2023 NBA Draft Megathread

It'd be a totally Memphis Grizzlies style late first round pick.

Bastards... he would fit their type fo sho.

The thing that makes Nelson interesting vs other guys in his similar size/athletic profile is that he some natural feel as a playmaker/scorer that most don't.

Yeah he has a lot more potential than “stretch 5”.

His handle and facilitation/vision is borderline elite for his size.

33% prior to the season though... sixers pick is aggressive... but if we made a promise and moved back to the second round or acquired a second rounder it would definitely be worth it. He's the type that becomes a mid first rounder by playing in Portsmouth or at the combine.

I would feel pretty comfortable taking him with the sixers pick. He kind of reminds me of Kyle Kuzma.

there are a few high upside fliers we could take with that Sixers pick... its another reason imo to not swing on a guy like GG with our pick or the Minny pick.

Almost as bad as the 45% TS% in SEC play.

The majority of his shots are contested mid-range jumpers and 3s, with over 60% being unassisted. With more normal shot selection and better teammates, his shooting shouldn't be an issue.

I feel good about GG. I think he is going to be really good.

Because he wants those kinds of shots....

South Carolina is a bad team, no doubt. Not a ton of talent, but a big part of their issue is GG himself. They'd be a better team without him.

For the record, I definitely would not use a 1st rounder on Nelson. I'd start to think about him more around 40.

Future recruits need to learn their lesson from Emoni Bates and GG Jackson.

Don't reclassify late in the process to chase NIL money at mediocre programs.
