2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

Probably saw how much his stock dropped after a year of subpar effort. He likes money.
Huh? He didn't give subpar effort at Indiana. He has his inconsistencies but overall was very good this year. He really struggled his freshman year at Oregon but was also extremely skinny which impacted what he could do on the floor. He basically just floated around the perimeter with Oregon.
 
Edey beat Sarr's land agility drill. Dude might be a consensus top 10 after today. lol.

Yeah, but there's plenty of tape showing how well Sarr runs the floor. Running for a short drill isn't the same as getting up and down for 15 minutes. That's the question with Edey. Teams are going to push the pace on him.
 
I'm not buying into any of the C's three point shooting, and for Edey and Clingan I don't want them spacing out either.
 
With Zach Edey, you pretty much need to design your team around him -- slow the pace, play in the half court, dump the ball in, let him draw defenders, etc. It's like building around Yao Ming. It's definitely a zig to everyone else's zag.
This gives me the flashbacks of designing the team around Gobert. The problem with building a team to cover for the weaknesses of your starting center that it REALLY limits your options: you need to trade for or draft other players with a very specific skillset. You have to either wait for these players to become available or to settle for less-than-ideal matches like Bojan.

I'm not truly buying it in a meaningful way but I think Edey has the most potential there based on SEVERAL clips I've seen on twitter. Pretty big sample.
