19 year old freshman ain't supposed to be able to do this. Curry never led the nation in scoring AND assists, and he certainly didn't do it fresh out of high school before he turned 20. There's no historical comparison in the past 25 years for what Young's doing right now; you have to go all the way back to Pete Maravich himself to find a similar phenom that's this skilled and developed putting up these kinda video game numbers at such a young age.

I said it in the other thread but if you're a tanking team looking for a future long term franchise PG there's no excuse not to take this kid unless his legs fall off and his production along with it. Even if it takes a top 3 pick, this level of dominance and talent emerges in a prospect this young only once in a decade or more, and a rebuilding franchise would do well to not pass up on it by trying to play it safe with a more "conventional" top pick.

Breh stop it this kid even said he’s modeling his game after Curry’s...

Curry lead the nation in scoring...

Curry is the blueprint for the new school.. you seeing it with Young..

I still have reservations about how he will transition into the league, but he's been a joy to watch this season.
i'd say the same....but the league is all about pick and roll...and he runs that at an exceptional level not taking into account his range. he'll have to pull a steph like transition with his body to finish at the next level.

My Pops Forever RIP
The tournament just gonna raise his stock even more. He's damn near a top 5 pick right now
Not always.

Of the last 20 #1 overall picks, only Brand, Oden, Anthony Davis, and Towns made the Final Four (Derrick Rose did too, but those games never happened :troll:)

In Rose's and Towns' cases, the tourneys did put them over the top as far as their competition was concerned.

It's not about the elite 8 or final 3. He will be a talking point if he drops 30-40 in the opening round. Most people (causals) don't know who he is. But if he keeps this play up in the tournament it will only help at this point is all I'm saying

He's already passed sexton might pass like.
Right now I have him getting picked 6th
