So the Lakers shouldn't take Isaac after all. Glad to see I was correct.

Thats the thing with this draft. very few sure things other than fultz but a lot of prospects that if certain things go right many could be all stars.

The Knicks will draft Ntilikina regardless solely for the fact that he projects to best play the triangle.
I personally project him to be the bust of the draft.
The big flaw in Frank's game is that he struggles getting to the rim. He's only 18 so he has plenty of time to improve on that.
Phil drafted Porzingis & Jerian Grant who aren't 'triangle players' tho. I like pretty much all of the projected lottery picks so we'd have to pick someone outta left field for me to be mad.

At #2, absolutely not. The Lakers will be in a position to draft a potential star/ go to guy.

What worries me is that he struggles against lesser talent. Imagine how much he will struggle in the NBA. I've only seen highlights of his play and the one thing I keep getting out of it is that he is doing this against low-level competition. I think whomever drafts him will have to be patient because it will be a big jump to the NBA. Especially for a PG.

What's everyone's take on Semi Ojeleye from SMU? Draft express has him going to the Lakers with their Houston pick. Puts up good numbers as the leading scorer for SMU. NBA ready body and from his stats looks like he can shoot the three (43% on 5 attempts). Haven't heard his name mentioned at all until I saw his stats pop up during the conference tournaments

I'd probably want a higher upside pick since it took him until he was 22 to show dominant play. He's been really good for SMU this year though

Semi been around forever, he's good but you should be when you're 22 in the NCAA.

This is spot-on. He has all the intangibles that Ingram lacks.

Both could have long careers in Europe.

No reason why Hart can't have a Courtney Lee-like career.

I see Hart being a 10 year player way before Hayes but even still, Hart was getting killed playing against NBA talent last year during the draft process at age 21.

He'd be a nice fit on Phoenix. Him and book could be the modern day ray/rashard

Jackson vs Bridges is going to be a fun watch today.

Two of the best wing prospects from an athletic standpoint in quite some time.
