What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

their builds are almost identical

Are they though? Gobert weighed 240 when he was drafted.

Jeanne currently sits at 209.

That's a picture of Gobert when he was with his French Club team, Cholet. He is skinny, but he has some trunks on him. Not rail thin legs.

Jeanne has toothpicks for legs.
 
i wouldn't mind seeing the jazz swing for the fences with this Diallo kid. besides the length and athleticism, he has a nice looking shooting stroke. but its his length and athleticism that sets him apart and they appear to be elite.

If the Jazz take him they'll send him to P3 and get him in the weight room. All the guys at the end of the first have something to work on.
 
Eh, they are just legs. Several basketball players have skinny legs. Kevin Durant isn't supported by tree trunks. If he has potential I don't care how skinny those legs are. It's not a beauty contest.

Cy likes em thick.
 
Not sure if there has been a ton of discussion on semi out of SMU... I think I'm pretty awful at projecting draft guys and he is old, but man he tics a lot of boxes for me. I'd be pretty happy taking him with either first round pick.

Not much of a fan of leaf... makes threes and can finish but I think his game is pretty limited.

Could talk myself into Kennard because he's a shooter but am concerned with him having the length to compete at the NBA level.

Giles would be a worthwhile gamble. Last couple drafts some top rated guys have fallen and proved to be good values.
