BTW Jaren Jackson Jr(MSU Commit) who I've been posting about in the 2018 thread has many parallels with Alpha Kaba(very similar builds) except Jaren's a much more fluid athlete.... Definitely a superior prospect in my book even though Kaba's shot is better(Jaren's is funky).
I'm kinda down with the wait til 2018 to get bigs train of thought.. there's certainly at least some substance to it... I wouldn't want to overlook this years crop but next years crop of bigs being stronger looks like a safe bet..

what a show from Peter Jok tonight. He's definitely good enough to get drafted in the late 2nd even considering his advanced age.
30pts for Markannen tonight..
Zach Collins with another beastly line for Gonzaga off the bench in limited minutes. He pretty much plays 'the Enes Kanter role' for them..
Huge win for Utah over USC. Metu showed well. Poor night for Melton offensively. Not Kuzma's best game but a W over a ranked opponent is a nice W.
Ivan Rabb with 20 and 14 in a W over Washington. Not a good game from Fultz.
Right now Colorado-UCLA looks like a good game.

Aaron Holiday would start for like 98.5% of the teams in Div-1. He's the difference in this game thru 20 minutes of play. His games been razor sharp all season and doesn't appear to be dulling down any..

Kennard might be the better shooter but no way in hell is he a better player then Jon AT THIS MOMENT, Not even close and come on bro you cant really believe he is either.

I was saying since start of big10 play last season that Jok is going be a solid nba player. Perfect 3D canidate

Jackson needs another year of college,imo. He is a tweener at this point of his career. Needs to improve his handles and shooting and then he could be a top 30 draft selection. Another year in the Big10 and he could be a heck of a college player. First team All BIg next year and if Melo comes back another that will only help Jackson development. I think Melo is going be a better pro then he is a college player

Even tho UW stinks, Matisse Thybulle could end up a good roleplayer. He's got a long way to go but best case he ends up like a Danny Green type. His wingspan looks like a legit 7' IMO he's sorta built like Exum. He's very limited with the ball in his hands tho, guys like that tend to go undrafted - see Wayne Selden.
Doesn't turn 20 til March so he's got time. If I was him I'd test the waters this year and probably wait til 2018.
Ivan Rabb isn't gonna fall to the Jazz but it'd be a Hood type of No-brainer pick if he did. He'd perform well defensively and on the glass immediately..

Fultz has the potential to be extremely efficient on just 2 or 3 or 5 dribbles - in that sense he's got some Steve Francis to his game. This is probably understated on the list of reasons why he's gonna be devastating(and why he's going #1).
This is not a good showing from him though, especially in the first 15 minutes of the 2nd half - The Huskies really could've used an injection of offense from him.. Probably cost them the game, doesn't mean a damn thing tho. Markelle's pretty much cemented himself at the top spot on the board IMO, I'm sold. 99/100 grade.

Watching the Cal-Washington replay btw. Announcer just said "Sometimes I look at Ivan Rabb and think he's left-handed" Been posting here he's like David Lee on offense for years!! Defensively/on the boards he projects to be something like an Amir Johnson.

Career-high 31pts along with 12boards 3ast 1stl 2 blks for BYU's Eric Mika last night vs San Francisco. Despite his advanced age he's certainly on the fringe of being draftable.

BTW --2017 would've been Exum's final year of draft eligibility. I know people here complain about my tendency to look years ahead, In my view this stuff passes rather quickly tho.
