.

He shouldn't be expected to do much his first 2 years in the league. He'll need 2 years just to mature physically. He's the same age as Giannis was when he was drafted.

GG is the kind of guy Sam Presti would draft.
 
I’ve just started watching prospects now that we’re officially tanking..

Any chance we could trade up to get Brandon Miller? I really like his game and size for our team. Could be a monster next to Markkanen..
