Following 2016 potential draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
have you seen him play? Can you tell us more about him?
He is Hezonja-like in that he is both athletic and a great shooter. Quick release. Quick first step. Saw limited minutes with Anadolu Efes but shows great potential as a scorer. Heard some comparisons to Rudy Fernandez but I think he could be much better. Will probably be the best guard out of Turkey.
He has a game in 6 hours I think, in Fiba u19 tournament.
And the connection between Lamarcus Aldridge and San Antonio? Is that tampering too? LMA informed the Spurs and the Lakers that he was opting out, so the teams could draft accordingly. Lakers draft a guard. Spurs draft a stash pick.
Got to love the battle of the shoe companies. Because he has a contract with Adidas and the Croatian federation has a deal with Jordan Brand does not look like he will be playing in the U19 championships starting today including a game against the US. US has big time prospects as well.

I only eat the blue ones. Other colors taste like blah.
I wasn't thinking Poeltl. I actually thought you were thinking something completely different.
Oh well, things will change a lot between now and then.
Yah pretty sure Zhou wont even end up in this draft, If I'm the Jazz and he continues to improve/add weight, I'd give him a promise(unless the Jazz somehow are headed to the lottery). For some reason I just think the Jazz will go for a 7'er.
I think the following redundant targets can be eliminated from the list of possible draftee's; Henry Ellenson, Diamond Stone, Egemen Guven, Nigel Hayes, Domantas Sabonis and possibly Damian Jones.. (after the Lyles selection)
Also ESPN released a 2016 mock with Malik Pope 5th overall.. quite the discrepancy with DX whos got him 29th.
I kind of think ESPN is closer to the truth than DX right now. He probably won't be top 5, but he seems a lock for the lottery unless he really sucks next year.

Well dont actually think ESPN's was a mock draft more of the big board variety. Ford has been very high on Pope.
Yep, Dragan out. Would have been a good chance for him to impress scouts and see how he plays against the US kids.
Only light blue jelly beans are any good.
