Following Potential 2025 Draftees

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Here is an ape-ton of Fears highlights. A dynamic lead guard has tremendous positional value if he's high enough level. Fears probably is if he can get his efficiency up. I feel better about Fears' on-ball creation holding up in the playoffs than VJ Edgecombe's. His shiftiness with the ball might be his best skill at the moment. If the Jazz draft at #5 and Flagg, Harper, Johnson and Bailey are off the board, I think Fears v. Edgecombe becomes a real debate.

I’m not understanding why Maluach is so highly regarded? Now I admit I’m not some avid college bball fan and my knowledge on some of these players is lacking, but I’ve seen two duke games and came away very impressed with Kon and Flagg but not so much on Maluach. Seems he is mostly mocked in the 8-12 range, and I just don’t see it. Not skilled, not much offense and not a very high motor. The two games I watched he didn’t have more than 3-4 rebounds in either game. What am I missing?

His handle and body control are pretty special. He's just 18. From his workout vids, it looks like he's bulking up a bit. He's got to make his shots, but yeah I'm starting to get what people are seeing in him.

I think he will stink at the next level.

There is a lot of fall in love with in Fears. I think he’s def in play if we fall to 5.

For every big that sucks at basketball but succeeds because of their physical prowess, there are 10 that just suck.

Im with ya. I want no part of him

We also have a legit NBA player that would play in front of him and neither he nor Maluach are anything but pure centers. Just absolutely no reason to incur that opportunity cost.

In my opinion he doesn't have good enough vision/passing to be a lead guard right away, but maybe it's something he could develop.
