Been saying this for a couple weeks and I’ve got him over VJ and Ace now
He's 23, don't listen to Locke for draft analysis.
(I'm kind of joking, Locke is fine, but he openly admits to not watching college basketball, so just take everything he says with that context)
I thought he also liked Maluach as a pick-and-role finisher. I understand the value of looking for red flags and green flags in college prospects' stats, but they have limited value in projecting what a prospect will become in 3-5 years. You also have to put some of these numbers into context.
It wouldn't surprise me if the Jazz's Big Board has Flagg, Harper and Johnson as the top 3. The incremental reward of Bailey or Edgecombe hitting their ceilings may not justify the risk that their lower floors present.
Traore vs Penda happening right now. I'm guessing nobody is watching?
That's probably a good guess. Most of us have a life.
I mean, you're currently on the internet....
Is Derik Queen actually better than Yang? That's my biggest question. Yang is about 6 months younger and a good 2-3 inches taller.
I really don't know how to evaluate Yang. I wish all draft prospects played in the NCAA.
I don’t really know what to make of Yang either. FWIW, he played really well in the u19 World Cup last year. Looks like he played pretty well against Spain and France.
Against USA he was not efficient, but did post 8/10/7/6. Lot of familiar names on that USA roster like Cody, Harper, Tre, and Newell. Maybe I’ll watch that game if I’m able to find it.

Honestly, I think there’s a lot to the methodology if you’re just identifying the reds and greens (and as a result, yellows as well).
