Following Potential 2025 Draftees

Edgecombe will beat his defender. What happens next is a bit of a question, but he should at least draw fouls. If nothing else, he's bigger and bouncier than Collin Sexton, so he'll put more pressure on the rim and get defenders backpedalling. His development depends on improving his ability to play on the ball and make decisions. As it stands, he'll fly to the rim on cuts and probably make enough 3s to be considered a 3D guard.

I had him projected to go 7 - 9. Maybe he goes a spot or two ahead of that, like 6 or 7.

I have no idea why people don't trust VJ's ballhandling – or trust it to develop to the level of a starting NBA combo guard.

His dribbling is not showy. He's not a ball pounder, which is a great sign in a young, hyper athletic guard. Edgecombe only dribbles when there's a purpose, and he's just as happy cutting and moving without the ball. Another great sign.

In fact, that's probably why I love watching him. Just a natural baller who moves like he was made in a lab to play this sport and understands how the game moves.
