Following potential 2017 draftees...

Frank Mason was asked how he would want to die by an NBA team at the combine during an interview lol.

I want to die with the sword of my enemy buried deep in my chest. As my warm blood wets my shirt and runs down his sword to the hilt, I will look my enemy in the eye and nod my head acknowledging his courage and skill. As I slump to the ground I will smile as I look upon the heaps of dead and dying warriors who moments ago tasted death at the end of my blade. I will close my eyes knowing I died well because I lived well.
 
Will be interesting to see where DX mocks Frank Jackson now that he has declared. They have kept him in the 2018 draft for the past month.

this is the correct answer. I'd pick you in the top 10 without knowing anything other than this.

If he was there at #30 I think we'd take him. Could see the nets and magic going after him before then though.
 
So can Luke Kennard play some PG in our system? I think people see him as JJ Reddick 2.0 but I don't think he's as good of a shooter and I think he's a much better ball handler, passer, and finisher around the basket. I dismissed him because he's undersized for the 2 and not very athletic, but he could be a tough cover in the PnR and on a team that moves the ball could really stretch the defense and make the right pass as the defense is shifting.
 
are there any other notable mid to late first rounders who haven't signed with agents?

Is it bad form to answer your own question? Irregardless, I found DX has this really neat feature:

It shows as undecided:

Frank Ntilikina,
Rodions Kurucs,
Semi Ojeleye,
Caleb Swanigan,
DJ Wilson,
Tony Bradley,
Hamidou Diallo

Pertinent to our conversation about Frank jackson, DX has him ranked 48th out of prospects declaring for the draft in their list which includes many who may withdraw later.

I don't really think so.
