What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

Dedric Lawson with 19-15-8ast-1stl-2blks in victory over South Carolina last night.


Oregon St.'s C 6'10" Drew Eubanks could be an interesting player for Utah. He's like a much better/more athletic version of Jack Cooley.


USC got thwacked for their first L of the season v Oregon last night. Metu was 1/12 from the field, Melton was decent tho. Dillon Brooks was lights-out for Oregon.
 
Loaded schedule for prospect watching today, lots of big games tipping early. It's already kicked off with #11 Xavier and Georgetown on FS1. Edmond Sumner's off to a good start.
 
I've seen many Xavier games already this season and I'm pretty confident Utah won't be drafting Edmond Sumner with one of the 1st rd picks.

He lacks the polish I was hoping to see after all the summer hype and a very productive Fr. season. At this point to me he's very much like a DeJounte Murray of yesteryear - Lottery tools but also a tendency to become unbridled...

The $64,000 question is; how far away is he? Thts where I get hung up when It comes to the Jazz - I can't see them trying to groom him to be a reliable backup quickly a la Trey Lyles.

What exactly is the plan with all these draft picks tho?? I'm not sure. If they're going to load up the D-league squad I could see him serving some purpose as a player to be groomed as a Burks insurance policy/possible combo down he road.




Jessie Govan on Georgetown 0-3 in the 1st half. LJ Peak who's a Chris Johnson/Norman Powell type and a Jr./possible 2nd rd pick is carrying the Hoya's and has 16pts on 7/11 shooting.


noon games tipping off!!

Duke's down 15 with 3 to-go int he 1st half to Va Tech. If it wasn't for Kennard this would be over already. Career high 4pts and counting for Giles.
 
Was definitely right about Anas Mahmoud(Used to point out how underrated he was in DX's rankings - and still is at 36 in the Jr. list). Easily an NBA talent. Possibly draftable this year. He's battling Thomas Bryant well. Reminds me a bit of Withey but he's got more upside IMO.

Deng Adel looks great. He's showing traces of being a big-game player. I'd take him over Dwayne Bacon.
 
lmao then Kennard misses a FT as overrated chant starts. How you going to miss 2 of 3 stat pad FT's with no pressure, cmon Kennard. Should have had that 36 point game.
 
They are/were overrated, so many Duke fans swore they were hands down the best team when healthy. Marques Bolden has no business in anyone's top20 or 2017 1st rd mock, unless they're biased.


Only thru the first half (great action btw on FS1) but Justin Patton is going into the top-20, as the picture of the bigs in the 20-40 range becomes less murky he's clearly one of the winners (so far -- Drew Eubanks too). It'd be most fortunate if he fell to the Jazz pick.

I don't like what Coach K is doing either. I'd use Tatum and the bench/rotation much differently.

#20 FSU v #12 UVA tipping off soon.
 
I'm telling ya Kyle Guy is gonna blow up. The announcer was talking about how he didn't miss a shot in warmups, comes in the game and drills a 3 right away.


He's like a young 2005 2nd rd pick Travis Diener but 2" taller.
 
How has Tatum looked? I see a bit of Tobias Harris in him, though Tatum may be a bit more athletic and is a better lateral defender.
