Everything 2023 Draft

[Primer]

Most would be skeptical but some guys are just built like that. Lowry AND zion come to mind. Will have to see if he can stay in shape and more importantly if it translates to the NBA. He's not a guy I can see the Raps picking anyway so no risk to us.

It was/is an issue for both of those guys. Lowry had a rough start to his NBA career, and I don't think Zion has ever gotten in proper shape.

But Lowry went on to have a great career as have other guys that aren't naturally skinny. Just to be clear, these guys aren't in bad shape so much as they are built differently from most basketball players. They can play a full season and still not be skinny.

Barkley was another one that had weight issues in college. And on the more negative side, Jared Sullinger. Question is, what level of athlete is he, can he be explosive with weight. Are his knees okay… how’s his lateral movement (he was a poor defender in college)

[saints91]

The more I hear about Buffon, the more I like. His ability to finish at the rim is around 70%, he’s equally as good with both hands. Mid 80’s FT%, respectable from beyond the arc. Some playmaking skills, although he’s more of a shooting guard.

I think the combine is going to be very important for him. He’s sliding up all the draft boards

hey wjf thanks for practicing.

went back snd watched these guys you mentioned. caleb houstsn is slow in his movements and shot release, also not as athletic as jett. kevin knox is a forward i dont see the comparison they play completely different. leandro is the closes out of the 3 but again i dont think he is very fast.

the point about his work ethic could be valid. but is shooting is better than gary payton jr. at this point and alot of other coming from nba familes so he is putting in work. the spacing bufkin was able to get shows me the jett understands at the very least where to be where not to be.

The guys I looked at as comparisons were based on size and being considered perimeter based guys with similar skill sets.

I think Jett can be a decent pro, I just am hoping for more than what I think he will be with our pick. Taking into consideration 10 decent mock drafts, Jett's average placing is 19.33. I've seen him as high as 16 and as low as 23.

He's younger than a guy like Julian Strawther, but is he any better in the long run? I don't want to reach for Julian at 14 either.

A lot of the guys discussed here are talked about in this pod. Might be worth a listen

Do us all a solid and summarize the points on guys in our range. 43 minute run time is a little long for me.

Did they say anything about Brice? I tried watching the video but man is the host difficult to listen to. Dude really loves the sound of his own voice.

The host sounds like a caricature of an AM radio morning show DJ. Lol.
