Following Potential 2026 Draftees

If Tounde works well I think its like Dillon Brooks with some bounce?
 
No, you did Tounde to Stackhouse, who once averaged 30 PPG in a season. That's the one up. You went from pretty dumb with the Cody/Sprewell to FUBAR with Tounde/Stackhouse.

Stackhouse was normally a 16-20ppg guy. His career 3pt% is 31%. His college numbers are also comparable to Tounde so far and Tounde is trending in the right direction with improved shooting.

Stackhouse did have one year in Detroit at the peak of his career where he avgd 29 pts, but he never shot better than 42% from the field or 35% from 3pt.

Stackhouse as a physical comp and role model make sense, as does his scoring efficiency. Tounde is capable of averaging 18-20ppg in the league, imo.

I was thinking Dort, but we're kind of at the same place anyways. Seems like a great defensive prospect who will need to find a way to survive on offense.

I expected his shooting to be suspect and honestly the 80% FT shooting shows some hope. But I thought he'd be better at getting to the basket. Low rim rate and FTr.

I talk a lot about guys scaling up into a bigger role in the NBA, but Tounde is going to need to go the other direction.

Not sure he is as good as Dort or will be allowed to commit felonies on the court like Dort... or I'd go that route. Think he has more juice offensively than Dort (if he works out).

I wanted to love him to start the season but nah. I like him though.

He’s a better driver and finisher than Brooks, imo.

You can’t compare Tounde to Ant, Jaylen Brown or Jalen Williams, but he should be the next tier below that.

He’s another guy who should look better in the NBA than college.

Another blurry comp would be Stephon Castle minus the playmaking. (Although the playmaking might be half the appeal of Castle.)

How is he trending when he layed an egg vs TCU?
 
Tounde is a year old for a Freshman prospect and he's yet to have a good game vs an opponent of decent strength. Call him a safe pick at 10 is wild. He wouldn't even be the 10th pick in the Cody Williams draft
