Following Potential 2018 Draftees

Comparing Royce to Hayward huh Cy? Grasp at some more straws. Pretty sad an undrafted rookie averaged what your golden boy did considering it took Royce half the year to carve out a role unlike the lottery pick "good NBA player as a rookie."

Wrong again troll boy

I'm more impressed with the Okobo footage they posted and the production. He looks like he might have a decent wingspan... anyone seen a reliable measurement. I think Okobo has a higher ceiling and floor than Simons and that Simons is riding mystery hype.

I've read it's 6'8" but not sure where it was measured. Probably at some of the Euro camps. Okobo is definitely ahead of Simons on my board. Okobo will be top 10 for me. I think I will have him ahead of Trae Young.
 
Vert is actually one of the better indicators, in the NFL too. I remember reading something years ago that said that and had thresholds posted I think for bigs it was 32"+

How long have they done the athletic testing and has there been any analytical breakdown of the prospects over time for any indicators?

Okobo's wingspan is at a minimum 6'7". If he ends up the pick there's gonna be some nice bump material from last years thread from yours truly.
 
The first full game I saw of Okobo's last szn he hit a buzzer beater from 3 off the dribble to win it, i was thoroughly entertained.

Some people compare him to Dennis Schroeder for some reason. I think he looks a lot better than Schoeder during pre-draft.

No, as I pointed out here way ahead of time Schroder shouldve been a lotto pick, ****, lets be real - he shouldve been the jazz lotto pick....

I wouldnt take him over Simons either.

Paul Pierce could finish at the rim. He could dunk. This guy doesn't show anything like that. And these are in his highlights vs. college kids. Maybe he'll develop more than I think, perhaps even grow another half inch or so, I don't know. But I personally don't want him.

I've seen Troy Brown throw down some nice dunks. Ultimately he's redundant with Exum tho, wont be the pick.

Okogie has a big it factor vibe to him. What's his knock? Defensive effort?

Short and played at Georgia Tech for a coach many use as a punchline in Josh Pastner. I've been trying to hype him here as better than Grayson Allen for some time, a notion many laugh at in ACC circles but is seeming more and more likely.
 
This is late but worth mentioning Kris Wilkes and Jaylen Hands return to UCLA. The SF depth was hurt most by these recent withdrawals
