He got a lot of fouls because he's not athletic enough to defend players at this level.

Maybe that’s a reclass from 22?? I mean idk if someone in the portal would wait until the last minute


I doubt its someone from 22, There are still a lot of players in the portal who aren't committed. Seneca Knight would be a good get.

This is purely hypothetical, but if we could get Jaden Bradley (I use him as an example because he seems to be the PG we are after the hardest) to reclassify I think I'd rather go that route than the portal. He's an elite ball handler, but a good not great athlete and a good not great shooter, so I anticipate him being a 2-3 year college player unless he turns himself into a ~40% 3pt shooter. If he does that he's a 1 and done, but I'd be willing to roll the dice on it.

True, but there were rumors that he might reclassify for a while before he did. Haven't heard anything about any of our current 2022 targets doing it, but I guess its possible.

from cbs.sports this morning

quote:

The first NBA Draft Combine held since 2019 did not disappoint as prospects from across the country and around the globe gathered in Chicago last week to showcase themselves in front of NBA decision-makers, scouts and media. While top-five projected picks Cade Cunningham, Evan Mobley and Jalen Suggs were not among the more than six dozen participants at the combine, it was nonetheless a meaningful experience that moved the needle and shook up big boards for teams.

And with just over a month until the draft, it provided a setting for firsthand evaluations in competitive settings -- the last one at that large of scale until the 2021 NBA Draft on July 29.

With the event behind us, let us take one look back in the rearview mirror to reflect on some of the big winners and losers from this year's combine.

Winners: Potential stay-or-go prospects
While the combine is a forum where scouts can get a close look at every player, there was a heightened level of curiosity surrounding two players in particular who have for months been seen as toss-ups regarding their decision to stay in the draft or return to school: Alabama's Josh Primo and West Virginia's Miles McBride.


Primo played 22.4 minutes per game on an Alabama team that won the SEC regular season and postseason titles, flashing potential in spurts with his shooting ability to go with his great positional size. At the combine, he solidified his case as a potential first-rounder should he stay in, as he knocked down shots and looked comfortable playing a more hands-on role as a creator and scorer.

Cincinnati basketball all-conference guard Keith Williams has entered the transfer portal, @on3sports has learned. Averaged a team-best 14.3 points per game last season.


Possibly a name to watch. Looking at his numbers on Kenpom....not very good. So I hope Nate isn’t after him

I’m interested to see who Oats adds now.

from espn today, dropped us 6 spots:

quote:

16. Alabama Crimson Tide
Previous: 10

Alabama probably won't be awaiting the NBA draft withdrawal deadline with any suspense. Joshua Primo played his way into first-round NBA draft consideration at last week's combine, and given his NBA-attractive age -- he was the youngest player in college basketball last season -- Primo is imminently expected to announce he'll remain in the draft. With Primo out of the lineup, I would expect Nate Oats to play a lineup a little bigger than he did last season, with Furman transfer Noah Gurley potentially taking Primo's spot. The 6-foot-8 forward would add some size to the frontcourt, but he certainly can still play in Oats' system; Gurley took 4.5 3-pointers per game, hitting them at a 34% clip. Another option is Keon Ellis, who averaged 5.5 points off the bench last season but was included as a late-second round pick in ESPN's most recent 2022 mock draft.

Projected starting lineup:

Jahvon Quinerly (12.9 PPG, 3.2 APG)
J.D. Davison (No. 13 in ESPN 100)
Jaden Shackelford (14.0 PPG)
Noah Gurley (15.4 PPG at Furman)
Charles Bediako (No. 33 in ESPN 100)
