The Kings will be so pleased with Keegans season that you will be tempted to draft his twin brother Kris in 2023. He is expected to take a huge leap this season and effectively run the offense. He is a lefty shooter, a willing passer and carries the Murray professionalism and hard work ethic. Pairing the Murray twins would be ideal for the Kings
Scoot Henderson will be quite the consolation prize. I interviewed Jason Hart, GL Ignite Head Coach, prior to the draft and asked about Scoot

Scoota Henderson is one of those guys who was going to be extremely good if he remained 6'2" but then he grew another 2 inches and its just unfairScoot Henderson will be quite the consolation prize. I interviewed Jason Hart, GL Ignite Head Coach, prior to the draft and asked about Scoot

Are any of the other guys on that team NBA talent because it was really hard to tell they all played well and the competition was pretty pathetic imo I have never seen a weaker FIba Americas comp even Canada was horrible and recently they have been above average in these comps. Strictly from a athletic point of view he reminds me of Alonzo Gee obviously he's much more talented.
post in another thread reminded me to leave this here. (check this out if u wanna see some crazy dunks)
For this upcoming draft along with Whitmore, there was Anthony Black who was the 6'7" PG with a huge head of hair running the show, Black will be at Arkansas with 2 other players trying to go 1-and-done and high in the lotto with Nick Smith and 6'7" long-armed and very active F Jordan Walsh.Are any of the other guys on that team NBA talent because it was really hard to tell they all played well and the competition was pretty pathetic imo I have never seen a weaker FIba Americas comp even Canada was horrible and recently they have been above average in these comps.

Victor Wembanyama, the top prospect in the world outside the NBA and the likely No. 1 pick in 2023, has opted out of his contract with ASVEL and is signing a two-year deal with Boulogne-Levallois Metropolitans 92, a source told ESPN. NEWS: https://t.co/ZkmbEMki76

I would not call him a shooter at all at the moment, he looks good from mid range at times and he's got that Devin Booker confidence (imo probably his biggest strength atm is his confidence/ cocky nature he acts like he's the best player on court). He's absolutely slaughtered his age group comps at all levels and he plays like a grown man in terms of taking/giving contact (very rare for Serbian guard/forwards). He got limited minutes in the ABA and was just meh but you can see that he understands the game has excellent size if he can improve his jump shot he's going to be imo better than Jovic. Solid athlete/solid handles/good build and tough. This coming ABA season will really show if he's a top 10 pick type or teens to 20's he's for sure a future NBA barring injury. Atm his NBA comp would be really poor man's Booker (can't really think of a comparison atm for him maybe Gordan Hayward more than Booker)he will never be an elite scorer but does everything other than 3 point shooting well. The confidence/being secure/un-afriad in his own ability is his most intriguing quality (not in a dumb taking bad shots kind of way) which is often overlooked and allows guys to exceed expectations.@serbiangoat before I take my leave from the forum til next offseason I gotta ask the opinion on - Nikola Durišić
6'8" shooter I just saw a highlight mix or 2 on. Seen his name projected in too-early-mocks at the end of the first and that Eurohopes has him as the #5 2004-born prospect behind Wembanyama, Juan Nunez, Buzelis and Baba Miller.
interesting.. sounds a bit like another player who looks headed for the 1st rd in 6'8 Brandon Miller going to Alabama.I would not call him a shooter at all at the moment, he looks good from mid range at times and he's got that Devin Booker confidence (imo probably his biggest strength atm is his confidence/ cocky nature he acts like he's the best player on court).

Nick Smith as of right now, is my target numero uno for this team. A shooter and creator for himself like that would fit so nicely with Fox, Murray and Sabo
Exactly! The pick protections has locked up most of our trade opportunities. Better to get it over with as soon as possible.I think I would have preferred for the kings to trade the ‘23 with top 12 protection for Red Velvet. Just get it over with and hopefully have the ability to trade ‘25 is the right deal
