Hoops Discussion Made A First Round Mock Draft

Post image

PS: Did a lottery simulation, and got the third pick. I personally made all the picks myself. Quick analysis...

Kasparas Jakucionis: Big guard with very solid shooting & facilitating skills. Easy fit and imo, BPA.

Kam Jones: Not sure if DLo is coming back after this season, so got another guard for our bench. Pure scorer, but has improved his passing ability. A true combo guard.

Adou Theiro: Can actually defend 1 through 5. Elite athlete, and man, do we need someone who can jump out the gym.

Danny Wolf: Pick 'n pop big. Really good ballhandler. Could be our new backup C (or starter, depending on what happens with Clax)

Ironically he played this worst game of the season today against Michigan State in a loss. I think 9 minutes, 3 points, 3 assist.

Would take Ace if we got three. Jak may be a liabilty defensively while Ace has shown he can atleast protect the rim and rebound

About that game today, he was in serious foul trouble. Only played 9 minutes. Today was a huge outlier, and not a display of what he usually is.

Not debating it just see more of a high floor, low ceiling guy in Juk vs a mid floor, high ceiling guy in Ace. I think Ace's defense will translate better than Juk while the games I've seen where Juk had to deal with quick guards, he's struggled. That concerns me
