2026 NBA Draft Thread

Didn’t he not test well at all? Had an awful combine if my memory serves right

 

[B Sox]

Risky move either way but I would have left

Turns 23 at the end of the summer. Will be 24 before the 26-27 season starts.

I guess there's still some dudes that have been getting drafted at that point like Knecht. Just seems really risky. Especially if he's not awesome playing on a bigger collegiate stage this upcoming season.

I think I would have jumped if I were him. But more power to him.

 

[B Sox]

He had a pretty weak vertical jump. Still doesn't seem like that should crush his draft potential though to me.

Happy for my Ross/Michigan boys but I would have gone - like Coward did re: Duke.

Late first, early second getting thinned out.

 

[B Sox]

NIL money too good I guess. Especially if there’s a chance you might fall into the 2nd.

Some guy on r/nba_draft posted a pretty thorough big board/scouting report Google spreadsheet:

I watched this clip and I was like "cool athletic energy big with some skill"

then i did the math and he's only 13 years old.

Allegedly 13

Word to Serge

 

[ill steelo]

The most explosive “13” year old of all time

 

[addict4sneakers]

It’s a terrible strategy cause he’s wasting his athletic prime pretending to be in middle school.

Go get that generational wealth and reclass back into the 2026 draft

Him sitting on the rim that first dunk stamped it for me. Ain’t no way in hell.

I think you're right someone pulled this up. he was registered at 16 for 3X3 tournament.

that makes more sense.

HIM
That looks like a 13 year old kid.

That kid in the videos hit puberty

Couldn't get a promise in the first round.

This is 100% who the Hornets will end up with. Book it.

Hoping somehow VJ is still there though.

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Really was high on Pettiford.

Crazy how much NIL already changed the draft landscape. I would have to assume just by all these borderline guys going back, this might be the weakest late 1st/2nd round in a long time.

Think it almost makes sense for some borderline first round guys to stay in now since so many others have gone back.
