Following Potential 2018 Draftees

[Saint Cy of JFC]

So this is a list of everyone but centers?

Lead guards
Combo guards
Wings
Combo Forwards
Stretch 4's
Bigs

So I would say those top 6 are a combination of people I consider wings and combo forwards (wings who could/should play the 4).

Marvin Williams? How good is this kid's handle and passing?

This shows some of it, especially near the end.

This is a HS mixtape, mostly junior year. You can see that he's much tighter and more of a downhill player than Knox so far.

This is more recent. According to the UK Pro Day (https://www.seccountry.com/kentucky/kentucky-uk-basketball-pro-day-measurements-heights-vertical) he's 6'9" with a 7'1" wingspan and 39.5" max vertical. Croca-Dante was onto Vanderbilt before me.

He is purely a PF and I don't see him having any ability to play the 3. Overrated because of huge wingspan IMO. Solid prospect, but I don't see him having lottery potential.

Curious that you think Musa has lottery potential. He plays for Barcelona's b team and if he doesn't play well there that is going to kill him. I would love to see him get some time on team A but it is what it is.

Regarding Jaren Jackson, I think he will probably go lottery and at the moment, I think it's a push whether he'd go before Robert Williams. If he can shoot the ball and show some real offense, he's likely to go top 7 or 8, imo.

I like Knox too. If we miss out on Doncic/Porter/Bagley, Knox would be a good consolation prize.

Knox is also very young. He'll still be 18 at the time of the draft this next spring.

Robert Williams would be a nice consolation prize also.

Robert Williams would be a nice consolation prize also.

Welcome back Xthren, we missed ya.

He's 6'9", he can shoot, and he can play on the wing. That's appealing. He'll defend a little bit, I think. He won't get left completely behind like Doug McDermott.

where did I go?
