Scoot looks worse than Stephen Castle, Tyler Kolek and Rob Dillingham and all of them are rookies in what’s known as a mediocre draft.

This will go down as another year where experts shyt on the draft class and multiple guys will play well and contribute quickly.

@CrimsonTider won the war

Obviously he’s still young but I don’t think there’s a single thing I can even say Scoot is good at. Can’t shoot, defense & playmaking nothing special, turnover prone, his athleticism seems like it was overhyped heading into the draft

awful. i knew not being at summer league was bad, but between this mess and being high as fukk on media day he's looking like he just doesn't work on shyt.

which is crazy because half his sell during the draft was his professionalism

most of that commentary was about a lack of franchise guys. which is still likely true. you aren't building around anyone from 2024's class.

last year was wemby, then scoot/miller, then everyone else. this draft is basically the everyone else.

I’ve never seen a player everyone was so sure about have so many flaws

I mean the 2000 draft is universally considered the worst draft in modern history and it still produced multiple all-stars and several players with 10+ year careers

There was always gonna be good players in this draft, no question. It was and is considered weak in the sense of not having guys at the top with franchise altering potential. Risacher has looked really good in preseason, but right now how confident are you that 5-10 from years now he'll be an All-NBA player leading the Hawks on deep playoff runs? Now, ask yourself how you felt about the same question regarding Wemby last year or Cooper Flagg right now?
