2024 Mock Drafts

[Lennys Tap]

Bucks: Carlton Carrrington - if he is still available.

Some interesting things from Jonathan Givony at ESPN. Oso has dropped to #57 prospect. But I don't think that is an issue. Only certain teams will want him anyway. I think a good comparison might be Kyle Anderson who has had a long NBA career so far.

The NBA doesn't look kindly on traditional low post centers. 6 months ago, Clingan and Edey were both seen as mid-2nd rounders. Givony now has Clingan as #3 prospect and Edey at #16.

Sounds contradictory. Is the NBA then now convinced that Clingan and Edey are not traditional low post centers?

Neither will be drafted due to their low post offense. Both are seen as defensive rim protectors.

Definitely right on Clingan.

I think they will look at Edey Ada little more of a scorer - maybe the 3rd option on a team.

Oso crapped da bed and it will cost him big bucks. Wouldn't be shockin' if he went undrafted, hey?

Good.  Pulling hard for him to fail.

Kyle Anderson from the Wolves?  I don't really see much of a comparison. 

[4everwarriors]

Good.  Pulling hard for him to fail.

You have an aversion to the truth, hey?

[Uncle Rico]

You have an aversion to the truth, hey?

No, I'm not a Trump supporter.  Either way, I'm pulling against Oso

[4everwarriors]

Well, wish upon a star, hey?

[Uncle Rico]

That he doesn't get drafted?  I will.

That interview is so good.

That interview is so good.

Tyler was great. Andy Katz was too.

It is going to be very difficult for Shaka to top what he did with Kolek:

++ Look at an average A-10 shooting guard and envision that he could become a top Big East PG.

++ Successfully recruit him.

++ Build his confidence during and after a sometimes rocky first season at MU.

++ Develop both his talent and leadership to the point where TK became one of the best players in the country.

Exactly why we need transfers!
They have already proven themselves....Shaka cant do it again!

Kyle Anderson, the guy who played point guard in college?

Generally agree, but Kolek was a starter and the freshman of the year in his conference - so already on a pretty good trajectory.

Suns taking a hard look on TyKo. Budenholzer is Suns new coach.

The Ringer's latest has TK all the way up to Miami at #15.
Riley all in on annoying white kids with Wisconsin connections.

Oso not in their draft. Rico rejoices.

That he doesn't get drafted?  I will.

Can't wait for all the "Oso should have stayed another year and developed" posts....

[4everwarriors]

Nah, stunk up the post season, major. Cost himself mucho dinero, aina?

Not really how NBA teams determine who they're going to pay millions of dollars to.

Interesting to see Kolek this high. Pairing him with JFB would be pretty awesome (...if he sticks around in Miami).

Could the Knicks at 25 be a floor? Would feel more confident in saying that if Kolek has a green room invite.

[wadesworld]

KOC is always unreasonably high on college prospects.

[MuggsyB]

I can't see TyKo falling below #22
