Shocker

Damn…Duren could be available

Knicks probably take him but totally different than Kai….he is a man inside and crazy on the break

Yeah, he is a traditional big with no offense

Ok…really raising my optimism we can draft Duren now

As a freshman he also has some offense to his game and can run the floor. Really like his IQ

Sochan Gets under your skin which would be very welcome here defensively

Mathirin suit wins tonight

Just my opinion but I watched Purdue play 3 times last season and he had like no impact…Ja Morant? No

Wow…amazing good for him…amazing talent can’t fault Orlando

Have we ever had a guy that scores 46 points with 15 rebounds and 10 assists? Westbrook does that type stuff.

Westbrook still stuffs a stat sheet like madman. For someone to say he fits here would be silly…he doesn’t fit anywhere. Ball dominant is a serious understatement

If he turned out to be the best in this draft it wouldn’t surprise at all. He has elite size and skills. 6-10 250 with those skills is sick Would take Jabari Smith myself though. Similar type skills but his dog attitude is awesome. Smith is tough

I think Jalen Duren has enormous upside. If this kid has the work ethic he can be a big time player. His incredible improvement from basically a junior in high school (reclassified) to last season at Memphis was incredible. 2 years from now he could be something special. Gotta gage his want to be great but damn he reminds me of Chris Webber. Ways to go to be that good though

Not named Manning…lol at people writing this kid off.

I personally like Duren a lot but he is going to require a move up and not sure our appetite to wait on his development. If we don’t trade for a veteran with these picks I will be surprised honestly If we can’t find a trade Mitch is definitely going to take the best player available and not necessarily a center. I have a hard time seeing him zeroing in on a traditional center like Williams but he would help defensively no question

Thanks for the thread to track the events tonight. Draft is always fun stuff. Not sure how we even trade for Westbrook. Money wise the Lakers aren’t taking back salary with years IMO. We have to resign Bridges…period. Hayward and 15 for cap space works in my mind but how is 15 enough of a sweetener to take Haywards contract? Questionable

I think we will be very much improved. A much better OL will help the offense and the defense is really talented. QB is the million dollar question obviously

I have been watching a lot of these two bigs and for me its Duren. Even if we moved up with our two picks for him I’d be pretty happy. His offensive potential is much higher than Williams IMO. Built almost exactly like Myles Turner. Duren would fit us nicely and is very young as well with great upside

Did I miss a thread on him settling all but 4 cases? https://www.foxnews.com/sports/deshaun-watson-settles-women-sexual-misconduct

LOL

Blessing in disguise
