Lyles is the pick at 12

[8]

This kid is a focused player. I like him.

Let's see how the shy kid pans out, this leaves Booker's situation in the air, the trade deadline is gonna be interesting. Also we'll have the inevitable comparisons with the other Booker.

Locke says Lyles hit 25 of 40 corner-threes during his workout in SLC.


Wow this is amazing if true...

Somehow, I'd think his abysmal 3pt% in actual games would be more relevant than what he did in a single workout. Just me.

Much better than his season average! But I'm sure he's been working hard on his shot.

The only pick this forum generally liked was Trey Burke. Granted, they used to ban these asshats pretty fast, so...

People were pleased with Exum, Hood, and Gobert also. The Hayward pick was a meltdown.

pls be Lamar Odom without the candy/cocaine/Kardashian addictions

He does have that potential actually.

Well not groundbreaking but it shows he can potentially improve. Decent base to work off of.

This.

You guys think the Jazz will make some moves here?

Yep lets pooh pooh him shooting well in work outs because you don't like the pick, if he was a player you wanted people would be tooting that horn until the brass tarnished.

Example last year the kid from AZ (Aaron Gordon) that the Magic picked and him being able to improve his shooting and showing it in workouts.

That's extreme. A talent like Odom would not be in the draft at that point.

I remember Hood being mixed feelings (which was shocking to me especially with how he fell) there was just as many posts about his poor defense as there was being excited for him.

Nah price would be too steep. I think they're content with Lyles basketball IQ and potential 3 point range.
