Following Potential 2018 Draftees

Issa Thiam at Rutgers is a legit sleeper.... He's about 6'9", maybe 6'10" and a wing player... Shooting 39% from 3 on decent volume... From Dakar Senegal

Of any player I ever followed that seemed to be 'beyond their years' or an even more apt description would be 'an old soul' Mo Bamba is #1 hands-down, and probably in front of Tim Duncan #2...

I actually wouldn't be surprised whatsoever if he turned out to be one of the greatest of all time.. He's just gonna keep getting better and better and better, like Rudy, and he's way ahead of his pace... I'd bet Rudy is one of his favorite players too..

Now I don't have crazy resources to do all sorts of psych profiling but I follow these stories for years and I am pretty good at reading people, once upon a time i was a deadly poker player. I am a bit of a jerk and pride myself on being 'a man of the millenium' and I think in a way Mo Bamba is a perfect example (along with Karl Anthony Towns) of this new-age NBA man of the millenium type, and I mean obviously I'm joking but Ayton at times seems to be stuck somewhere in the dark ages...

Jazz are going to get the 13th pick and takes Miles Bridges, I can sense it.

I'd be happy with that at 13... either Bridges would be great. I'm worried it is Wendell Carter... only guy in that range I really don't care for.
 
Xavier's coach Chris Mack has really come up with an atrocious gameplan and they are getting mopped by Nova on National TV because of it.

They would be considerably better off in this game had they featured Naji Marshall and Kaiser Gates more, and Bluiett and Macura less. True story.
 
The thing that a casual college fan can't truly appreciate about Knox is just how far he's come in just like, lets say 18 or 24or 30 months, pick any arbitrary # in that sort of range and u will see an EXTREME upward trajectory, where not only did he get into much better (basketball) shape, his skill level improved tremendously too.

He is also a true aged youngster, in this day and age of 20 year old freshman... so he does deserve a lil benefit of the doubt because of that..

Wendell Carter is a great player, y'all know how I hyped Pascal Siakam and he went in the first, Carter to me is like a super rich mans version and he's obviously way younger.
 
Christ Koumadje (who's 7'5" and runs the entire length of the court in like 3 swift steps) is back for FSU and just had a very strong showing vs Louisvilles bigs in the 1st half...

Just cuz I sorta get their methodology on these types of project bigs, but wherever DX has him ranked is way too low, I'm sure of it.. This kid would be a glorious backup project for Utah IMO, he'll likely stay in college for 2 more years tho.

Yeah, me neither, but he is talented. I wouldn't be upset if we got him.I think I might like Bates-Diop better though, even though he is nearly 4 years older.

I like Brown or Musa if we are around 13... and I'm really just punting and hoping to get a good scoring wing.
