Following Potential 2025 Draftees

[SoberasHotRod]

I would be more open to Tre Johnson if he could beat guys off the dribble and get to the FT line. It’s a possibility that he develops that in the NBA, but if you can’t get to the hoop or FT line in college chances are you can’t do that in the NBA either. And again, it could happen. It’s just rare and not something I’d count on. Tough shot making isn’t a more valuable skill to me than creating efficient shots. Tre is an elite shooting prospect, but the rest of his game leaves a lot to be desired.

I think he be coached up on how to get in to a guys' chest and get shots up after contact. There are some guys that just don't like contact, and I suppose he could be that, but when I watched him play it just felt like didn't know what to do.

Apologies if this has already been posted, but this NBA scout (at least that what he claims) who is doing these breakdowns of all the draft guys absolutely gushes over Danny Wolf, says he can contribute in the NBA right away. What he points out is pretty compelling, but my biggest problem is that he is only watching highlights of his makes, not any of his misses.

His FTr and rim rate could improve…History just says it’s unlikely. When it does happen, it’s usually a guy who expanded his role in the NBA. He’s probably going to rely on being a very elite jump shooter and score like Hero, Murray, McCollum etc. And to be fair to Tre, he might just be that guy. His shooting was incredible. It’s just a tough way to make a living in the NBA and he’s not my preferred archetype as we’ve discussed before.

If anything I think he might be taller than 6'10 in shoes. One of the youngest players, could have easily put on another half inch to inch since the start of the Rutgers season.

we'll find out within about a week.

Ringer's primary comp is Gordon Hayward...with a little Kennard and Sczerbiak sprinkled in.

Gordo was a much better athlete and bigger... but also not as good of a shooter. I really think like a mix of Bane and Ingles (joe had way more length but still) are some of the comps I like the best. I think there could be some Booker in there but not quite as athletic.

He has enough size that his shooting, processing and motor will make him a contributor. Even if the ceiling is a little lower.

Dont we have a better version of Wolf at home?

Gonna be honest, I value the opinion of people here more than this guy. The members here have put more thought into their opinion. This is just a video of a guy watching highlights of a prospect for the very first time. Most of us our highlight watchers, but it seems like this is the first time he has ever watched Wolf play basketball or looked at his stats.

Yeah having too many 7 footers that can dribble, facilitate and shoot (sorta) is lame AF.

I think so...Wolf has more guard skills, but Flip is more athletic. A lot of the guys I'd consider at 21 are "can he shoot" kind of prospects. That bet hit with Flip. Gf we make another bet on a questionable shooter I'd like a different kind of player. Guys like Sorber, Thiero, Hugo etc. aren't as quirky and unique as Wolf, but I think they are more likely to hit and also for better reward.

It will be on defense. If he was as good as Flip I'd still take him because 21st pick is a crap shoot. I'd likely just gamble on a different guy working out.

Thiero is the guy for me I would absolutely gamble on at 21, for the record.
