hope he goes to raptors

I watched him play in Santa Cruz last weekend. He really stands out with his flexibilty to play defense against multiple positions and play out on the perimeter on offense. He has a lot of potential, I'd love to see my Wolves get him.

i need him on the raptors

young man seems very open to growth opportunities.

He will look great in a Bulls uniform.

I know that Knicks Coach Thibs would love to have another lanky guy with a huge wingspan like Tyler Smith, who can be taught Thibs team-defensive system, and also stretch the floor on the offensive end. If the Knicks decide to keep their 3 2024 draft picks (2 First round picks, and 1 second round pick...#24, #35, and #38), this guy will probably be on their list at #24 or #25...unless of course their package the draft picks to move up in the draft or something.

I saw him coming over 🏀🏀🏀🏈

Knicks need a player like him

Agreed, perfect Julius backup

@@DSTRAZ98 - I was more so thinking that he's a great OG Anunoby and/or Julius Randle, and/or MRobinson/Hartenstein back-up. And since he's a young player, with the Knicks player-developement system under Thibs, he can be taught how to play proper team defense (and rebounding etc) under Thibs defensive system. And at 6'11" and able to handle the ball and even playmaking, he's good at stretching the floor at the 3, 4 and the 5. I've seen him on mock drafts going to the Knicks with the #24 or #25 pick. With his skillset and youth (only 19 years old currently), I'm puzzled how come his draft stock has him being projected as a late 1st-round pick.

@@fidel2xl he’s gonna be a lottery pick sadly for our knicks. Most of these early mocks are done by writers who have agents tell them a list to make

@@DSTRAZ98 - One of the factors that might prevent him from being a lottery pick is the fact that he opted to play for the G-League Ignite after high school. And the G-League Ignite has a very poor reputation for draftees who came from that program. NBA teams typically look at G League Ignite with a lot of skepticism now.

Seen him getting mocked to the thunder and I see the vision for sure! But I just wanna know how good his rebounding is? That’s our main issue lol, if he can rebound at decent clip or has the skills to be a good rebounder I’m all for us drafting him

Knicks fan here. That's the thing with rookies, though...under a good coach (or under a good player development system in that NBA team), a young player can be TAUGHT how to play proper team defense, and how to become a good rebounder etc. It's one thing if it was a 10-year NBA veteran. But under a great player development system, these attributes can be coached into the young player.

I don't know if he's Chris Bosh or Sam Perkins?

He reminds me of Jabari Smith

that would be dope if you could do this video session with Da Silva or Kolek.. Imo those are the players with most bball iq in this draft

What is his height. Some websites list him at 6’11, others have him listed at 6’9.
