The box score says 13 made baskets. Just watching this video, I see one 4 dribble post up and 3 two dribble drives where he pulled up for a jumper. Everything else was no dribble. The stylistic similarities to Kobe and Paul pierce are real. He’s not over-penetrating like earlier in the season. Aggressive but under control and engaged mentally off the ball. It’s really impressive. I can’t stress enough how valuable it is to be able to score without having to dribble the ball more than twice. He shows veteran feel
Forsure and 6’10 with that type of bag is frightening. ImO he already has an nba level bag. He already has at least two go to moves where he can pretty much score when he wants. His Jab step gets him so much separation then Boom 6’10 shooting over whoever 😂
He definitely will be a 1:55 superstar caliber type player in the future. He has raw talent skillset and he's so athletic for his size. Look at how much mismatch he faces in college basketball. When you are in mismatch, you have advantage to be all around threat on the court
His ability to pull up in any fashion is gonna translate perfectly. Hes got an elite style pull up game already off dribble , mid dribble , tmac hesitation pull up. If he keeps progressing hes gonna be a lethal scorer at the next level
I can see that. He has to polish his ballhandling and skill but he has the foundation. Cant compare a 19 year old ace to a 27 year old jayson Tatum but at the same age ace is better id day. Ace has that next level gear of athleticism Tatum doesn’t have. Very few people have it matter of fact Tracy mcgrady lebron Zion Giannis etc. If I’m picking #1 I’m taking ace over cooper it’s close tho. Anyone that gets a top 3 pick this draft should feel good. Ace cooper and Dylan are all future all stars
Nah bruh go watch some highlights of JT at Duke. Footwork been crazy, handle been nice, more physical, better defense, better playmaking.. leading scorer and best player on a stacked Duke team. They were talking about how advanced and pro ready JT offense has been since he was in high school
Next years ROTY race is going to be wild might be the closest one we’ve ever seen it’s legit 3 players who could be superstars and Bailey definitely one of them
I see this kid figuring it out. Hope his team continues to feed him like that. I see good things happening if they do that. I didn't even mention Harper yet. If this team figured it out...watch out.
Team record doesn’t matter, Wembys French team stunk but he was still chosen no 1. Put Flagg on Rutgers and Bailey on Duke and both teams wouldn’t change record wise
Yall gotta stop with the Tmac comps. Tmac could score but he could also play make for his team. Ace is a black hole, you pass him the ball and nobody else touching it. He’s Michael Porter Jr.
He’s Michal porter without the back injuries which is #1 pick potential. The current Michael porter in the nba now is a lesser version due to his back injuries and that says a lot how good he is to still be in the nba
@ I feel you but Michael porter pre back injuries was wayyyy more athletic than he is now. Have you seen his high school highlights? Ace has the natural god given athleticism that few people have and he plays hard and aggressive at 6ft 10. He’s not a finished product at 18 years old.
@@ceeb107 I just mean the type of player he will be. They are pure scorers who have very low playmaking ability. I don’t see Ace as a player who you build a championship team around because he doesn’t make anyone better and the ball stops as soon as he touches it. I see him in a role like MPJ where he’s a 2nd or 3rd option who just worries about scoring. He could develop some play making ability but some people just are who they are.

Him n Flagg….You won’t fail with either💯 They both crazy🤦🏾♂️
he will probably be playing in the nit though, what a waste, he should have picked a contender team for college.
very true. as a duke fan, have to give respect where its due. Ace is the truth
He is giving off some very strong Carmelo Anthony/ Tracy McGrady vibes in this video!
Extremely impressive, especially before he picks the ball up!
There's so much talent in this draft.
1000%
He definitely will be a 1:55 superstar caliber type player in the future. He has raw talent skillset and he's so athletic for his size. Look at how much mismatch he faces in college basketball. When you are in mismatch, you have advantage to be all around threat on the court
1:55?
Good recognition to change his offensive selection @@JoJoWoody

the next year ROTY rush will be amazing
his game is just so smooth man!
He top 3 draft pick fasho 💯
Very impressive specially the triple threat into the shot
Every week wit this dude
I know they're different players, but Ace is what we expected out of Cam Reddish at Duke
I've said this many times..
Ace bailey special talent 🔥🔥🔥
37 is tough!
4:35 “Gimme That Shit”😂
🥶
Reminds me of the Celtic's Tatum. Only Bailey is more advanced that Tatum was at that age. Could be another superstar in the making.

Lil bro bag work is nice 🏀🔥💯
Number one pick
Stop it!!(Shaq voice)
lol, no.
You spelled 3 wrong
Hell nah
Flagg, Bailey, Delon, Harper, kasper.
Ace Bully aka Ace Thirty. My Guy said future face of the league me 💪🏾
This kid is special
Next years ROTY race is going to be wild might be the closest one we’ve ever seen it’s legit 3 players who could be superstars and Bailey definitely one of them
I really hope he doesn’t end up on the wrong team.
well he picked the wrong team for college.
The way he iso'd in the post, and then do catch and shoot threes....esppecialll
Next K.D . Brutal
I see this kid figuring it out. Hope his team continues to feed him like that. I see good things happening if they do that. I didn't even mention Harper yet. If this team figured it out...watch out.
Young melo‼️
Let him land in San Antonio and the rest of the league can kiss the next 10 years goodbye....
Boi was balling
This guy is T-Mac, Melo and Zion combined. Finesse, diverse offensive skillset and athletic gifts combined.
He’s nothing like Zion 😂
What about Tatum?
ACE BAILEY#4 SHOULD BE THE #1 PICK IN THE 2025 NBA 🏀 DRAFT ..
Andrew Wiggins?
A much better rebounder, but very similar.
Hell nah. Wiggins never had this aggressive mentality consistently.
Wiggins wasn’t even close to the scorer Bailey is. Especially from 3
He reminds me of a taller Reggie Miller.
Young Reggie Lewis
How do you have 2 of the top 3 picks in nba draft and have such a bad record in a weak conference
How did Rutgers add 2 of the top 3 player from the previous class and is 10-10. If they that good they should be winning more games
Raptor
#423 Chattanooga Tennessee
😂 bailey flagg harper together in one team wizard
He plays like young Melo
with a little more size and athleticism.
Only red flag for me is why is his team record so bad when they have 2 top 3 prospects in this years draft?
The 13 other guys are just THAT bad
bcs the rest is washed two freshmen canno carry a team a simple as that@@Thebackendhugo3229
I'd assume they have no vertical spacer, shooters, rim protector, on ball defender, perimeter defenders, etc.
Team record doesn’t matter, Wembys French team stunk but he was still chosen no 1. Put Flagg on Rutgers and Bailey on Duke and both teams wouldn’t change record wise
@@cozyfay7985 coz the rest of 13 dudes are most likely won't plat basketball for living after they graduate
Smh Raptors won 5 in a row so they just lost out on the race for Ace
Dude I’ve never seen a player like this. Lanky like KD and can lock up like Kawhi… Raptors need him 🙏🙏

@@ceeb107 His game didn’t change. He’s always been a black hole on offense, just like Ace. My point still stands
@@ceeb107 His game didn’t change after the injury in regards to him always being a black hole on offense. Just like Ace. My point still stands

plays like brandon ingram
