Following Potential 2025 Draftees

I looked at the Ringers Big Board.

They had Hugo at 6'6 205.

So in the last year he's grown an inch and put on 20lbs and still looks as athletic as ever.

I feel like around 15-25 is unusually strong in this draft.

There are going to be A LOT of dudes that beat projections from this draft.

no question about it. i'm a fan of Kas. just has a different, and honestly pretty unique skillset.

Being able to sling live dribble passes with either hand, get to the paint, get to the line, and be a skilled step back shooter is not common. He might have the best skillset of anyone in this draft of being a legit offensive hub.

for what it's worth, i agree with you here. if Kas is successful, i think they will have play a similar role - i'm just saying it will take a lot of improvement as a shooter to reach podz's level- though as Naos pointed out, he's such a great passer, he probably doesn't ever NEED to reach that level as a shooter.

Also worth noting that Podz draft year was as a sophomore at Santa Clara and couldn’t get off the bench as a freshman for the same team that Kas was leading as a freshman and had hype as top-3 before injury.

Givony said Kas is the guy being slept on a little. On a pod with Nate Duncan.

He read my post.

Beringer just landed in the lotto.

Let’s just remember that Gobert fell to 27th in one of the worst drafts in recent memory.

Because he's white? Both are rim protecting shooters who have massive Wingspans, very athletic for their size, aren't great rebounders and can play the 4/5.

No he’s more of a playmaker and passer. Their offense is different. To me their athleticism isn’t the same. Jackson is explosive Chet is fast and coordinated and does a lot more with the ball in hand. More mid range and stays outside a lot more.

You said comp, not exact replica

I feel like the only reason you comped him was because of the conversation topic but let’s be honest if not for the topic you never would’ve made that comp and no I don’t see them as similar. If that were the case you could’ve comped him to Rasheed Wallace

Let’s just remember that Gobert fell to 27th in one of the worst drafts in recent memory.

Gobert was a very strange prospect, I don't understand how he was so physically and athletically underdeveloped despite being the age of a guy in his Junior season. He got absolutely bullied in France and was just terrible at rebounding.

Then, he put on 25 pounds and got way more athletic and the rest was history.

This was the hope for Cody Williams too, but it's not going so well so far.
