@statmuse
Luka - Shai - Brunson - Trae
Best draft of the 2010s by far
MVP level players: Luka, Shai
All stars: Brunson (may play his way to the level above), Trae, Jaren
Star role guys: Mikal, MPJ, DDV
Solid starters: Mitch, Ayton, Wendell, Huerter, Grayson, Brucey B
And so many more
@NBA_University
Never could have guessed his next 3 playoff runs would all be derailed by injury. The world deserves another healthy Giannis playoff run.
@big_business_
Of all the stars on be team, Booker has been the one who’s bought in the most to the dirty work.
Fighting over screens, cutting, spacing the floor - he’s been doing it all
@TheDunkCentral
The Knicks have Donte Divincenzo already as their shooting guard who (deep breath):
Averaged more rebounds, more assists, more steals, a higher FG%, higher 3P%, defended his ass off, is 7 years younger and made almost 25% Klay’s salary this year.
😮💨
@BronMuse
Webber was not great as an in-game analyst but he was so good in studio - would like to see him come back and do that.
Peak Inside the NBA was Ernie/Chuck/Kenny/Webber
@GoodmanHoops
@HPbasketball
No superstars, but a very deep pool of potential quality starters.
Unlike most years, that tier of players starts at pick
#1
instead of like
#6
2. Jalen Williams
Shooting by zone:
Rim: 68% (above Sengun)
Mid-Range: 49% (above BI & KD)
3PT: 46% (5th in the NBA)
Leads OKC in 4th Q scoring on 60% FG
6 ast per in his last 10 games
And he defends his ass off.
No holes in his game. Future All-NBA player.
@Kazeem
Certainly not in their second year… an all time great prospect going from an all time great rookie to an all star in year 2 is NOT what MIP is for.
It’s for truly out of the blue breakouts.
@NBA_University
Jalen Williams. Gimme the second scoring option on the
#3
offense in the league who’s also a great defender.
3-level scoring
GREAT passing/creation
Malleable - can fit on any team
Especially in a weaker draft, how the hell is Pacome Dadiet not in everyone's lottery? 6'9" 18 year-olds are not supposed to create shots with such ease. Jumper is clean, easy and consistent on the move. Flashes a dynamic handle, legit vision and defensive tools. All on a small
@NBA_University
Comp'd him to a bigger Manu Ginobili coming out of college because of his scoring/passing creativity. He and Chet should both have a real shot at All-Star berths this year.
His comp now may be closer to... Paul Pierce? Jimmy Butler? He's got such a unique offensive package.
@LegionHoops
Victor Wembanyama has 11 games with 5 or more blocks this season (most in the NBA)
He averages 4 blocks per 36 minutes
Vic has a 5 block game more than once every 4 games
@TheDunkCentral
@wojespn
Knicks needed scoring outside of Brunson and Randle - Burks and Bojan fill that void nicely
The state of New York is about to discover just how little Bojan passes
@UsherNBA
Kobe Bufkin
Showed 3 level scoring and high level defense in college. With Trae or Dejounte likely being traded this summer his path to consistent minutes should be much clearer.
@KevinOConnorNBA
@NBA
Dream first round:
DEN v. PHX
OKC v. LAL
MIN v. NOLA
LAC v. DAL
BOS v. MIA
MIL v. PHI
NYK v. CLE
ORL v. IND (congratulations, YOU get NBATV)
DRAFT SCOUT: Reed Sheppard
Pros: Elite shooting, passing, defensive hands
Cons: Small, doesn’t get to the basket
Favorite comp: Fred Vanvleet

@esidery
@DraftExpress
Would be crazy - he’s got enough talent to go
#1
overall. Reminiscent of Cam Whitmore last year.
Crazy athlete, great defender, good intangibles, solid skill level for a wing outside of the shot.
DRAFT SCOUT: Ron Holland
Pros: Athleticism & physicality, rim pressure, on-ball D
Cons: Discipline, questionable shooting
Fav Comp: Jaylen Brown

@ChrisLongKSTP
Mike is the second most valuable T-Wolf
Unbelievable they got BOTH him and NAW for D’Angelo
(Remains unbelievable the lakers chose DLo instead of Conley)
@The_BBall_Index
Despite his athletic advantages, Ayton is addicted to the in-paint set jumper. Looks like an accidental NBA2K animation but he hits em at a decent clip

@NBA_University
Took half an hour to pick an answer for this one.
Trey
Donte
Naz
Gordon
And if the Nuggets traded Gordon for any of them they would get worse.
Top 5 in points per possession on post ups this season (3+ per game)
1. Jayson Tatum (1.30!)
2. Pascal Siakam (1.17)
3. KAT (1.16)
4. Anthony Davis (1.16)
5. Nikola Jokic (1.12)
Tatum leading this matches the eye test. His post play can be a huge weapon in the playoffs.
The Boston Celtics are 18-0 at home this year - could challenge for the best home record ever set by the 85-86 Celtics (40-1).
BUT, the Celtics don’t hold that record alone. The 15-16 Spurs were 40-1 at home & were 39-0 until losing to the 73 win Warriors. Forgotten great team.
@TheDunkCentral
@AaronJFentress
Jerami Grant is still really really good. He can help a team get over the hump.
Over 20 ppg and 40% from 3 the last 2 years. Should still be a very good defender in a scaled down role.
