Following potential 2017 draftees...

Wesley Iwundu blows pretty bad. He has some skills. He certainly looks the part, but he needs a year in the D-League. I'd draft him with the Jazz's last pick and put him in w/ the Stars all year. Bad jumper and doesnt know how to use his tools to attack. Looks good in the PNR though ,very comfortable and can see over the top to make the easy passes.
 
A ton of improvement from him is needed


QUOTE=JustTheTip;1418540]Bam is an energy big with limited offensive skills. Will need a lot of development.[/QUOTE]
 
If you watched him at KSU you would know that he does know how to attack. Pickup games with teamates you never played with isn't the best way to judge a kids game.maybe try watching them in college and you would know more about the player.

No one that knows bball would ever comparebBam to CWebb. Webber had all around game and a fantastic bball iq which made him a lethal passer if the other team decided to double team him..no one is going to double down on BAM... KEMP was ONE of the top atHLETES to ever play the position .comparing Bam to those 2 is inaccurate and really is just lazy comparisons.

I'm comparing their physical profiles. Bam actually is that caliber of athlete. Since you mentioned it, I looked up Chris Webber's freshman stats to compare to Bam's ---

Webber -- 6'9", 245 lbs
32 MPG, 15.5 PPG, .556 FG%, 10.0 RPG, 2.2 APG, 2.5 BPG

Adebayo -- 6'10", 243 lbs
30 MPG, 13.0 PPG, .601 FG%, 8.0 RPG, 0.8 APG, 1.5 BPG

So yeah, Webber is a better player and more versatile offensive player. I'm not saying Bam should be a #1 pick like Webber was. I'm saying that Bam has a lot of potential and looks underrated.

Saying he can't develop other parts of his game is like saying Ben Simmons will never develop a jump shot. Remember that Favors couldn't do much of anything offensively when he came in the league. Players develop their games. It happens. And this guy has a lot of great tools. I'm pretty sure he's going to be in the discussion at #24 if he drops that far.
 
Regarding Jeanne, he was in the mid 30's and jumped up to 24 after the combine. What could have happened to make his stock jump like that after a sub-par showing in the scrimmages?

Post-combine DX mock draft.

Pretty crazy stuff happened.

- They have Jeanne going 24th to Utah. After what I saw from Jeanne, I would be skeptical of that choice at 24.

- Ferguson drops to 25

- Frank Jackson at 36

- Kuzma up to 44

Oh stop it with Jeanne. We caught lightening in a bottle once already. And Ferguson is a legit 3/D wing with the potential to be more. No way he drops that far. There's obviously a range of opinions on Giles. Ford insists he's lottery. Adebayo back in the 2nd round after he tested like a beast. Your Kuzma jumped up about 10 spots. No movement on Bell.

I would jump all over Ferguson at 24. Giles being ranked so low is weird considering ESPN is saying he's a potential lottery pick. Bam in the second-round is weird too.
