You got a link? They were always projected late 1st round. Now, Randle was projected a lottery pick last year.


Draft projections change constantly, but yes they were BOTH being projected very high in the 2014 draft when still in high school. They were ranked right where Newman is right now coming out. It shouldn't be unheard of to someone who follows UK basketball the top few high school recruits are constantly projected as lottery picks the following year until they play in college.

Seems to be a yearly thing. Sorry, seems Skal is projected to be the man


Like I said, both great players, Simmons the #1 overall recruit, I'll take it. Once a decade type of player.

Sorry, show me a link that had the Twins as lottery picks coming out of HS.

Actually, you said...

Which at the moment, are not happening...a "once in a lifetime" player would NEVER leave the #1 spot in projections.
