Damn AJ jumping out the gym

 

[Platinum State]

Very close to Andrej Stojakovic numbers which are 32 and 41.5

 

[Arthur Shelby]

This by far the most interesting top US prospect story in years IMO

Been a elite player since 8th / 9th grade

But still idk where this going

 

[HOU$TON]

Sounds like someone faking their standing reach, cause aint no way he's a 40 inch vert athlete.

edit

6-5 barefoot, 6'8 wingspan.,..but only 8-4 standing reach?

Yah he's juking the stats.

 

[B Sox]

You can tell Lil Peja is bouncy just from watching tape.

 

[worldbeefreeg]

I get why he’s going number one, but Dybantsa just doesn’t do it for me. I know why B Sox loves him though, he’s like if you took melded every thing Tatum & Brown into one player.

Trying to work up the courage to put him 5th on my big board. Happy to regret it and think he has the highest floor, but just don’t see the feel/little things in his game that I’d hope for.

Boozer reminds me of a poor man’s Sam Perkins

 

[frshstunna]

Peterson is real smooth, still got him at the top of my board but I understand taking AJ

 

[swendro]

Idk nothing about nothing, and I'm a massive Michigan homer, but Aday Mara is going to be a top 5 player in this draft.

 

[B Sox]

I just wish Peterson would’ve shown that he could somewhat regularly beat average college defenders off the dribble. Makes me incredibly hesitant.

And now says he’s a point guard?

Sorry I don’t know what to think

 

[HOU$TON]

 

[addict4sneakers]

Need my guy to start skipping workouts with back pain.

I got inside info and yeah as of today it doesn’t look like I’ll be picking him up from the airport

 

[pmatic]

That's who's game he reminds me of.

 

[Arthur Shelby]

 

[RustyShackleford]

addict4sneakers how many adoption applications you filing this draft?

 

[Manny Fernandez718]

That's whose game he reminds me of.

I’m not a dame fan, please describe the similarities you see

I’m not a dame fan, please describe the similarities you see

Stature, poise, pull up shooting, scoring binge, pick and roll play, little defensive effort.

 

[Manny Fernandez718]

Thanks

 

[B Sox]

He’s so slow and unathletic!

There’s too many things that AJ doesn’t do to seriously think about moving up for him.

Even if more comical if you’re thinking about doing this in the west. OKC has a 15 man playoff rotation. Spurs play 9-10 dudes.

And you’re gonna trade what amounts to 3-4 guys for 1 player when you’re already not close to contending

Sorry I don’t know what to think

I don't disagree, but the last high level prospect that told us he was a point after playing off ball in college was Curry
