This COVID-19 situation is making it easier for incoming freshman to say fukk college and go straight to the G-League. Why play college basketball for free this year when it’s likely to get cancelled again the moment the corona comes back in the fall?

Even if the G-League season gets cancelled, you still get your bread and the chance to talk with NBA players/scouts without fear of repercussion or suspension.

Josh Primo, you should know him he's a 5 star. 14 months younger than Cam Thomas and already getting more NBA love. And Givony is the leading draft expert but keep acting like no one knows who any of our recruits are:mjlol:

That don't mean shyt his game doesn't translate to the next levels.

This endorsement shyt is a sign of those slave owning cacs starting to feel the heat.


I just saw some highlights of that Justin Powell kid we are bringing in. I like his game actually. He'll improve a good bit under Bruce and the crew. Might be our JJ Redikk type of player. He's taller than Redikk though. He might get to 6'7" if he keeps growing.

Great off the ball shooter that can do a lil bit of the play making when Sharife out. Can kinda replicate some of Bryce’s value, although idk if we can afford for him to be as streaky, and it’s def unreasonable to expect him to be as good shooting off the dribble (or on D).


But he’s prob our best 2 guard option to complement Sharife. Still praying we can get a 2 guard that can eat in iso ala Samir (not necessarily to those extents)

I think he might end up changing positions if he keeps growing.

I think only elite level kids are offered the G-Leauge training

But prior to this year, only one player has/had actually taken the G-League up on their offer and now you have 3 players who have done so all at the same time. Darius Bazley initially did a while back, but he got spooked and dropped out when he performed terribly against the G-League players.

The COVID-19 situation got these college kids spooked and I don’t really blame them. No reason to play for free this year and have your lone college season. Especially if you’re one and done anyways.

I feel like he’s frame wise a 2, but to me, and idk if it’s proximity speaking, but he’s always reminded me of a Huerter clone. And if he gets a couple inches taller and can rotate between the 2/3, it’ll just further validate that
