I'll preface this by saying I'm no NBA guru or follow it like the NFL and am not an NC State fan.. At all.

But I watch this kid and he's damn impressive. Good size, great scorer and a skillset that looks like will translate well and early in the league.

So if anyone has any opinions on him or wants to break him down feel free to in here.

We need offense and the kid brings it. He's one of those forward tweeners which may sway people away but if you're looking for points on the board, he's a viable option IMO.

What say you?

I thought he was great in college last year and I think he will transition well into the NBA.  He needs to improve his 3 point shot to be more than a role player at the next level, and unfortunately his lack of an outside shot makes him a bad fit with the Hornets roster right now.

 

If he's there at 24 I would be glad to take him, but I dont think he will be there and it doesnt make sense to trade up for a guy who wont fit the team right now

And lol at acting like there is much of a difference between the 2 spot and 3.

There is... one is a front court player and one is a back-court player.

The three is most likely more versatile because he can guard three positions on the floor.

Not to mention the way you play the game is completely different, you don't necessarily have to be a good shooter to be a successful small forward (i.e. Luol Deng and even LBJ early in his career) because your body is big enough where you can take it to the rack and even play down low.

However, you have to be a good shooter in order to play the two spot because you have to be able to stretch the floor so teams can't help out on your post players.

That's actually a pretty big difference.

      Why trading up in 2026 is a bad idea.

      By Basbear · Posted

      It puts more pressure on being right, I always feel trading back is the move 97/100 times. There are times where you fall in love and if that guy is only 7 spots away and the cost is only a 6th or pick swap......why not?? so long the cost is low, Im more willing to do so.  Still one of the best teams at trading back and they torn apart the Panthers on those trades; Pats. You still have to pick the players, that's what happens. In theory you should also add picks, but it does get to point of eight 3rd rounders or two late 1st and a 2nd?? I mean every draft is different, so the talent maybe not fall off a cliff after pick 50. Case by case deal, but vastly I prefer to trade back.....another curve if you trade back and the scouts/coaches have not planned for it. You have to be ready and know the spot you are trading too (everyone). Just like trading out of 1st round two weeks before the draft, that hurts your team as they have been focused on pick 10 and now its wait until pick 42....

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Basbear · Posted

      IDK, just I know these mock drafts are time "wasters" and even more before FA cause that does change a huge portion of the needs. I think Panthers are in on Lloyd, but just like Milton Williams if the numbers get too high they will change course and still sign one of the lesser ILB. I've also seen reports Panthers want boom back as well, but as STer/backup.   Personally Ive put Wallance in the Ickey, Brooks zone....... Acting like he's not on the team and if he shows out during OTAs, mini, and TC GREEEAT!!! I feel Panthers need to sign at least one and draft 1-2....hell even add another Bam-like UDFA in the UD pool too. Trade is on the table, there have been many trades than past years......   Given the team history, the LB corp is saddest ever. Still the league isnt paying ILB and Panthers finally got with that trend. I do feel Evero wants a IBL that can blitz and everyone wants one able to pass cover.  I feel no matter what, Panthers will draft one in the mid rounds and add a couple in the UDFA class.
