2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

What pair of NBA brothers are the closest in talent while both being highly talented?

In the modern era, it has to be Pau/Marc Gasol? And even then, I would say Pau was clearly a tier ahead of Marc overall. Lonzo/Melo would have been another if either could stay healthy.

It seems like there is usually a clear better/worse brother. Justin/Jrue Holiday. Brook/Robin Lopez. Marcus/Markieff Morris. Steph/Seth. Caleb/Cody Martin. Jerami/Jerian Grant. Jeff/Marcus Teague. Moritz/Franz Wagner.

It's just so rare to have two all-star caliber brothers.
 
Ok just got done watching Creighton vs Oregon. I really like all 3 of the players on Creighton. Alexander, schierman and Kalbrenner.
Schheirman reminds of those players taken late first or second round that just survive around the league. He can do a little bit of everything.

Alexander can be a very good player. Love his positional size. He is deadly from midrange. Decent 3 point shooter and a decent passer.

Kalkbrenner is the kind of player you love to have at the end of your bench. Can stretch the floor some is a decent rebounder. Tries to play positional defense.
 
Walter somehow just gets fouled constantly. Too bad him and Baylor are struggling to hit open shots and FTs

This was my whole point with Amen and Ausar last year.

I'm not sure it's that great a point looking back at it now.
 
My pitch for Williams is that all of the prospects in this draft require some imagination and my imagination takes Williams to the most exciting place for our team.

He's going to look better in the NBA than in the NCAA. There's nowhere to drive in college, and I think that's really the premise behind his game at this stage.
