Following Potential Draftees - 2019 (not kidding)

Samanic is a PROJECT.

The PF Utah hopes fall to them has gotta be none other than ---- Brandon Clarke.

Clarke is working out for teams in the late lottery. I think a lot of teams have their eye on him. Minnesota thinks he might be a good fit next to Towns.

What would make you think that Louis King isn't gonna kill his workouts tho??

Louis King has a great 'open gym' game.. he's a finesse guy.. could shoot the ball for real years ago.. He was like an 80% FT shooter as a teenager...

Even if he were to fall into the 2nd rd, I don't see why the Nets wouldnt take him 31st..

King worked out for the Pistons today. Detroit has the 15th and 45th pick. Sounds like he's staying in the draft.

Who is driving the Bazely train?

If he's there at 23, I'd have a hard time passing on Samanic. Productive overseas at only 19 with good size, decent athleticism and a good stroke - should be good 6'10 shooter in the league for a long time. Maybe an Ilyasova or Kurucs type.

I was thinking the same thing. I think he can play next to rudy.

Clarke is not falling to our range. His athletic testing and college production will get him drafted around the end of the lottery despite being a center trapped in a PF/SF body and having t-rex arms. He wouldn't fit great next to Gobert anyway

They're going to be tempted by his "Jazz demeanor." He's mature, articulate and laid back. You can tell he went to Stanford for two years. The Jazz are going to factor that in. He also measured really well at 6'9.5", 210 lbs, 7'1.75" wingspan. Also had a 37" max vertical. I've been comparing him to Robert Horry out of Alabama. He can probably be that kind of high-end role player, which would be a solid pick. I just don't see him as a swing-for-the-fence type of player.

But does he have giant hand pads and great balance? We should probably start looking into that for these guys...

I'm on the Bazley train, but it's got bench seats if you want to hop aboard. I think he should be getting looked at along with guys like Kevin Porter Jr., Nas Little and Romeo Langford. He's a mid-first-round talent, imo. I like Bazley, then Horton Tucker, then Kabengele at #23.

What range do folks expect Carsen Edwards to wind up going? I wouldn't mind him at #23 and would absolutely love him any later than that. Can really really shoot it.

Probably late first or early second round. I think 23 is too high for him.

Never know... his age and lack of shooting could end up in him sliding. Every year there are guys who fall down the board... maybe not all the way to #23 but I could see him falling to the late teens early 20s range. I think shooting in an open gym during workouts people may forget why he’s good.

I still like Talen Horton-Tucker and think he can play next to Mitchell, but I'm not sure if he's on the Jazz's radar or not. He sees himself as a big guard. He's 6'4", but with a 7'1.25" wingspan, he has the length of a full-sized PF.

I understand these are just highlights, but it’s still pretty impressive. He looks like a guard version of Rudy on the defensive end.

Thing is, he's only 18 still, and he could still improve his body and athleticism quite a bit. I think he has fringe All Star potential as a big guard or wing. He's making some Paul Pierce-caliber moves in these offensive highlights.
