I was in the arena today. He was a man among boys today. Him putting the ball on the floor and taking it to the bucket is a new skill that he is using to devastating effect.

Not even lying, I am starting to feel Johni may be our best pro prospect in years. Maybe better than Jabari and Kessler. Dude is growing into a beast.

Mock drafts still not feeling him, was 50 on the one I just looked at.

I am not sure about his draft stock. I am positive he is the best college player we have had since Barkley.

I don't think I've ever been more wrong about a player. I never thought he would be more than average and couldn't stand his on court demeanor his first year here. Hope he continues to prove me wrong

That seems nuts. When he gets to ball low, no stopping him.

I knew immediately when he clamped down that Castleton kid from UF two years ago, something even Kessler couldn’t do, that we had a mauler.
His offense and sheer basketball IQ is just continued development.

It's tough because he's probably as good as he's going to be which is probably good enough to (approach) 10 and 10 in the NBA. Is he actually 6'10 or just 6'8 without shoes? Teams would rather have a Bum with "potential" than a Polished ready roleplayer like Broome. It's unfortunate.

He was measured at 6'9" at the combine 2 years ago. He's very skilled, but he's not very tall and not a great athlete.
NBA today is awful awful basketball and I'm not sure if he has a spot or not to be honest.
He is an elite college player thought and he's been a lot of fun to watch.
