Following potential 2017 draftees...

Here's an absurdly underrated (3 star) prospect, that has a DX profile which reads "Potential NBA prospect" in the outlook. something doesn't add up... He's 6'7" long, bouncy as hell, dunk contest worthy, and has a nice looking jump-shot. Bit of a Ballhog/chucker. UCLA bound. Will be an interesting prospect to track, he's from the Philippines.

We dont like people with the name of Kobe around here.
 
Kobe's dad is a former Phillipino basketball player who was one of the best in the league. His dad is also a famous actor in the Philippines and his mother was a model/actress. His brother is also an actor/model in the Phillipines. It's safe to say this dude has probably had it pretty easy and just dominated the Philippines in HS, which is probably why he can't pass or play consistent defense (from what DX says), he never had to.

Heh, Thon Maker is still shrouded in mystery at this point, and with his brother around it's easy for them to kick up dust in any direction. I still think Kentucky will swoop in and get him somehow. Arizona St. seems to be the favorite at this point.


You know there's a second Bongo right? Class of '18, he's already the same size as Myck, and holds offers from Indiana and Virginia Tech. his OFFICIAL mixtape just dropped;

Time to resurrect bongofanz.com

This mix that dropped the otherday on Sacha Killeya-Jones is my favorite one out there. After further consideration, I think he's probably a 5 star talent and could even be a one-and-done if he continues to add strength at this current pace.

At this point I prefer him over T.J. Leaf as an NBA prospect, who's rated near the top-10 by the services..

As I understand it, SKJ Is the type of player who's really got many different tricks in his bag, he's equipped with basically all the tools you'd look for from a PF and really just needs experience and good coaching.

I'd bet in the not too distant past he had no idea how good he was capable of being. Reminds me a bit of Ivan Rabb these days.

The thing is, at UCLA he's going to play with Lonzo Ball, who literally throws QB type passes to cherry pickers like its standard. Paras couldn't ask for a better PG to play with.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQkt1l5X6P8 - 4 points 8 assists 12 rebounds.. (check out the passes!!)

I can't ever remember seeing a player display the type of vision that Ball has in HS.. I can't really hate on the Jason Kidd comparison that some have made.

Yeah, but is this dude really going to be playing that much (or being able to facilitate as much as he would like if he does play) with the Coach's son also playing PG?

Also, 4 pts, 8 assists, 12 rebounds sucks for a HS game. Let's be honest.

If its stats you're looking for, Lonzo Ball posts these insane triple doubles, regularly... Some like to question the competition he's playing against. Recently vs 5-star Kobi Simmons one of the other top Guards in the class of 2016, he dropped 36-10-9 and then 22, 16 and 12 vs Mustapha Heron's(2016 5 star SF) AAU team. The AAU team with Ball and his Bro's play at a lightning quick pace, thats conducive to outrageous stat lines.

his release is really funky, this video shows it well. Almost fools me into thinking hes about to throw a pass sometimes. the youngest brother, LaMelo, is in these highlights playing against competition near 5 years older, Lonzo passes him the ball at 0:33. He gets his other bro LiAngeo an open look at 1:15.
 
Any U of U fans remember Kim Tillie from a few years back? Well his younger brother, Killian, whos near 6'10 looks pretty good. Worthy of mention in these threads.

I'm posting 3 x 3 highlights just because.

The best Japanese player you will ever see, guaranteed!! Looks to have a ton of potential IMO. a gigantic SF prospect with a nose for the ball. he will certainly fill out to have an imposing frame. DX has a scouting report on him already.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byerU97C-Pw - In the game vs the US in these highlights, you can see the lopsided score... I think at one point it was 47-8 and Rui scored all 8. He ended up leading the event in scoring.
