Following Potential 2025 Draftees

Right now, the Jazz would be guaranteed a top 5 pick. Assuming they don’t trade it, they walk away with one of Flagg, Harper, Bailey, Edgecomb or Johnson.

Also assuming the Wolves pick ends up somewhere between 17 - 21. Who is the guy you want the most that should realistically be there?

Going off of Tankathon, the names there are Liam McNeeley, Ben Saraf, Thomas Sorber, and Rasheer Fleming.

I would be ok with any of those names. The draft is pretty flat from like 8-25 in my opinion, so I think there will definitely be interesting names on the board at that point. If we are looking for guys that can come in and contribute right away Fleming is probably the name.

Tankathon also has Labaron Philon available at that spot as well. If he declares and if he is available there, that would probably be my pick. He is the best on ball guard defender in the draft and we desperately need that.

Good tape on CMB, one of the best defensive prospects in the class. He has toughness, physicality and versatility that the Jazz currently lack.

CMB is probably top 5 on my homer list, but I'm not sure I would even want the Jazz to draft him if he was available with the Minnesota pick. I suppose he's like Queen where he really needs to go to the right situation.

Maybe I just don't have enough imagination, but I just can't see how his game works in the NBA. I still love him though and really really hope that he figures it out in the NBA, because I would love to watch him dominate in the league.

I just saw Sanon is leaving AZ St. For St. Johns. One thing to consider is that with revenue sharing basketball only schools will have a bigger piece of the pie for their schools.

Yes. I imagine it's a bigger piece of a much smaller pie (w/o football revenue), but a heft chunk of NIL $ will go way further in hoops than it will trying to build a two-deep football roster.

Another big day for NBA prospects in the tourney:

Egor, Philon, Queen, Condon, Bryant, Flagg, Kon, Khaman, Fland, Toppin all playing today.

Philon is really intriguing. Could see him being overshadowed a bit by Sears and having more that he hasn't shown. He might make life tough for Demin.
 
How would we view VJ if we knew nothing about him before? I wonder if he's suffering from the "underwhelming" effect.

His usage is 100% effected by playing next to 4 other 5-year guys, so that definitely effects his counting stats. I think he has still been able to give a pretty good idea of what he can do with his limited reps. I think it's clear he's probably not a 100% on ball guy in the NBA, which is tough when you don't shoot it great. I think he's shown enough to believe he is at least a part time on ball guy though, and his shot isn't so bad that I don't think it can't improve.

If he does end up getting the best of Egor in this game, you can guarantee he will let Egor know all about it, lol.
 
Philon is amazing on paper....he just doesn't have great physical tools some I'm worried about his transition to the NBA.
