Following Potential 2018 Draftees

The black kid from Japan can ball. I seen him play a few times. Great motor. Will have one the best motors in Nava next year. He would run over his grandmother to get a ball, that's the type of motor he has

Gonzaga rising sophomores Rui Hachimura (Japan) and Killian Tillie (France) both had solid showings in Cairo, an important sign for last year's NCAA tournament finalists considering the amount of firepower the Bulldogs lost. Despite playing a combined 17 minutes per game last season, Hachimura and Tillie could very well end up being the main anchors of Gonzaga's frontcourt alongside fifth-year senior Johnathan Williams. Hachimura, in particular, is interesting even from an NBA standpoint, standing 6-foot-8 with a wingspan of more than 7-feet, huge hands, a strong frame and what appears to be a significantly improved jump shot. Defensively, he's somewhat caught between positions. Offensively, he needs to improve his awareness and ball-handling skills to emerge as a more consistent contributor for Gonzaga as an upperclassman.[/QUOTE]

Rui and Tillie being mentioned. Those are my guys

Stanford-bound Oscar Da Silva opened up quite a few eyes playing for Germany. The 6-foot-9, Swiss-army-knife power forward showed the ability to defend positions 1-5 with his elite-level mobility, length, body control and smarts. He also did a great job of pushing the ball in transition and finding the open man with impressive court vision. The son of a Brazilian-born boxer, Da Silva speaks six languages and is bound to become a crowd favorite in Palo Alto. He has legitimate NBA potential once his body fills out and he finds a way to translate his smooth shooting stroke in warmups to game settings.

Ok I have a few more players I am keeping my eye on for the following season. This is in addition to my boys Killian Tillie and rui hachimura

Miles bridges - I know he is a common pick for the lottery but with the talent he might be there in the back half of the lottery. He is just so explosive and fun to watch. He shoots a respectable amount from 3. With his 7' wing span he might be able to play small ball 4.

Landry Shamet - I know the jazz don't need another PG with Rubio, exum, Mitchell and Neto all pg options but Shamet has an amazing court vision and passing insticts. Not to meant his 44% from 3 on 3 attempts per game. He has shades of curry in the way he plays. (Curry light) 6'4" is nice size but he is not very athletic

Trevon Bluiett - at 6'6" has decent size to play the wing. His shot s compact and quick.

I wish Bridges were an inch or two taller. I like his game though, and liked him more than Tatum last year.
