Our schedule is insane off the rip. We could literally end up playing one or two future 1 seeds.

There's not one mock draft I have seen that's came out since the season ended that has him getting drafted this year. It's a reach that he would get drafted, maybe some team would take a chance on him late due to his age but he would be in the G league for a while.

His situation is similar to Kira's, he would have been a late draft pick at best if he had came out after his freshman season and he came back and ended up getting drafted in the top 15 the next year.

Primo is best served to come back another year, he would really be rolling the dice going by entering the draft this year.


right, so primo has no chance of being drafted this year but he has the potential to be a lottery guy next year? do i really need to spell such a blatant contradiction on his potential for this year out for you?
the argument isnt even if primo should stay in the draft. no ones argued that, stop pretending i am.
thats a blatant lie. even the espn one was referenced here so i know you saw it. mocks are irrelevant anyway. you even admitted the one you referenced the other day was way off to you. theyre pure media speculation. most gm's arent telling the media their secrets, let alone giving any prevalence to mocks (except for maybe the knicks). perhaps you should do the same. wiseman for example had many reports on how a ''source'' said the warriors didnt like him, so many big name mocks had him dropping. well that wasnt true. plenty of examples of such things in recent years. none of it matters. only what the gm's/owners/scouts and such are planning is what matters.

I don't think Primo sniffs the first round, but I'm pretty sure Kira just wasn't eligible to be drafted after his freshman year if I remember correctly.

I thought the criteria was either 1 year removed from high school or 19 years old in order to be able to sign an NBA contract.

We had a very unfortunate early entry a few years back re/ Kennedy Winston. The article says "he was expected to go mid first round ..." They are being generous. The folks I was around didn't expect him to be drafted at all. Which is what happened.

Kira was eligible after his freshman season.

He wasn't. I looked it up to double-check. You have to turn 19 in the calendar year of the draft, which made him too young to be drafted in the 2019 draft.

Both are a requirement. OJ Mayo turned 19 before graduation and still wasn't eligible because he wasn't a year removed from high school.

Kennedy Winston was basically Trevor Lacey with a little more grit.

I think Winston was clearly more talented. Not to mention bigger.

Winston was a baller offensively. If I made a list of our top 5 most talented offensive players since 2000, I'm pretty sure he would be on there somewhere.

Do it. He's not on there. Top 10 maybe.


Collin Sexton
Kira Lewis
Jamychal Green
Ronald Steele
Alonzo Gee


Kennedy wasn't better than any of those five of the top of my head.

Alonzo Gee


Winston was absolutely a better college offensive player than Gee was.

Gee, like a lot of Gottfried era guys, become a complete player after he left Tuscaloosa and grinded in the G-League/NBDL for 3-4 years.

You can't really compare him to a PG or a big man, but Jamychal was kind of a petulant child for the first 2 years he was here. Only towards the end did he finally come into his own. And even then he was basically an around the rim player with a little mid range jumper that only developed his senior year.

Kennedy Winston could take over games. By himself. He, like a lot of Gottfried era dudes, could absolutely disappear as well, but he could just take over a half and win the game for you. And he could do it against really good teams, too. Just look at the stat lines from the Elite 8 run.
