The SI staff writer who was given the report that Justin Lewis was staying in the draft, moved Justin Lewis up in his mock draft. 

NBA media is just propaganda. I love it.

Not sure it is. He got the info on Justin, which may indicate he knows which teams worked Justin out (like #32) and are seriously interested.

My point was Jeremy Woo was the person who broke the news whether it be for Justin, or Roc Nation.

I want Justin taken as high as possible. I would just take this specific Big board with a grain of salt.

He's likely closer to the middle of the second than he is the first round.

It would not surprise me if a team that has a late 1st traded down to the 35 range to get him.

The Heat like Marquette players.

Correction: *LOVE* Marquette players.

Marquette players are directly responsible for all 6 of their NBA Finals Appearances and all 3 of their NBA Finals wins.

The Athletic consulted NBA coaches, team execs and college coaches to rate the top forwards available for the draft. Lewis wasn't on the main list, but he was among those listed under "Best of the Rest":

NC State’s Dereon Seabron; Colorado State’s David Roddy; Ignite’s Michael Foster; Marquette’s Justin Lewis; Memphis’ Josh Minott and Connecticut’s Tyrese Martin.

Here's what a college assistant coach whose team played Marquette had to say about JL:

Absolute nightmare for us. … He was a nightmare. He was. He kicked our ass every time we played him. He’s tough, he’s 6-7. And this year, he improved his perimeter game. His freshman year he was mostly playing inside. Then he expanded his game, he started making 3s, he can go off the bounce, he’s explosive. He’s got long arms. I don’t know anything about his DNA, work ethic, what kind of kid is he? I don’t know any of that. But as a player, he’s a pretty talented kid. In today’s game, watching the NBA, yeah, he’s pretty good. Like him a lot. He was physical (defensively), he moved his feet. They played him at the four, so it’s not like he was guarding athletic wing guys or anything like that. But he tried. He competes.

I believe Justin (1)scores high on Potential which the NBA Values and because (2) he is a proven performer at a high level , he is a very safe choice for many teams.

It's interesting that this coach called him 'explosive' - since most here have questioned that. He reminds me of an old Buck in that way - Marques Johnson. He was so smooth that he never looked 'explosive', either.

I guess it depends on how one defines it.

There were a few times last season that Lewis exploded to the hoop and threw one down and it was like, "Holy sh!t, did that really happen?!?!?!"

But he wasn't usually the kind of guy who could face up to his defender and then just explode past him. There aren't many like that, though.

If you think I’m trusting NBA people or Scoop, I’ll take Scoop every time.  Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Justin, aina?
