dude finally came out? I remember he was a top prospect going into either his freshman or soph year.
Yeah he tried to come out a couple years back when he wa at Kansas but had a bad combine and transferred to Hosuton and let Ralph Sampson coach him up.


I was torn between him and Tre Mann but one thing that really bothers me about Mann that I’d not think will translate in the pros as it did at the collegiate level is he has no lift on his shot. I like high lift. High release in my guards. Like Armoni Brooks. Especially in a league where the guards at getting taller and we have a lot more positionless players.

had him at 33 to Orlando before this

If he just develops a reliable 3 pt shot he will be a lottery pick. 6’9 with handle and drives like a guard. If he actually looks like he can shoot some midrange/post he could go top 5.

The lack of shooting probably had him mostly seen as a second rounder. Without any shooting his ability to drive looks cool but would be limited in game.
