I’m surprised Sam Hauser isn’t on there

Any one know why Christian Anderson is not on some mock drafts? I thought he would worth a look if we get a late teens or 20ish FRP

Vecenie has him 20th on his big board. I’ve heard a few draft geeks speculate he will stay in school for another year because of the NIL unless he is picked high enough

Watching Peterson. He has good size and can get to the basket. His passing doesn’t wow me. Maybe he is having a bad game, but man Dybantsa looks like a star. He can pass, score, and has crazy length. I’m hoping we get one of them but wow I really hope AJ falls our way.

Scouts are saying he’s not healthy and doesn’t look as athletic as before and he’s still scoring at will

Maybe but if you have the #1 pick you probably have to look at the health. Poor guy. He should just sit until he is fully healed.

He’s till playing I wouldn’t be too worried Kyrie played like 10 games at duke id probably still take AJ one however

Huge drop off from AJ,Darryn,Cam to Caleb Wilson.

Serious atheleticism.

Anything outside of top 4 and this season is a TOTAL waste. Sure... top 3 please but still.

Yes, this was an easy dunk but I think he showed some poise here. He moved well without the ball and didn’t try to force his own offense. He read the defense and acted accordingly.
Maybe not a superstar player who can get his own shot at will, but still impressive nonetheless.

They dont even run plays for him in crunch time. The ball doesn’t even go through him most of the time. Maybe a future role player but a big drop off from the top 3. Imo.

There's tier breaks, but I think I really like the top 9ish of this class to be a very impactful player
AJ
Peterson
Booz
Wilson
Flemmings
Koa
Mikel
Quaintance
Ament
It's just the self-creation compared to the top 3 in this class. That's the only thing keeping me from grouping him with them. You see it in a few of the clips in the video; he's just not a natural scorer/playmaker with the ball in his hands. Certainly not at the level of the top 3 guys.
Would not be sad at all if he ends up on the Kings. I just don't think I'd take him ahead of AJ/Peterson/Booz

Not a big fan of Ament from what I've seen so far. Koa looks solid. Maybe a Big Nasty type. Squint hard enough and perhaps a little Paul Pierce if he develops. Still not hearing much about Trey McKenney. He's been a backup but he has had some big games recently maybe he was always intending on staying there for a few years or something.
Well, we did trade our 3 good starting PGs and won't give the other lotto pick a chance to be that guy so we kinda need one.
Clearly he’s just like Bagley! /s

This is why I hope the bulls connection with Sabonis is real their pick should be 10-14 and we could grab a pg to go with a top five pick

Bulls don’t have their own pick this year unless it’s 1-8
