Following Potential 2025 Draftees

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I’d say he’s on the smaller side, but it’s his weight that’s dragging him down. With time he could be considered average or slightly above it.

180 lbs for his frame is very good weight, especially for his age and even more so when you consider his speed with the ball. For reference, he's 10 lbs heavier than Fox when he was drafted. Fox was also a full year older when drafted.

If it's Tre or Fears, then give me Fears.

Extremely physical with the way he drives as well. He could have exponential gains once he can take hits a bit better. He uses his body a ton.

I wouldn't say I love Fears (ballhandling) or Tre (deep shotmaking) as prospects, but I do think they both have an elite skill that is amongst the best in recent memory.

I would be OK with Fears if he is an exceptional ballhandler and passer
He seems on the small size but if he is elite passer/ballhandler/ defender no objections

Givony has us taking Fears with Ace and Tre still on the board

The Jazz put out intel that Fears crushed his 2nd workout. I think it’s probably smoke. Otherwise, why put it out? The Jazz maybe trying to get Washington to trade up to 4 to draft Fears.

Not an elite passer, but an elite penetrator who can make passes.

Look... I can tell you the Fears stuff is not a smokescreen. Not to go all @bigmike on you... but the have real interest.

I think taking Fears at 5 would cause me to crash out. If we traded down for something fairly decent and then took him... I guess... but good hell Ainge has a type. Like there are other notes on the piano my dude.

Fears has probably spent more time mocked to the Jazz by Givony than any other player. You may not like him, but you've just gotta accept it as a real possibility at this point.

I think as far as size for a pg. He isn't small or big (once he fills out). I think size for a primary creator/initiator he is small for sure.
