Jalen Duren Scouting Report | 2022 NBA Draft Breakdowns

- Jalen Duren has one of the most NBA ready physical profiles of the last several years and he happens to still be one of the youngest in this draft class. HIs season kind of went how Memphis's as a whole did. Ups and downs at the start, some injuries but ultimately, Duren proved himself as a potential top 10 pick.

Duren is going to thrive playing with Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey, there's going to be soo many lobs next season.
I called it him and ivey
Hornets fan here. I've seen enough. I'm satisfied.
great video, thinking the girzzlies could take a center and wondering whether you could do a kessler video at some point?
Jalen Duren it's Great hope spurs take him at 9th pick 👍👍👍
I’m hoping OKC get Jabari and Duren.
That’s exactly what we need like think of the starting lineup. Giddey, Shai, Dort, Jabari and Duren👀👀👀 or Bazely might start at PF we dk
That Memphis BLEEK beat tho 😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Reminds me of early Dwight Howard with better touch and offensive iq
A KG/Dwight hybrid
Calling it now. Blazers.
i see Bam Adebayo in him
It seems to me that he can dunk.
I think he'd 100% fit in San Antonio at their 7-9 pick. Having a guard like Dejounte playing next to him along with going to an organization that knows how to round out players and raise their floors would definitely play on his strengths as a player, especially since it seems that he's a more faceted player than he's shown in Memphis.
Maybe I'm crazy but I think Jeremy Sochan has more upside than Duren as an elite defender and half-court playmaker.
@@gremcilia_immermurin I don't disagree, Sochan reminds me of Shawn Marion in how many things he can do on the court. It's just about fit and what role you're asked to play once you go to a team. If Jeremy goes to the right team he could definitely become one of the most well-rounded players in the league, just comes down to what team wants to take a chance on him in the lottery over a guy like Duren who has a predictable impact coming into the league as shot-blocking rim runner on day 1.
I've seen a lot of spurs fan interest in duren, are you guys out on poeltl or do you see him as a long project
We can have both Poltel and Duran. Having Poltel as center and Collins as power foward or switch Duran a center and Collins as power forward.
@@57wookie Poeltl does a lot of great things, but he has holes as a player. Duren is a young prospect who can emulate and learn from Poeltl strengths while also learning how to be the best version of himself on both ends. His ceiling is higher than Jakob's as well. It's kind of, pick the best player, regardless of if you're already filled at that position type of thing.
Ideal fit for me would be with the Pistons. Him and Cade would do wonders and help each other out tremendously. Cade operated best last year with Marvin Bagley as a floor spacing center. Now imagine what he can do with Jalen Duren. Duren never played with a good point guard in college and mostly all of his HS career. Having Cade would help him tremendously.
Imagine him at 7 (portlands pk for JG)
I agree. I would love for the pistons to draft him. They need a solid big man... They have too many guards already. When they finally were healthy at center and pf last season they were competitive.
ABSOLUTELY! I need the Pistons to trade for another pick this year to draft Duren.
You called it!
You called it my guy
I stumbled on your channel and I really enjoy your content. It’s evident you work really hard and do your research to properly study these players. Sky’s the limit for you bro. Keep doing your thing.
99% of the time when he finishes down low, he goes up strong , with a dunk ….crazy let’s go pistons 💪🏾👀💪🏾
He like Howard with toughness and better touch
@@tonemoney1733 we can only wish , hope so … let’s go Piston 💪🏾
Detroit is Lob City with Duren and Bagley. Exciting time to be a Pistons fan!
Cj-BI-Herb-Zion-Duren in a year or two
I like it 🤷🏾♂️
He’s a man child. Can’t imagine just what he will be like in 3or 4 years he could possibly be over 7 feet tall and 270 lbs of muscle. He will fit very well with what Detroit is building.
This guy is literally a young Dwight Howard
6'11" 245 pound 18 year old, with a 37 inch vertical. Sign me up. Spurs, please draft him!
Actually 255 lbs, 7'5 wingspan and huge 10.5-11 inch hands.
You can definitely tell Duren has been working on that face up mid range jumper over time, I see a bigger Bam with less playmaking
bam is so much more of an agile defender, duren has stiff hips
@@alexbrannon5734 Duren is bigger and stronger than Bam at that same age he can work on that
Exactly, that’s why i think the robert williams comp is spot on
I see Deandre Jordan with more offensive upside. Bam is more of a PF/C hybrid and better at guarding wings and guards than a than a true Center. This guy is definitely playing the center spot.
He reminds me of Boogie Cousins when he first came out of Kentucky.
As a Pistons fan I see a less silly version of Andre Drummond when I look at Jalen. Could be great next to Cade.
That body at that age with the defensive instincts and rebounding ability if molded correctly by the right hands could be flat out scary.
Especially if he becomes a real post threat. Screw the three Jalen. Play Barkley's game... Well I mean Barkley shot threes sometimes too, but you know what I mean.
I see him as the antithesis of Drummond. Crazy athleticism and mobility. Elite defensive potential with already elite rim protection. I always saw AD as a borderline out of shape 80’s type center.
I was thinking the exact same thing. He's what we need.
reminds me a little of ben wallace
@@JMatthewJohnson You just wanted to say long and hard. 🤦🏽♂️😂😂
Go murray, Ivey, sharpe or mathurin at 5 and duren at 7 (portlands pick for jerami grant)
Giddey and Shai would thrive with Duren playing off of them
@Odogg Shiesty we have 2 and 12. I’d like Jabari or Paolo at 2 and Duren at 12
@@vibechecktsundere4912 ironically, they could have done both of those lol
@@ChrisbeFoSerious I’m fine with what we got. Just risky but I’ll trust Presti. But Jabari and Duren was a real possibility, I just hope it doesn’t blow up in our face if Chet and Jaywill struggle and those two thrive
Honestly, I don't think he is 6'11, imho he is more 6'9.5
I've seen a lot more places saying 6'10 recently. I mean it's not too bad if he's a bit shorter if his wingspan is still a good length and he develops as a switchable defender. But given his age he still could grow a little bit which wouldn't be too surprising
6’10 barefoot
His muscle makes him not look as long like the narrator said
@@dtslimefr9741 yeah I can see that being the case. But even if he is shorter like there's still great centres at that height like Bam and Rob Will
I truly think he can be Elite in the NBA, he’s one of the Youngest in the draft, a super athlete, a defensive monster and flashed playmaking ability and a midrange jumper
like your videos bro
@@diegoscb Appreciate it!
Can he play pf?
@@lilyounggamer No, he's definetly gonna be a 5 in the league, but I really like the DeAndre Ayton Offensive comp, both got a solid jumpshot & i think they both have the ability to hit 3's but don't really need to given how much else they bring.
So he's basically a Myles Turner type of player?
I hope he goes to the Hornets. Him and Lamelo could work.
Same.
He's a beast NBA ready hope the Pistons get him perfect fit for them just needs to learn how to dribble better and post up my comparison is Giannis Antetokounmpo
We’ll see you in Detroit big fella!!!
Hopefully we can get Portland's pick. Pick duren at 7 and one of the guards in ivey or sharpe.
Charlotte should've kept him, better fit with Melo
Yeah! Let's go! Welcome to Detroit, Jaylen! Now all we need is to secure DeAndre Ayton
Every Young player is kinda named Jalen, Jaden and Jabari
Jump shot look like Kevin Garnett jump shot
Welcome to the pistons. Cade Ivey bay Hayward duren? Thats gonna be sick
Pistons will be even more fun to watch now since Duren and Ivey are there!!! Cant wait for summer league
Need him in okc
Recon we just traded for him Detroit Pistons, we just got a guy who can guard Giannis
The Knicks need to get him if they're no longer interested in Mitchell Robinson.
Exactly what I was thinking
Pistons are gonna be so good with this kid and Ivey joining the team!
I love that u added more voice overs on ur scouting videos. It keeps me into it more. I can tell that u do ur research and that u are knowledgeable about the game
If that guy keeps working on his game, with his size and power , I can see him become something special.
Imagine a paint beast crashing the glass , catching lobs and dunking everything while overpowering other big mans with his size and strength. If you add to that,a post scoring and mid range jumper that he already has in his arsenal..I mean wow.You get a much heavier Giannis without the handles, but still that’s insane.
Taller version of Time Lord, perfect to have two crazy good guards like Cade & Ivey
Detroit just turned into Lob City!
Welcome to Detroit 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He definitely gives me some Robert William vibes but with Deandre Aytons body back when he was in Arizona
OKC PLEASE
I want him to go to OKC. He can anchor the defense and get set up by their great playmaking back court.
If okc can take him and Jabari or something, this will be the draft to damn near complete the team
@@Darealmenxce I was thinking we go for smith and ayton in free agency
@@Darealmenxce this is exactly what I was thinking. OKC should trade up on the 12th pick to try land a 7-8 pick. They have the assets required to do it. Imagine acquiring Jabari at #2 and Duren at #7. Shai, Dort, Giddey, Jabari, Duren would become a 2025 championship calibre team.
Where is the defense man? Where did it go? It literally just disappeared and now he doesn’t even know how to time his contests
I wasn’t sold on JD but he’s grown on me in the last month & 1/2. My Blazers need wings but if he lands with us I’d love to see him model his game after Ben Wallace. If elsewhere he should model it after Roy Hibbert later in his career. 😂
Great analysis once again tho. Hey I got a question for u. Say the Blazers luck into a top 3 and land PB or JS, who would u take @ #9 to put w/them + Simons, Hart, & Nassir Little to give us an elite young core?
I left Dame & Nurk off cause I’m hoping we move them & build around Simons.
Exactly what The Detroit Pistons need. Looking forward to draft night and the off season. Over to you Troy, Dwane and Front Office.
Go Pistons!
@@socombaptist This was Troy's main guy from the beginning (we're talking several months back here), and under no circumstances whatsoever was he gonna let Jalen Duren end up anywhere else but here in Detroit as a Piston. When the chance to get Ivey became totally realistic the last several days or so, it was then that I knew Troy would end up getting BOTH if he made that Jerami move, to which he did.
Great call
Future OKC Thunder
i have no idea why san antonio didnt draft him
OKC should take this guy or Jabari Smith
This kid is a beast, with a very high basketball IQ. Very happy he's coming to Detroit.
Welcome to the Thunder!
Solid work! Great indepth scouting report on this young man. I think the Pistons did well getting this young fellow in the draft. Detroit Basketball!!
Thanks for the collection of his defensive moves. I think he's going to be an impact defensive player, and being mentioned as all-defensive team for few seasons of his peak.
He reminds me of a more physically balanced mo bamba. In college both were elite shot blockers/roll men with some offensive upside. Bamba's taller, lankier frame has caused a lot of missed games in his career tho
Then hornets traded him
You should do a video on mid major guys you like. Were dead on with Bones Hyland last year. Jalen Williams and Isiaih Mosley could be ballers
Robert Williams IV -Detroit vs. Everybody
HI you’re definitely the best with these prospect evaluations. You break it down meticulously. I wasn’t a fan of JD earlier in the yr but he’s grown on me and I’d be happy with him if my Blazers pick lands in the 8 or lower range. I’m completely sold on Ousmane Dieng’s upside tho so he’s my 1st choice even if it’s at number 8. Might sound crazy to some but that’s how much I believe in him. Now if we move up to #1 or 2 it’s Jabari for me or trade down if we can land Duren & Dieng. #GoBlazers!!
BTW: Are you a Suns fan? I think I remember you from before PHX was a contender.
7'5 wingspan, looks solud as a center , woah.
Knicks would take him if Mitch is no longer in the plans. By the looks of his game. I can see Thibs using him like he used Joakim Noah back Chicago.
Welcome to Detroit 🤝
Fucking love this pick! Bro got bunnies!
Go Pistons!
Blazers!
Charlotte should pick him and pair him with Lamelo
Athletically he reminds me a lot of Dwight Howard. He's much more powerful than Robert Williams was at draft age (and he's only 18), but he seems more keen to score than Timelord
If OKC doesn't snatch him up, I definitely see him going to San Antonio or Portland.
Well now that OKC has #2 things could be a lot different
Reminds me of BIG BEN WALLACE
Now why did Charlotte trade this guy in the 13th pick to Detroit? It's literally the position they're in dire need of and pairing him with Ball could've made him even better. Very confusing but Detroit has to be happy since Stewart didn't develop last season like they wanted him to
Reminds me Boogie Cousins in his prime.
Detroit
Imagine he becomes a Joel embid/AD type player
OKC if they fall out of top 5
do you think theres any chance he falls past 10?
grizzlies should get the lakers pick so wondering whether it would be possible fo us to get him
Grizzlies might use their assets to move up to get him. That rumor has been going around for a while. They're looking to replace Steven Adams after this season.
I see a young Jermaine O'neal. Not quite as smooth, but a lot stronger at that age. Although he doesn't know how to use it on the court yet. His whole rookie contract will be used as development.
If he can shoot, they're going to call him Kaven Duren lol.
His face-ups reminds me of KG. So far he's looking like a bigger Gerald Wallace
The Pels could definitely use him, put him behind JV and let him learn. We can use him against guys like Ayton, Joker, KAT, and Draymond. Defense in the paint is a must, especially next to defensive stoppers like Jose, and Herb.
Remind me of Ben Wallace
Hornets at #13.
Take him over Mark Williams who is too one dimensional.
Duren is immensely athletic. Good pace. Shoots. Blocks. Good wingspan. Good height.
Hornets is looking for a center that doesn't need 4 years in the G league. And he's just 18 going to 19. Williams will be 21 on draft night.
Use picks to move up to get him if he at 9 or 10. Or Keep picks and Hope Williams Sochan and Kessler still on the board.
Depending on where my Knicks end up at in the lottery, if we are at the back end, I’d love for the. To take this monster! Do a sign and trade with Robinson to get back a asset, maybe another pick in the draft and find a PG or SF. Again, this all depends on draft position.
I wouldn't mind letting Robinson go, draft duren and sign a veteran pg. With our guard spot congested and no future starting pg in this draft to really chase, we should strengthen our big spot. Mitch, burke, and randle can go and play the youth
@@CaptSlim I wouldn’t frown on drafting Duren if he were to be in our draft position.
Deeeetroit Basketball
He’s better than Wiseman!!
Welcome! To Detroit
Dj and Duren duo in SA would be UNSTOPPABLE! 😤💯
Welcome to Detroit!
If he gets drafted by the spurs oh boy do watch out for his middy
Chip will have him being a mid range God by year 3
Do anyone knows how tall duren really is first he's 6"9 then 6"10 now 6"11..??? Does anyone really know?
If Detroit falls to the middle lottery on draft night I would not be suprised if they leave with this guy.
jalen duren will be drafted by the san antonio spurs in the 2022 nba draft
Let's hope they can use him
PISTON
Pistons
He reminds me of Dwight howard
It'll be a bittersweet day when a team picks this dude up for scouting and he has to stop
We need your services on the Portland Trail Blazers, sir
But can he score, or in a Game 7 might we be seeing "8 pts" beside his name? 🥴
SGA, Giddy, Poku, Chet, Duren. Dort could be traded with the clippers pick to move back up to get Duren to complete the draft. Time to develop.
This is the dream scenario
But we would keep Dort
@@deancoleman6098 True 💯
Great content very professional… keep up the great work.
