I gotta stop watching Villanova live. Wanna to see bridges and he is having an awful game but he plays with a lot of effort.
He also seems to have average athletism. He is also not quick laterally.
He is a monster on defense but might struggle at the next level although Ingles does well.

I am not seeing it. I am seeing a super long player that uses that length very effectively

He doesn't weigh much and plays considerably heavier and taller than listed. Much more athletic than lets say Khris Middleton who's probably a decent comparison point, it's pretty clear come draft time he will be in the 1st rd.
FWIW - My friend who's a Nova die-hard swears that you could see Bridges was going to be this good back in HS.. here's some footage from 2013 that I like.

Is there a president of the Shamet hype train? there should be one.. As an eventual successor to Rubio he'd be perfect. Way better than Wade Baldwin of years past. Possible top-10 tho, he's going to show well late in the process.
being 6'4" is gonna take him a long way.
Jazz still must infuse more firepower, their hands are tied unless they just wanna get their heads kicked in by golden state and houston, so he's gotta be a prime target
I've soured a bit on Sexton and I'm fully on the Trae Young bandwagon.
Sexton is weird for me because he looks much bigger than he actually is. He is basically the exact same size as Trey Burke. I think I overrated his athleticism early in the season. Trae Young is only slightly smaller, but he is way more skilled and a much better passer. I could be completely wrong though. Sexton's motor and effort on defense far exceeds what Young does.

Not Top 5 in this draft. I think he's the leader of the 6-10 group of guys. I love Sexton... he'll be good, but there are so many good point guards and point guard prospects. Think he ends up with the Suns, Cavs, or Magic depending on how the order falls.

Section has been killing it from 3. That was one of the knocks on him

Yeah, he's shooting 47% from 3 on like 4 attempts per game, iirc.
He seems to be able to drive, shoot from the outside, and defend at a high level. It's hard to find players who are good at all three of those things.
