Following Potential Draftees - 2019 (not kidding)

This draft is weak overall. I think Reddish going be a better pro then RJ. Zion I'm staying mute on. There no one like him and there always injuries. DeJaun Blair was undersized beast and wasn't same after he blew out his knees.
 
I'm having a hard time getting excited about this draft. Outside the top 5 guys, I like Sekou and Deandre Hunter as forwards. I like Garland and Morant as guys who could contribute within a year or two, but I think we're looking at drafting in the early 20s again. I like the potential of Dort and Grimes as big guards who should be able to get where they want to go on the floor, but they're probably gone too. If Nassir Little drops somehow, I'd probably take him. The shooting guard at USC looks good as a 2nd-option scorer, but apparently he's also rising up the draft boards. Samanic is giving me Jerebko vibes. Bol Bol's foot problems and other medical questions could cause him to drop, but I'm not into it. Louis King could be worth taking a flier on, but he needs some physical development to get on the floor.

What we really need is a young, healthy Danilo Gallinari.
Rodion kurucs. But yeah who needs him when we could have the great Grayson Allen?
 
I don't think Kurucs has turned into much so far. He plays a bit for the Nets doesn't he?

24 pts on 5/8 from deep last night. He’s had some good games. I’ve watched him a few times and been impressed.
 
He's shooting his way into the Nets rotation. Definitely a player we wish we could've had at the moment

If he stays healthy, he's like a more athletic version of Dario Saric. His shooting also improved. His handle is a bit clunky though.

Wut?

He's not like Saric imo. He's been the guy they put on the other team's best wing player defensively.

Reddish is completely overwhelmed and overmatched by college basketball. He is absolutely horrendous in nearly every aspect of the game. He should be playing d3- and I'm being completely serious. Give him 2 or 3 years, he might improve, the game might slow down for him. He's long, athletic and has a good stroke. The physical part is there. But for now scrubs are making him look silly. He can barely compete out there.

I watched that Joe Wieskamp yesterday. He actually does look pretty promising. Not sure I agree with him being a surefire NBA player, but he is someone to keep an eye on next year.

Part of that account has a soft spot for the Hawkeyes
