I haven't seen much of Giles, but yeah those are the types of development prospects I'm talking about. He was the top player coming out of high school. If dropped to the Jazz it could be a great opportunity.
I need to watch more of his gameplay.
So I know this isn't a Jazz topic because they will probably be the top two picks, but where do guys stand on Markelle Fultz and Lonzo Ball? I've been hearing a ton of hype about Ball. He looks like a great prospect from the games I've watched. But Fultz looks like the much more polished prospect. I'm not understanding the hype of people saying Ball should go first. Am I missing something?

Elijah Stewart's going into the 2nd rd of my next mock. He had a really nice game vs UCLA last night.
I'm gonna feature more of 'my favorite' players, ones I think should declare this year in the 2nd rd. Stewart and Thybulle will be on there for sure. Jeffrey Carroll

Ball has a lot of regional hype. The Lakers haven't been so ****ty for so many years in a long time so a regional star like him, when they're angling for a top-3 pick is a perfect recipie for the hypemachine to go full throttle. The brothers and father are also a part of it.
Very good basketball player tho. HE's 6'5" andathletic and a great not good PG.. he can shoot from 3 and he's got great instincts on both sides of the ball.. It's not difficult to see how some think he should go #1, he profiles as a franchise pillar and someone who can thoroughly out-play the paygrade of his rookie deal..

Never have I thought Tony Bennett was an overrated coach more than in yesterdays game.. They seem so unprepared.. their offense is too rigid and predictable.. They have such an extremely low margin for error in falling behind, once their down 10 its like their down 20..
I really wonder exactly what kind of favors he's doing these players having them grind it out..
Jay Huff shouldn't have been redshirted his lineups suck too, they lack balance!! his lineups are counter-productive. Guy and Jerome shouldn't be coming off the bench together like that.
Perrantes-Guy-Shayok-Wilkins-Huff
With Jerome and Hall coming off the bench as a plus unit(thats a 3pt shooting unit too). Instead they have Guy and Jerome coming off the bench 2 freshman and it's like a wait and see if they get hot situation, it's not like they surprise anyone, opposition is fully prepared for them which is what happened in this game to Guy..
Can always find games online or some replays on tv.
Yeah he's definitely a good player and a top prospect. Fultz just seems way more polished to me with the same sky high ceiling.

Fultz ceiling is higher because he could be a first or 2nd option offensive player. In a best-case scenario with him u have a player like Prime-D-Wade thats simply a one-man wrecking crew/army..
Lonzo's overrated when it comes to vs Josh Jackson or even Jayson Tatum, who's really been surging of late.. people have deluded themselves into thinking he's a tier above those 2..
I wouldn't say Fultz is more polished tho. Lonzo might be the most NBA ready player in the draft IMO.
