Following Potential Draftees - 2019 (not kidding)

Dean Wade of K State pay attention too. Possible early 2nd late first pick depending how he plays this year. He screams Jazz player. For one let's get the obvious out the window he is white. His game is made for Jazz since he been playing Under Bruce Weber who teaches his players to move without the ball and good passing. He a stretch 4 . Better athlete then he is given credit for.

Dean Wade has one of the prettiest shooting strokes in CBB. K-state has a couple other 2nd round prospects. Barry Brown and Xavier Sneed. And Mawien could be a darkhorse if he takes a leap.

I mean, he's not going to have low dribble crazy Kyrie Irving dribble combos, but he is huge, can get low, and explode out of moves. These last two clips show dribbling, passing, and change of direction.

Freaky how much he mirrors Lebron in that clip.

 

[str8line]

He’s 6’7”, 285.

There are thousands of players at his height with a better handle.

Wes, with all due respect, you crazy. This dude is going to be a phenom regardless of any perceived weaknesses.

O Zion! dear Zion! land of the free,
Now my own mountain home, unto us please come;
All my fond hopes are centered in thee.

Let us kneel down...

Zion looks awesome, but it is absolutely crazy to compare anybody to LeBron James. Yes, Zion is agile and can do stuff as a bigger guy. But LeBron was the fastest end to end player in the league for over a decade. Literally LBJ does everything. Outside of 3 point shooting, LeBron was a top 5 player in pretty much every other attribute. We won't ever see a LeBron again.

at :13 and 2:25 respectively.

That block at 2:28... did he palm the ball right out of that dude's hands? That was nasty.

Yeah it's hype, but some good basketball minds see the comparison too. He has Lebron-like athleticism. And he is pretty damn fast. And he jumps higher than Lebron. And he's bigger. He's Charles Barkley-freaky, only bigger.

 

[LoPo]

Barkley is a fair comparison. He was an absolute freak athletically. Zion will never control the game like LeBron.

It's fair to compare Zion to Lebron. Comparisons don't mean they are the exact same quality of player, it just means they have comparable traits.

Barkley was a short fat ***. Zion is as closely built to Lebron James as anyone ever.

 

[LoPo]

I hate name calling, but damn you are an idiot Cy. Nobody is LeBron especially after 1 college game.

Barkley was 6'6" 255 in his prime. He was an athletic beast. Zion is a little taller and a little heavier, but they will be more similar than LeBron and Zion.

I will show videos later.

I just hope he tightens up a bit... rather than going the Shaq route. I was prepared to be disappointed by him and was just wowed. It's only crazy to compare guys to great until it turns out they are great.

They are both so explosive and smooth at sizes that should not be able to move like that.
