What happened to alpha kaba? I was a big fan a year or 2 ago when ever he last declared then pulled out.

Kaba was shooting it well from 3 earlier this month and with his 7'5" ws, it looked like he was a good candidate to fly up draft boards but his 3pt shooting has pulled back some, back to the high 20's. He's put on some good weight and is putting up solid #'s.
He's still a mid-2nd rd pick with a chance to hit the fringe 1st in my book. He could also pull out of this draft and he'd be auto-eligible next year..

6'10" Jr. D.J. Wilson on Michigan generated some draft buzz last night. I was watching the game he's got an impressive build/coordination for a player that size.

6'3" freshman PG Tony Carr at Penn State is an under the radar 4-star player. 16ppg 4.3reb, 4.3apg, 2.3 to's on 44% from 3, he's made 2 3's in 4 consecutive starts to his college career. He's been their best player.

UVA is more prepared to deal with the loss of Austin Nichols than many would lead you to believe. RS Freshman Mamadi Diakite is a player to watch 6'9" long athletic shotblocker with 4 blocks off the bench today.

Kennard keeps playing like this he's going into the 1st rd.
Definitely like him better than Allen. Looks like he has higher IQ and game will be more adaptable.

Maryland's Justin Jackson went 5/7 from 3 today, 2 blocks,21 pts 4 rebs. If he keeps shooting like this he could definitely go one-and-done. Been mentioning him here for a while.
Trimble with 27-6-4
Iowa State's Sr. Monte Morris had a triple-doube with 17-10-10 today also.

Tadas Sedekerskis is a player that used to be rated the top European prospect born in 1998, he's a strong 6'8" wing that has nice athleticism, ballskills and playmaking ability. In the past few years he seemed to fall out of favor abit with scouts but DX now has him at #24 in the 2018 mock. He appears to be a decent/improving 3pt shooter, if this kid could shoot the lights out he'd be in lottery conversations for sure.
I'm thinking he might work his way into the 2017 draft.

Could be an interesting fit in Utah.

I'm watching Kansas vs Siena. Notes on prospects below:
Josh Jackson - the first thing that makes immediate impression is that he is not selfish and he has pretty good passing skills for his position and size. 3 offensive possessions in a row 3 different passes - dump off to a cutter, great post entry pass and outlet pass in transition. Good start. I like what I'm seeing. He's also grabbing rebounds seamlessly so far. Shoots the gap on D, intercepts the pass and athletic dunk in transition. Another great defensive possession - blocks a layup attempt from the weakside. A bit too excited and out of control in the transition following the block - gets called for offensive foul(second of the game, I kind of feel both were debatable). Second half - another good defensive possession, followed by another foul... this one was ill-advised... tried to cross the path of the ballhandler... called for blocking foul. His athleticism will be an asset in transition - beautiful layup in stride. Sloppy handle in half-court, tried to split a double, hit opponent's foot... handle needs work. Good awareness on the offensive glass - realized his teammate will likely miss a heavily contested layup, followed him from the 3p line and put it back in. Beautiful lateral quickness on D, cut off a guard without much trouble. 2-hands block in the paint! Nice baseline drive and reverse layup. Post up... turn around jump hook... scores with the glass from about 8-10feet. Damn. I am starting to really like him... I want to see more of his jumpshot. Other than that - a lot of things to like about Jackson. A LOT! Ouch... undisciplined foul on 3p shot.
Svi is not starting... he seems big to me. Probably have grown, bulked up a bit... he used to be very thin. Spot up 3 from the corner is good, 1 dribble pullup - not. Also had a couple of good defensive possessions - good contest on a layup, forced a miss, denied the ball on the wing in the other possession. Svi doesn't do much on offense, they are not relying on him to create, sits in the corner waiting for passes. Svi can still pass... and moves his feet well on D. Had to wait until the last minutes to see what I thought he was capable of - nice drive into the paint and athletic finish at the rim. Why did they wait until the game's decided to give him freedom to operate with the ball? Follows the layup with a 3.
