All these mocks won't matter since I believe this year's draft will heavily depend on the lottery. Post lottery mocks will make more sense.

Whoever drafts the best player down the line this year should give their entire scouting department raises.

I actually think not having the tourney makes front offices look at things a bit more rationally. Workouts will be much more important.

Scouting reports make him sound kinda like Dario to me.

Seems like Gallinari is a lazy but easy comp.

He doesn't seem like the bucket getter that Gallo is/was.

The first few things I ever seem to read about him is his passing and being a jack of all trades type, which for some reason makes me think of Dario’s draft profile. He’s definitely more athletic than Dario though, you’re 100% right about that.
An athletic, not-thicc version of Boris Diaw? Lol

In my memory Gallo was way more athletic before getting to America.
I think he had a back problem thurned him into a statue.

Back injury with the Knicks, then the ACL tear with the Nuggets.

All these years later and Gallinari is still the prototypical forward that D'Antoni keeps searching for
Thinking about it I can't remember the last Euro slasher that had a successful NBA career

Couple things I thought were interesting...
- KOC has Killian Hayes at #1 on his big board. Not a great athlete, but loves the improvement he's shown in the past year. Says he has some of the moves and footwork we see from Harden.
- Likes Okongwu more than Wiseman. Says he can come in right away and defend. Likens him to Bam. Because of this, says Okongwu doesn't have a basement, whereas Wiseman does because we aren't sure what he can do defensively. Thinks Wiseman could potentially slide a bit and brings up guys like Daniel Theis and Javale McGee to show that you can find cheap bigs that you can plug and play, rather than give top 5 money to one that projects to do the same. Mentions that it would have to be an Embiid/Jokic level talent in order for him to consider a big that high. He does note that Wiseman has a higher potential ceiling though if he could become a legit perimeter threat.

2020 NBA Draft: The unconventional top 5 in a very unconventional year
Here's why Killian Hayes, Obi Toppin and Tyrese Haliburton and two others could be the best players in a very, very uncertain draft.

Can’t wait for 2021. Really high on Shareef Cooper. I feel like he’s going to be the next, franchise PG.

I really want Tyrese Maxey to fall to a point where the Celts can reasonably trade up for him. Don't see him falling out of the lotto. I think he's a better shooter and playmaker than his numbers at UK show. Has some dog in him. Think he could run point in Brad's system since it really doesn't require a ball dominant point guard anyways. In the few games I watched him, he looked like he had the same kind of "IT Factor" that I thought De'Aaron Fox had at UK. Obviously not the player Fox is, but it seemed like his teammates all loved him, and he actually gave a **** out there.

Y’all think Quickley should bounce? I would, if I was him.

I truly don’t get this with the both NFL and now the NBA Draft. Why can you not at least have just a head coach and a prospect in the same room as long as their 6 feet away? Have each prospect and trainer that’ll get rebounds for them and put them through drills all get tested before workouts.
