Notes from Rafael Barlowe's pod today


-Julian Phillips might go first round, combo of high vert leap and great workouts

- Thinks Bilal Coulibaly is going top 10 (my opinion, this is recency bias. He's still playing and nobody else is). Utah might be the landing spot because they may still grab a PG at 16 (Wallace, Hood-Schifino, Black, Smith, one of them may fall)

-Houston signing Harden potentially doesn't necessarily impact them drafting Amen Thompson.

-#20 is definitely available for trade

-There's a guy unnamed who's projected to go betwen 11-20 who isn't doing anything other than 1 on 0 workouts

-Every player he's spoken to has done a workout with the Celtics even though they only have the #35 picks. They'll be active trying to get in the first round.

-While he doesn't think OKC gave Bilal Coulibaly a promise, they may have given Bobi Klintman one. Again, can't believe he's up for discussion. Indiana might be the other team who gave him a promise, so he's shut down workouts

-Believes Leonard Miller's range is 16-23.

This impresses you?

I been watching scoot play in the G league for two years now. It’s all effortless for him and he’s going to have a long career as a starting PG. His game is very similar to CP3, and he played a lot with another PG in the G-League so I think he and LaMelo can make it work.

Don't waste your time. He's a Bama stan who wants Brandon Miller to get drafted 2nd.
