if you can talk yourself into taking lonnie.... man i don't know :hubie:
Lonnie will impress you in workouts and he has the BBIQ but his skills are nowhere near where it needs to be. He could start on his athletic ability, BBIQ and heart along but he's like Pippen out of Central Arkansas. RAW!

Mixed. He is a lottery pick to a team that wants to develop him. For teams that need ready made players, nope.

not even that

who's he a worse prospect than in the lottery? sexton is in freefall and he's a better prospect by far. robert williams. knox. etc

if a team took grayson over him they wouldn't even be wrong for it

Sexton should not be in free fall, he has the most NBA readiness but teams want PGs who can shoot.

Walker to be has better potential than Williams and I think hes better than Knox with similar level of potential

@Poitier, this one just one of the reasons I have Bamba at 2 over Ayton on my big board. I have had them either tied @2 or Ayton over him due to his size but Bamba has more potential to me. Even when I watched the games, I been saying, Bamba offensive potential stands out more than his defensive one.

Watch: NBA draft scouting videos

most impressive ESPN/draftexpress videos i've seen so far for bigs is bamba (length/range is otherworldly and jumper looks dangerous), wings is knox (looked much better handling and finishing at the rim with great length), and guards allen (very explosive, handle looked improved, great footwork, and a quick lethal jumper). most underwhelming video for bigs is robert williams (looked mechanical and slow with very underdeveloped skill/mentality), justin jackson for wings (looks like he put on weight and is slow with weak handle/poor footwork), and for guards zhaire (jumper was going in, but looked very mechanical/rehearsed; same for his handle. and although plays instinctually, i question him between the ears). Hope they put out a lot more vids.

Bamba:


Knox:


Allen:

What y'all worried about offense for? LaVine's gonna score 30 a night and stuff :smugfavre:
nikka u never lied:russ:Lavine was the savior before he hit the court but now the tune is changing:francis:...
He went from lightskin Kobe to Gary Harris, a injured Gary Harris:wow:That switch yo..
He can still be a 3rd/2nd option..Can still avg 30ppg he just gotta chuck his way there:leostare:
