Who is Marcus Howard

[jesmu84]

Oh my god. Why?

[LoudMouth]

Who is Marcus Howard

I think it is spelled Marquiz Howard. That will boost him in the projections

Thanks, nice to see he is getting the recognition, and obviously hope we have him for the whole career.

I will always remember the call from the Bulls asking how I could have Jimmy Butler as the 5th best player in the country his junior year when noone had him on a draft board. We had an incredible run of NBA players - as I've pointed out the last few years we had more NBA players than any of the McGuire years into the 80s, so happy to track the opinions on Markus.

So where did you have JB after his senior year?

Don't watch a ton of NBA ball, but surprised to see Markus ahead of Shamet - he seems like the prototype of a score-first NBA PG.

& Age.

Howard is a full 2 years younger than Shamet.

[Newsdreams]

So where did you have JB Ners after his senior year?

FIFY

I do watch quite a bit of NBA ball ... and I seriously doubt most NBA GMs would choose Markus over Shamet.

And I really, really like Markus, of course, like all of us do.

Shamet is 6-4, quick, has a nice handle, has significant PG experience for a high-achieving program, and plays D.

But yeah, these kinds of lists show exactly why a player like Markus might consider leaving ... or at least get analyzed by pro scouts in the approved settings.
