Anyone else thinks Doncic is gonna be a bust?


I am not high on him, but if they're going to gamble on a potential super star. I guess it would be him lol

I made some comments about him being too slow and didn't think his game would translate to the NBA, but the more I watch the more I like his game.

I think he's a lock for #1 if the Suns get the pick. His former coach (Kokoskov) now coaches the Suns.

Thing that worries me about Jackson is he only played 21 minutes a game in college and was always in foul trouble.

I think the wild card in the top 5 is Bamba, If he can develop an offensive game I think he might be the best player in the draft.

nah, imo doncic has the highest floor. he is gonna be a good player, question remains if he is gonna be great. don't think he has the highest ceiling nor will be the best player of this draft class. but surely the "safest" pick from the top 5.

the highest risk/reward guy is porter and maybe young. porter looked like a durant starter kit in high school. the back injury, combined with how porter played in limited time when he came back from that injury, has really made agents guess what he’ll be from here on. young seems like a boom or bust pick too.

not athletic enough

I am torn between who I like better between Jackson and Bagley.

dont be surprised if they draft bamba over bagley or jjj. high character guy, good head, hard worker. certainly looks like someone that rick might like to work with.

but depends where they pick. not sure i would draft bamba at #3. at #5 or #6 sure. wouldn't be surprised if aigne trying to get into the draft with a trade ^_^

Doncic by far the best player+prospect in the draft, in terms of floor, ceiling, and expectation. Any team that passes on him should be laughed at.
