Kenny as a dude from Perth let me give a little context to Alex Sarrs stats. He was playing for a team in win now mode with the leagues best player on his team, so he was never going to get the room to develop as the guy and put up lofty numbers. However, this was made even worse by the fact the coach was absolutely terrible all year and barely wanted to use AS despite the fact Sarr was probably the second best player on the squad.
Thank you for this. I didn’t (and still don’t pretty much) know much about sarr, but this makes sense why his stats were not great. Love the info my guy!
Dalton Knecht is absolutely beloved in Tennessee. Mentioning his poor performance against Kansas is wild when he had so many games where he was an absolute stud.
Also a huge reason why dalton knecht went to Tennessee was to develop defensively by Rick barns and he did the performance he did against Kansas early on is irrelevant bc him at the end season was night and day on his defense ability
Just know right now he's limited offensively. But defensively he's already very good. We knew Wemby would have struggles on offense early on, but he was valuable as a defender from the jump.
Kenny Sarr's stats are only like that because he's playing in a top 3 league in the world on a top team. He doesn't even get that many minutes for the Wildcats
@@ztlabraptor211 but the Jazz are asking for a young potential star and picks. We have GG Jackson. Contracts to match salary like a Luke Kennard or Brandon Clarke(good players too)and multiple picks. We could throw in 4-5 firsts including the 9th pick and then also throw in some seconds.
@@dregamingz Lauri is basically the ideal target they should go all in on. He’s a perfect secondary scoring option, he’s an amazing off ball player who shoots at a high level, is very athletic, finishes well both off the pick and roll and in transition and can defend. He also gives them some much needed size at the 4 without compromising their switchability or their spacing. And yeah I think young guys and 4 picks is the package, but again I think other teams can outbid Memphis’s offer. Utah also has no reason to trade him right now as he’s stated repeatedly he’s happy there
No way Risacher falls this low lmao, he’s the clear 2nd to me behind Sarr Also a lot of y’all will be surprised at how high Bronny goes. Ulrich chomche is nice and looks like the steal of the draft, definitely can be an nba starting quality center with his defensive qualities He’s very raw but he was born 30th December 2005 (honestly might be forged LMAO) so he’s one of the youngest in this draft, and his athleticism is really good for a 6’11 player
It’s crazy asf that i have been watching Kenny for 8ish years and some of these guys getting drafted might also have watched Kenny for years cuz I’m the same age as them. Kenny gotta be feeling old now man (just kidding, all love bro ❤). Been watching this man since he was like fresh outta high school.
I doubt dalton falls to 11 but if he did I’d say it’s a great pick. Reminds me of bogdon a little bit, Professional scorer has the confidence and talent to be great in this league.
As someone who lives in providence I’m rooting for wherever Devin Carter goes. He was electric to watch this year can’t wait to see him contribute in the nba.
A simple formula to get a good player is draft Kentucky guards. If you draft a guard out of Kentucky there is a very good chance they will wind up being a good player and the list goes on and on for examples.
Bulls are not in a bad draft position for a weak draft. The scariest picks in this draft are the top draft picks because thats where people have irrational biases for players. Picks 10-14 tend to be a hot spot for sleepers in these types of drafts. Thats where you get Bam Adebayo, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Donovan Mitchell, Tyrese Haliburton, etc. etc. And that Giannis draft is also the draft that produced our current MVP in Nikola Jokic. Earlier picks are going to look for safe bets (which tend to be roleplayers) or they’ll shoot for the stars and go for the highest potential physically, which can easily turn out to become busts.
Every time Kenny tries to say Risacher I hear it as "Richard Sarr" and I'm like Alex don't have a brother. It's Ree - sah - Shay if you see this Kenny.
imo they should select terrence shannon jr if he is available at 11. I feel he has that nba ready physique and would be able to adapts relatively quickly because of his time from college.
Look up Kel Ware. He's a possible outside of the lottery guy but has the upside to be one of the best in this draft. Hope my Pels pick him if he falls to us at 21.
I'm an Illini basketball guy, but I don't really love Shannon. Yes, he's an athletic scorer, but what else can he do at a better than decent level? I don't love Hawkins either, but he could really thrive as a 4/5 in the right situation, dude's got skills. Domask is my guy, if he can add a three point shot (entirely possible, being a great free throw shooter), he could become Austin Reaves with a Luka-esque mid-post turnaround jumper. What's the real ceiling for any of those guys? They're older prospects, which means less time to adapt to the game, so likely they're 7-9 in their respective rotations at best
nikola is the best player in the draft, all time playmaker ceiling i like him cause he can’t shoot 3s that’s all anyone cares about anymore so they overlook how he’s elite at literally everything els.
There's no way Risacher falls this low but if he doesn't get drafted in top 3, I think the Spurs would be a perfect place for him to develop. With Topic injury he might drop lower to the draft, letting the opportunity to draft him or Dilingham on pick 8 (hey we can dream 😅)
Kenny bro let SROS stick to the mock draft and draft projections that’s his specialty 😂 your shii is them rebuilds and all around nba talk. Clique is king of simulation and smoove is the goat of my career !!
He said in the beginning of the video that this is him documenting his journey in learning about the players. He knows a lot of people like this content and a lot of people did.
NEVER FORGET WHEN KENNY HAD ME THINKING SEKOU WAS GONNA BE AN ALLSTAR
SEKOOOOOOOUUUUUUUU
Ong
he will be, trust 🙏
2k20 during Covid was peak times to watch Kenny 😭
First person I thought of lol
Sekou Doumbouya was Kenny’s guy 😂😂😂
Literally commented this at the same time
@@connorcabe5095SEKOUUUU
I thought Sekou and Killian would’ve created a crazy French duo for my pistons. I’ve been sad ever since
Worst thing is they actually had potential
@@leomartino8783pistons killed them lol
A guy Kenny loves was Jarrett Culver😂
I remember the 2k20 videos when he used to hype him up 😂
I thought Jarrett culver was gonna be him bro he was so nice at TTU. Sucks he was buttcheeks in the league
I was a victim to Culver too lmao
tbf i thought hed be good too lmaoo
I hope he’s doing okay
Having 'Healthy Zach Collins' as a comparison is wild😭😭😭
It’s just that kind of draft classes lmao
@@afilleduptaco I think hes referring to the fact that they said "healthy" lmao
I don't think Zach Collins is as bad as you think he is.
@@Maver1ck101 i was referring to 'healthy' part of it🤣

He’s not wrong that bum couldn’t get Tennessee to a final 4 still 😂😂😂😂😂

Kenny: “I’ve watched Clingan play a bunch”
Also Kenny: “I’ve never seen Stephon Castle play.”
Make it make sense
bros confused always
He literally backtracked on that 0.5 seconds later
Tari Eason was one of those guys
Remember when you went crazy for Nic Claxton after you saw him at the combine in 2019
Great player
Kenny was high on Kevin Knox, he had him 2nd in his ROTY predictions for the 2018-2019 season
Kenny Knox?
@@LeNut-yi7ui I meant Kevin 😭
This is terrible
Knox averaged like 13 and 5 his rookie year. Just didn’t pan out
Knox was nice for a minute rookie year

yall don't remember kennys obsession with Keita Bates-Diop
Dalton Knecht is absolutely beloved in Tennessee. Mentioning his poor performance against Kansas is wild when he had so many games where he was an absolute stud.
He gon be a steallll in the draft bro, I can see him taking over in the league!!
@@gabefife951he’s a natural scorer
Also a huge reason why dalton knecht went to Tennessee was to develop defensively by Rick barns and he did the performance he did against Kansas early on is irrelevant bc him at the end season was night and day on his defense ability
He’s a dog
No final 4s you bum
worth noting sarrs averages are in 17 minutes total, so 9.8 points doesnt look great but its actually pretty good
Basically this is what wemby looked like his second to last year too
Not to mention he's playing against grown men with experience, not 19 year old college kids.
Just know right now he's limited offensively. But defensively he's already very good. We knew Wemby would have struggles on offense early on, but he was valuable as a defender from the jump.
I'm actually think he could be a taller siakam. He has offensive upside.
@@gabrielcarrasco9078 yeah he's much rawer than wemby is, he's a project player and still has a lot of developing to do
Kenny used to glaze sekou dembouya 😂
kenneth stop edging me with the white sox series
Isaiah Roby was one of your guys
Also random NBA player of the day goes to: Vernon Carey Jr.
i remember you loved shai and nickel alexander walker
Would love a little mini series of you reacting to some of these guys highlights.
The league is just waiting on Cooper Flagg next year.
Great videos keep up the amazing work! I have watched literally almost every video that u have ever posted on this channels lol
I was lowkey waiting for this
Dalton Knecht is my guy of this class, my fav prospect prolly
hes already 23 though so i cringe when i see him mocked in the top 5
23 and couldn’t even take bum ass Tennessee to there first final 4😂
Will he be divincenzo or herro or jj redick?
@@hagaiderech1765 he plays nothing like either of them

For some reason I’m very invested in this years draft! Excited to hear your opinion Kenny!
Maybe it’s because no one really stands out, so it’s gonna be cool to see who ends up being amazing
Bruh the knecht scouting report only talked about what he felt bad is what it felt like😂😂😂
Love being by early to Kenny!
Keep up the good work been watching daily for years now!
Kenny Sarr's stats are only like that because he's playing in a top 3 league in the world on a top team. He doesn't even get that many minutes for the Wildcats
Kyle Flipowski to the Nuggets would be really interesting
You should react to your past videos on nba players that were prospects at that point in time
Video of you reacting to their highlights would be dope Kenny.
Kenny def lit up a lil before this 😂
I thought you were big on Claxton cause I started looking into him after I saw you talk about him
yo kennyyyyy we need that white sox series
7:03 I remember you was a big Matisse Thybulle guy
kenny was talking about sga and naw way before they’re rise to stardom
Grizz needa trade that pick and grab Lauri Markkanen
As a jazz fan. We would be fine tanking for cooper flagg. We know we arent competing this season
Lauri would get a much bigger return, realistically okc probably outbids whoever.
@@ztlabraptor211 I don’t think the Thunder are going for Markkenan. I could see them trading for Mikal Bridges though as a Giddey replacement

The French and Canadian Olympic teams are gonna be crazy in a few years with all these good young prospects coming from both countries
Stephon is one of my guys because I watched him and interviewed him in high school, great guy. Rooting for him
Same with Isaiah collier . ^ exact same
What is good w that enjoy crewneck shit is fire
kenny you were big on sga after his first summer league on the clips

Grew up with Robert Woodard. Always been a great basketball player too me.
Knecht was a STUD in all of the Vols games I watched this year (only 3 of 'em but still!!!).
why have i been watching and listening to kenny for 2-3 years now and not seen him wear a hat backwards 🙃
One day I promise you and Pierre will actually read Rissacher’s name and realize the CH is at the end of the name and not the beginning Lmao
As someone who lives in providence I’m rooting for wherever Devin Carter goes. He was electric to watch this year can’t wait to see him contribute in the nba.
Bro was a Rudy gobert Stan wayyyy back
As a TN and bulls fan It would be awesome to draft DK!!
If i’m the Hawks i’m taking Bronny 1st and signing Lebron so our fans get to enjoy those father-son alley oops
I hope you’re right that the old school Hibbert style centers are coming back
They did Knecht dirty with that description don’t worry

You were so high on Sekou
these kids so young I think a lot of them have potential once developed in a few years

Marcus Sasser from the Nets MyGM!
This is unrelated but Kenny can u please do a long rebuild this year for 2k24. You did the nets and kings in the past and I loved watching those.
I like that at least one player from this draft will be great we just don’t know who
I want Sarr on the Wizards so bad 😭, i need the French Connection.
Topic would be a beast if injuries dont stop him. Pure bucket. Spurs should draft him and pair with Wemby.
Topic is soooooo much better than Rob Dillngham
Ty Jerome was one of Kenny’s sleepers
Can you react to last years mock if you have a video
The steal of this drfat will be Juan Nuñez, spanish pg that has played 2 season in germany pro league. And he played for Spain in the last world cup
Bub Carrington will be an NBA star
Sleeper pick
Fax, maybe tyon grant foster too, but he old af
imo they should select terrence shannon jr if he is available at 11. I feel he has that nba ready physique and would be able to adapts relatively quickly because of his time from college.
Great show and Go Rockets!
This draft class looks like it's 2k generated 😭
As a pistons fan Kenny made me think sekou was goin be Gianni’s 😂
The draft of all potential nothin rn tho
This draft class isn’t actually that bad. No bonafide superstar but a ton of guys that could be in the league 10+ years.
Look up Kel Ware. He's a possible outside of the lottery guy but has the upside to be one of the best in this draft. Hope my Pels pick him if he falls to us at 21.
Aye kenny matas buzelis went to high school right up the road from u at hinsdale central
Can’t even say these guys names and he got invited to watch them in combine. Crazy lol.
Risacher has to be higher in mock draft fr
Jokic, Jovic, Topic.
Tyler smith to OKC
Ja’Kobe is imo the most interesting prospect dude kinda reminds me of like a Westbrook type player or the potential to be
Kevin Oconnor was the guy who was skeptical of Luka and deffended guys like Ayton, JJJ, Bagley and even Trae. So anything he says i doubt it...
This draft class is so underrated, Sarr is nice but imo Sheppard and Williams could be superstars, Buzelis is a questions to me fr

Kenny and Alex Burcs in 2k21
This are the players I think will be all stars...sarr risacher dillingham and Ron Holland and topic and buzelis
Bronny James to OKC
Shai and JW you were really high on
I really thought Jarrett Culver was gonna be nice after that one year of college at tech
