I mean, there's likely going to be someone in my top 5 available at 10. It's a throwaway pick to waste it on Dillingham. He would be in the 20s for me
People were saying he was 6’1 with shoes and he measured 6’1 w/o shoes. I think that is a win.
You always have a couple of horrendous takes where you’re trying WAY too hard.
I would have needed Dillingham to be at least 175 to beat the too small allegations. I just can't at 165 at his age.
I dont have to try that hard to analyze very basic historical context for player weights and size.
You want to be on hte extreme outlier go for it. There was a reason UK had a historically bad defense and it was largely Dillingham.
Seems like they are updating the measurements as they come on the official NBA site here:
10 lbs doesn’t matter nearly as much as you’re acting lmao
It's a huge difference, especially at that size. He has to be Trae Young good offensively to not be a negative on the court.
Mike Conley weighs 175 lbs lol you’re so reactive
6'6 winspan on Conley makes up for it and he's one of hte smartest defenders in the NBA.
I'd stop trying to argue iwth me. Just say you like him in the face of bad numbers and think he is an outlier.
Vecenie’s newest mock has the Jazz taking Dillingham at 10. That would be a dream draft.
No because I think he will fill out his frame fine.
Not really. His size was expected. He's going to be 6'10 in shoes which is around what everyone though. Think maybe some said 6'11.
I think he has the frame to add weight, so I'm not really worried about it. Strength will always be somewhat of an issue for him, but he should be able to play around the mid 210's without much issue down the road.
About Dillingham... whether he's 165 or 175, does it really matter? He will be small either way... he IS small. If you draft him, you draft him knowing he is small, not hoping he will fill out like Donovan Mitchell or something of the sort....
Yes, it matters. 10 lbs is massive difference at that height/weight class. Why are fighting classes separated by that weight increment at lower weights if it didnt matter?
Guards his same height would bully him because most outweigh him by at least 20 lbs. There isnt anywhere you can hide him and his defensive IQ is low.
Stephon Castle 6’2.75 w/o shoes with a 6’8.75 wingspan
