As far as TB comparisons go, I think he comes in closer to senior level TB than Fresh/Soph TB. He's also 2 inches taller

I don't think we need a bruiser and solid big just one, preferably a mold of both. Unless it's Ewin getting his waiver. Thomas was #26 in ESPN's new mock 2 days ago. Yahoo #35 second round. Tankathon #33 second round. Still seems all over the place as to whether or not he goes first round. If not he's returning.

NBA combine starts May 11th, final day to withdraw is May 27th.

Skill wise probably, mental side definitely freshman and of course zero experience hurts too.

That's a good sign, but I'm curious if he's following players from other schools as well. He may do this with every team he's interested in.

His frame looks fine to me for his height/age.

I noticed Miikka mentioned one and done a lot in his interviews after he signed. I'm worried he's coming in with unrealistic expectations and is going to end up getting frustrated.

Things are getting ugly in Lexington. Stokes just told them to get lost, and they haven't signed 1 recruit or transfer that's SEC starting caliber. They've been slapping kids in the face with money, but still getting rejected.

Insiders have been saying that some of these kids just flirt with Kentucky because they drive up the price, then these kids choose the other school even if they come in lower.

From the rant

The top basketball recruit in the country just chose Kansas over Kentucky minutes after UK assistant Mo Williams hyped up the impending decision announcement on X.

If I were Thomas I’d get paid, keep my eligibility and show everyone what a lottery pick looks like. I know I’m a homer so I would say that but 29 just feels way too low for him.
