I don't see him getting into the first round. He would really have to have one team that just loved him a ton

And then jump and land on someone shooting a 3 and wonder why a foul was called...or was that a different KU player?

It was him

Based on what? I saw the opposite stuff yesterday.
Mason had 8 points, 4 assists, no turnovers, and was noted for playing great defense on Monte. He also measured better than perhaps expected, at 6'0" with shoes, over a 6'3" wingspan, and more than 40" vertical. Also a +8 on a team that lost by 18. This isn't a Morris vs Mason post, but they are likely competing for the same spots. A few weeks ago I didn't see Mason going before Morris, but he's moving up imo.

The thing hurting him is that this is a PG heavy draft. Hopefully he can slip in the end of the first round.

But the thing helping him is he is unlike the other PG's worth taking in the draft, style-of-play wise. And there are certainly teams who value a pass-first PG. He will have to be a role-playing PG for the foreseeable future in the NBA, and has to buy into that right away to land on a team. And I think Monte is smart enough to realize that.

Jok measured at 6'4 with a higher body fat % than Niang had last year.

Wait, didn't he used to be a 6' 7" point guard?

They have so many they start to run together.

I'd love him on the Spurs. But I also said that about Niang last year.

Pop is just the man. I heard last night they only have 2 first rounders on their roster? 4 2nd rounders and 4 undrafted. Something along those lines.

I heard them talking about that. I think it was 4 lottery picks. Their sustained success is phenomenal. I'd take any Cyclone in that organization.

I love how it's always the Spurs who get brought up for every one of our players. Funny stuff.

Its because we want them to go to the Spurs. Why wouldn't we want Cyclone players to be coached by the best coach in the league?

In this case, the Spurs might make some sense. Parker is old. Who else do they have besides Patty Mills?
