Very interested to see how Zhaire Smith measures out.
Jontay Porter continues to grow on me. He shows great decision making and passing, plus nice effort and awareness on defense. I think the Jazz are going to like him.
Some one please explain why Trevon Bluiett is not talked about more. I havent had a chance to watch any Xavier games but looking at stats he seems like a solid early second round pick.
6'5" good height for a 2 guard
43.4% from 3 on 7 attempts per game
84% from the FT line
45% from the field
19 ppg as a senior
He has increased in most statistical fields every year
I am guess he is a poor defender
He only has average athletiscim
Low steals .7 per game
only 2.7 assists
He will be 24 just after the season starts (November 4, 1994 (age 23))

After watching that video I'm 1000% in on the guy... checked the stats. Think he could be a great stretch 4. Seems to move really well and plays BIG at the rim. 3 blocks per 30 minutes. He needs more minutes. His game logs seem to be trending up.
Check out his offensive and defensive rating on the link above... 123.4 ORTG, 65% TS%. Doesn't take enough threes but it looks like butter. Good passing especially for a big.
The surface volume numbers look pedestrian, but doing a per 40 and deep dive I'm surprised I've never heard of the kid. Just turned 20 so it ain't like he's an old sophomore or something.
Great find.
6'5½" in shoes with a 6'9" wingspan. I saw Tankathon put him in the lottery, not that they know what their doing, I just use that to check the tank race, tried to give y'all a warning a few months back about him as the most underrated 4-star that slipped under my nose.
I am interested to see if or how the Jazz pick is influenced by Phoenix this draft season.
Phoenix has a roster full of young prospects, they have 12 players under contract for next season without counting FA's Alex Len or Elfrid Payton.
And Phoenix currently holds the 3, 15, 16, 33, 58 picks in the draft. I can't believe agents or prospects are lining up to go there.
If the Jazz squeeze into the playoffs they will be right there with the 15-16 picks. Meanwhile the Bottom 8 teams are separated by a game or less, so we could see something like Phoenix drafting 8 or 9 and jazz 12-14. I love the potential draft drama.
Milwaukee?
