    Ayton thinks he's Porzingis or something. He needs to chill with the jumpshots.

    measured 6'2 in shoes at teams USA camp but his tiny 6'2 wings span, and super short standing reach makes play smaller than his 6'2 height would suggest.

    Have always thought of young as a tyus jones caliber NBA prospect, watched his possessions from last night, nothing changed. He's more shifty I'll give him that
    No he doesn't need to chill. Where he's at now, it can only improve. Hell be able to score from anywhere on the floor in 3 years

    @Vincent Van Goat just out of curiosity, what team do you root for? Are they in the running for a top pick?

    I noticed outlook on prospects this year is so different than past years because I know the Sixers are competing for a playoff spot.

    also, this year's prospects seem to be very top heavy, as in Ayton, Luka, Porter and maybe Bagley could have competed for the #1 pick in 2017 and it would not have been a unanimous decision on Fultz.

    Addicts says bamba is the one

    Between all these prospects we are in for a renaissance

    I don't root for any specific team I just like to see flourishing

    It's crazy how there was a bit of a big man drought between the mid/late 2000's until AD was drafted. Now big men are coming back with a vengeance. Fluid, athletic and some with guard skills. It says a lot about the development of these kids at a younger age.

    @addict4sneakers Bamba has freaky length, he should be exceptional defensively. Can't wait to see he, Ayton and Bagley do work this year, we're in a special time

    I’m letting some games pile up before I start making real evaluations. Obviously Doncic is nice. I really like Bamba.

    But yeah Trey Young has poverty level athleticism. Duval reminds me of Elfrid Payton but I’m not married to that comparison

    Too early for scorching hot takes.
