Following Potential 2018 Draftees

Bonga is a non shooting Ingles

Bonga is taller, longer, faster and shiftier than Ingles. He's got potential for a real off-the-dribble game.

He needs to mature, add strength and works on his shooting, but if he puts it together he could be an impact player. He's the proverbial 2 years away.

Kurucs is now listing at 6'10". See if he draws some comparisons to Saric this year. He'd be a good 2nd-round pick.

Was just reading an article on kurucs and how Barcelona has been hiding him. Part because he refused to sign a long term contract with them.

He has a large buyout this year but none next year. He either gets drafted this year and stashed a year or he goes back and gets drafted next year.

Because he has been jerked around he is trying to hard in the games he gets to play and hasn't been doing well. A lot has to do with lack of consistent playing time.

If he has a buy-out, he'd be better off getting picked in the 2nd round. Then I think the team can pay him whatever they want and can pay enough to cover his buyout.

Or you just leave him in Europe for a year until there is 0 buyout

Catchall you have a weird fetish for dudes who are just long and have actually shown no real ability to play basketball at a high level.

as the season has gone on Hart has gotten better and O'Neale has gotten worse. Don't get me wrong I love my Jazz but Hart would have been a great addition.

Yeah because as the season has gone on for the Lakers they have dropped out of the playoff race and there is no pressure on him as a rookie. He can just go out and use possessions.

O'Neale is playing high pressure basketball as a defensive role player and trying not to make mistakes.

If he falls to the 2nd, I’d consider trading up for him. I’d also consider bringing hm over right away. Seems like Barcelona screws with young players with NBA potential and it takes them awhile to make the transition when they do come over. Rather not wait unless the buyout is too extreme.

I would draft him in the second too

Long, athletic, coordinated and skilled, yes. That's where the best players come from.

It's also where players like Bruno Cabocolo come from.

You tried convincing us Kostas was a first round pick despite him being awful and no where close to a NBA player.

I don't know much about Cabloco, never watched him. The NBA is about skilled length and speed. Players that don't have it can't create space for themselves.

As for Kostas, he does have tools to be a defensive player, maybe more.
