Zion Williamson in the air is pure art. Hope his playing style doesn't get him injured. He looks more durable than Lavine.

I love that all the top prospects are playing for the same NCAA team. Smart move. If they force them to go through 1 year of college it only makes sense for them to decide to play with future colleagues and with an NBA sort of style. Plus, it is a lot easier to scout this way, LOL.

I like the top of this draft better than the top of last year’s draft, but this year’s class isn’t as deep

Hopefully Zion stays healthy and lands in a team that uses him well. He could have problems against smaller but faster NBA wings who take out the drives. Not sure if he has the post game to punish them down low.
Barret looks smooth af. Haven't seen much of him, but I get a KD vibes from those highlights.

I really hope that the Duke three are all legit perennial all-stars and become the new banana boat crew.
For real though, I could make arguments to draft any of these guys first, the first three picks of this draft will be really interesting to watch unfold--hope I get no.1 REALLY badly

Sports center is already showing the "Next 8 games" and "chances of remaining undefeated". Yeah, Kentucky is probably pretty good, and they smashed them in September or whenever it was. They may want to pump the brakes a little?

nbadraft.net already got Hachimura at 5. Interesting. Then again, nbadraft is not as relevant these days.

Not sure there is one right now. I still got nbadraft.net up there but I feel like they don't update it as much as they used to. They still got the questionable NBA comparisons though, lol. Not so long ago, draftexpress was number 1 but it is pretty much dead now.
Thing is you got more information available now but less draft dedicated sites. Or maybe it is just me being outdated, LOLOL.

The Stepien is the DX successor site with the guys who weren't swallowed by ESPN, plus some new ones. It's pretty good. Though I don't think they've updated their rankings recently.

Was hoping I would be the only guy using them as a scouting tool, haha. Their podcasts are great too. Definitely reccommend their content.

Big fan of RJ. I think he's the prototype for a modern NBA forward, he'd blossom in the middle of almost any NBA lineup. IRL I hope he ends up on the Suns or Hawks, those would be some fun teams to watch.

I know there are very low odds for teams to land #1 or #2 (like really really low) but I have a feeling Zion will land with the Knicks. And that's how the conspiracy theories begin, LOLOL.

I swear I didn't know Duke was playing at the Madison Square Garden but it seems like Zion is all in with the idea of being a Knick based on the things he answered to the media and apparently the media has that same feeling I do, lol.

According to Scottie Pippen, Zion should sit for the rest of the season just in case, LOL. if zion broke his leg right now would you still take him 1.1 Of course not, ha. Especially the way Zion plays.

If Zion breaks his leg, RJ would probably go 1. But he would probably only fall to 2 if that were to happen.

I would take him 1, no doubt. Broken legs (without ligament damage) aren't too hard to recover from

No. You don't understand. If Knicks land Zion, he is coming back to form the big 4.
