15-30, sure. But I’ve seen Knecht as high as 7th in some mocks.
Which prompts the question - Which draft sites are the best? I personally like ESPN best, B/R and the Ringer good. Am I wrong or missing something?Last edited by 3inthekeon; Sun Mar 31, 2024, 07:29 PM.If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

Purdue is tough to play when you don't have a big guy. It's like every college team needed that 7ft stiff to play against Edey like the NBA used to do when Shaq was playing. Ultimately I also don't think Edey will work out in the NBA. I just think he's too robotic. Doesn't have a natural feel to his game. And that methodical play is not going to work so well against skilled players or guys just a big as he is.
I haven't seen much of Clingan play but I hear he looks more natural. Has some pretty good defensive numbers in college too. So would be nice if we get to see the head to head matchup in the finals.
Knecht was really good too.. he looks like a Max Struss type of player though. He's a senior as well. I think he's a safe pick. I wouldn't be surprised if we had a top 6 pick and took him. But I think he's already at his ceiling. And I don't think it's a terrible ceiling. Guys like Struss, Bogdonovic (either one), Huerter, etc are all like $16-20M players in today's NBA.. and have made nice livings as a rotation wing shooter. But if you want upside (ie, all-star caliber).. you won't get that from him IMO.

There are a few guys. The Athletic, Yahoo, CBS Sports also come out with their picks and I end up going to a few of them to get a variety of different opinions.
This site calculates a "consensus" from gathering data from all those various sites and is updated on a regular basis:
