Filipowski with 26 points and 10 rebounds tonight. 11/12 from the field and 4/4 from 3.
2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread
- Thread starter Saint Cy of JFC
- Start date
I think the Jazz will be able to trade into this draft if they really want to. This feels a bit like 2016.

Man, what a massive fall from grace this season has been for Riley Kugel.
I thought he was a guaranteed lotto dude this year. Has been *** all year and his coach only played him 3 minutes last night and was quoted with "I just didnt think he had it tonight" as the reason.
Lost millions by not coming out last year. Had an outside chance at being a first rounder. Not sure he would get drafted anymore and would probably be relegated to a 2-way at best.

Bronny James goes 0/3 after Bronny Sr says he could play for the Lakers now.
I'm rooting for Bronny but quotes like that are going to fuel the haters.
Also Collier 4 turnovers in 23 minutes in another USC loss.
I really think Collier is Lu Dort. So very talented and worth a lottery pick, but it might take some time and he's not going to be a PG even if he wants to be.

Cody Williams returns to Colorado with a solid game in a loss.
Meanwhile Jaylon Tyson continues to dominate Pac-12 play. Cal would be borderline winless without him. Definitely a first round talent for teams looking to draft upperclassmen.

Measurements are going to be make or break for Holland. Obviously talented and extremely athletic, but he's small for a guy who can't shoot. He's probably a lock for the top 5 just based off the athleticism. I dont think his shot *looks* terrible, but it's been terrible. Even a guy as talented as Ausar (who seems like a more controlled/smarter version of Holland in many ways) has trouble because of the complete lack of shooting while being guard sized.
Definitely the guy I feel least confident about. Currently I would have him on a "Id rather not draft" list, but I could be very wrong.
My new hot take is Filipowski is top 5 in this class. I might even take him #1 overall if I had the first pick as the Jazz.
With his added defensive level he is showing this year, he could be the perfect fit next to Lauri at the 5 and someone who could also play next to Kessler. Would give the Jazz so much lineup versatility while replicating someone of what Collins can do and some of what Kelly can do.
Also think he is somewhat NBA ready. Maybe not an immediate Day 1 guy, but someone who could be rotation ready at some point his rookie season.

Also Devin Carter's production is becoming undeniable. You came for Garwey Dual but left wanting Devin Carter.
He's got the Podz elite rebounding guard quality. Quality stocks to go with it.
Only thing that would give you pause is his prior 3pt shooting seasons combined with being a 66% foul shooter.

God damn the G League game is tough to watch.
It's a rim attackers paradise. Help defense is non-existent and the best non-NBA bigs play in Europe making millions so you're stuck with a lot of scrubs for big men in the G.
