This kid does not look like a top 10 prospect to me based on this highlight real. Man, his handle is super awkward looking.

He's got a super low release on his shot too, and he kinda leans forward instead of going straight up. Good passer though

Giddey is 6'9" and lead a solid pro league in assists as an 18 year old. He was racking up triple doubles at the end of the year despite playing against adults in a super physical league and weighing like 180 pounds. He's a good prospect.

He's a white point guard with a questionable shot. At a minimum, he projects to be a solid assistant coach and could even make head coach if he plays his cards right with the owners.

I think if nothing else 6'9" with elite feel and passing gives you a pretty high floor to go along with the obvious upside if the shot comes along.

yeah at a minimum it feels like he can socket into being a rotation guy running a second unit even if his shot stays busted. haven't watched tape on him, beyond compilations on YouTube so take my comment with a grain of salt

He fills a theoretically valuable archetype and looks like someone who should be good but mostly has not played up to it. His overall skill level is like 10-20% lower than it was generally getting hyped at and in game he's a very good but not elite athlete. The guy he reminds me of is Harrison Barnes which isn't bad as an outcome but I probably wouldn't take him with their first pick given who is likely to be on the board. There's definitely a world where he's a star or close to it but there's at least as good a chance that he's more like Stanley Johnson MourningView fucked around with this message at 00:00 on Jul 30, 2021 |

"Harrison Barnes" level is fine for a regular 7th overall but would be a bit of a disappointment this year.

Hornets next year: Ball / Rozier / Hayward / PJ Washington / Plumlee Graham / Bouknight / McDaniels / Bridges / Kai Jones Third PG / JT Thor / Cody Martin / Vernon Carey / Biyombo (or whoever) Scottie Lewis and someone else on two-ways. It’s possible they cut McDaniels and bring in a veteran wing but I hope they don’t. Love this roster, really versatile and the right mix of steady hands and insane raw freak upside

I think Houston might have won the draft. Big fan of garuba and sengun. Charlotte did great as well. Jones is gonna be awesome. And Thor! I think they might have everything they need now. Just water it and let it grow. ButtWolf fucked around with this message at 18:26 on Jul 30, 2021 |

gwickliffe@mlive.com The Emoni Bates sweepstakes took a major leap forward on Wednesday. The top high school basketball prospect in the country for the 2022 class reportedly will reclassify to the 2021 class and will choose to play for one of three college teams or the NBA G League, according to Stadium basketball analyst Jeff Goodman. Bates released his final four options for his future Wednesday afternoon via his Instagram, which included Michigan State, Oregon and Memphis, in addition to the NBA’s development league Second time he has re-classified

I don't think he's reclassified twice? MSU fans have just been writing message board fanfic about it for a long time. He won't be eligible for the next draft though, he misses the age cut by less than a month. I would be shocked if he doesn't go with Ignite but it's possible NIL changed things for him.
