Probably some agent smoke blowing there to some degree..will have to wait and see i suppose. Article/source didnt clarify exactly from what point that weight was added. I guess its implied since combine but thats highly unlikely. could be from a random playing weight in college or some shyt

And maybe he is eating HGH for breakfast :manny:

he did play football in high-school so its not like bulking up is exceedingly foreign to him.

Can't take Adam Zagoria serious, he basically runs with whatever agents/player camps tell him, one of the worst bloggers out there.

I've never heard of a legit 7 footer having over a 40 inch vertical, and adding 22 pounds of muscle since college basketball ended? Those numbers are hard to believe, but if true, and if he's really showing out at these combines like people are saying he is, I'd feel very comfortable with Phil picking him at 4. Were WCS other measurables posted, like his standing vert and reach?

WCS isn't a legit 7 footer, he's 6'11.25" without shoes, close but not quite. The highest vert for a 7 footer (without shoes) belongs to Shaq at 36" (303lbs :wow: )

Highest vertical for a guy over 6'10" belongs to Miles Plumlee at 40.5"


WCS is athletic though, no denying it, no chance he has a 42" vert though .

whose going to b the dely of this draft?

Norman Powel is my late 1st rd sleeper he has that pure athletic ability that I think will be helpful to some of the better teams immediately as a perimeter defender until his offensive game comes around. And most of the late first rd teams are winning teams and cultures (except Nets) so he could be a good fit in multiple places.

cliff Alexander is a guy who likely will need to go to a team that can groom him behind better players and will be able to produce in a few years...A team like Boston or Washington could give him a look with picks 15/19 in the 2nd rd..

As far as undrafted guys I'm going to go against the common grain and say that I don't think Robert Upshaw will be selected in the draft but if he's able to kick his habit we will be looking back at him as one of the steals of the draft..,In light of the Larry Sanders bs teams aren't sure this dude is dedicated enough to end his dealings with Narcotics...He will require a lot of supervision and at this point in time it may not be worth it until he cleans himself up.

So Mundiay didn't want to visit Sacramento , huh ? :camby:


Now there's more and more coming out that Rondo actually wants to be a King now. :what: shyt sounds like the chick that never gave a good dude the time of day when she was hot , only to finally come around after being ran through with high mileage and when no one else is checking for her :heh:

Kings stay looking for players in positions they don't need help in :francis:

If Collison, Gay, Cousins and McLemore stay healthy and the kings could get some decent min at PF (Derrick Williams :shaq2: come on breh, talent is still there)
I think they can be a sleeper team.

Same thing with the Jazz, especially if they can flip Burke and 12 into Jrue.
Gobert
Favors
Hayward
Hood
Holiday

Exum and Burks off the bench
