Ulrich Chomche is one of my favorite players in this draft from Cameroon. Elite rim protector at 6’11 but moves like a wing & he was a really good jump shot. Just turned 18 in December & already has a solid frame. If he makes it to the 2nd round, somebody gonna get a steal.
@@ohmydog9171 he could be very good but after watching him get absolutely torched in the p&r versus ohio state i don’t think he will be nearly as good as people expect him to be
I don't see Edey being picked at 13 is that much of a stretch. I feel like theres issues with all the C's this year and Zach Edey being 22, 7'4, 300 lbs might actually work to his advantage as he shouldn't develop much more so he could be an NBA ready player on a team that's trying to turn around and win now like the Kings, or the Thunder, not a project you need to develop like some of the other guys in the draft. Clingan just looks like Poeltl with more size which is not bad, but he will probably have similar issues like not being a great rim finisher and not being able to hit a FT. Ware looks interesting being a C who can shoot 3's and FTs, but has injury conerns already. Filipowski just looks slow and uninteresting to me, just Zach Edey but without the 7'4, 300 lbs. Missi is a 6-10 C which is would be small for even a PF so I don't know why people would think he would work out in the NBA, especially since he can't shoot 3's or FTs, he's going to be a guy who catches lobs and plays solid defense, so a worse evan mobley? Also this feels like a pretty shit/mid draft, so taking a player who can help you now in the 10-15 range might be better than using it on someone project that would maybe go 20-25 in a good draft. That all being said, I'm biased, I like Zach Edey and I hope any team I like drafts him. He may be slow, he may be a total bust, but being almost 2 inches higher than any other prospect going in the top 20 and being a big that can actually hit a FT or hit a 3, he is someone I would easily take a chance on with a mid round pick like the Kings have.
You know Edey just got his first collegiate three just last week. He has a nice touch around the room, but not 3 level. He is too slow to be effective on defense. Great college player, but will be nothing more than 12th man in the league.
Ya your right it's too early to say he can shoot 3's. But if he's 74-75% FT rate, can block, rebound, finish at the rim, even if he's slow he's going to be a monster at 7'4 300 lbs. He's basically got the body of Yao Ming but a tiny bit shorter and I'd way rather take a chance on that potential than the other centers in this draft easily except Sarr who is listed at PF/C. @@ThePapaduff
if Dunn is still available at 17 why Toronto wouldn't take him idk.... he is the OG replacement if not they need 2 draft at least 1 big man so they gotta get the Kelel ware imo... would be a great fit in TOR to space the floor for Scottie and RJ and Jak
There is no way the thunder draft 2 centers in the lottery. Their lack of size is intentional. I hope they take one because the value looks right, I would think the other pick needs to be a bigger wing
Gobert and Jokic fell in the draft for the same reasons Edey is going too. He’s a really good player and can definitely be a starter in the NBA everyone keep sleeping he’s the real deal
Good comments on Edey not being drafted in the lottery, I don’t understand why he’s getting first-round buzz at all. He won’t provide much value for an NBA offense, and he’s going to be attacked a lot on defense too. Pass. Good point on Portland not needing another guard for Pete’s sake, they probably won’t use a single pick in this draft (of 4!) on a guard, they have too many as it is. They will target Sarr, Risacher, and Williams. Also - do you think Reed SHOULD get picked in the lottery? He just doesn’t seem to have enough size, explosiveness, or playmaking ability or potential to me for the lotto.
You are the reason that I fell in love in analyzing draft class and playing MyLeague that's why I want to have your opinion on my thoughts on Ron Holland as I'm one of the Ron Holland non-believers and who is your player comp for Ron Holland. Thanks Matt! I admit that he is incredibly athletic and at least top 3 wing defender in this class but I'm low on him because of his IQ, playmaking, and self-creation (it looks so awkward and I don't think it translates in the NBA). Because of these reasons and similar players in the past draft, I've become a huge believer that he has a high bust potential. I still think that he is a 10-14 pick in my head but predicts that he still goes 6-9 just because of his athleticism, level of the draft, and teams betting on his self-creation and shooting translating or improving in the league.
I’ll never understand why people draft guys hoping that they learn how to shoot, especially after what happened with Simmons, it just seems odd to just ignore shooting ability in todays league.
That’s one player out of how many players that have been drafted to the NBA don’t base your bias off of one player you sound stupid don’t ever talk basketball again
It doesn’t make sense to draft Rob that high,in some mock drafts he’s even late lottery. If the Spurs got the top 3 pick,they should draft Cody,and if the Raptors’ one converted,they could still draft Rob or another PG with the 7th.
As an OKC fan, I'd love to see those 2 1st rd picks turn into sheppard and take a chance on Dunn as I think he has a huge upside. Bit of a reach with Dunn but I like the kid

@@QuailForever he’s a good passer out of the post and a good paint protector there are tons of guys in the league who rely on there size to score to not consider Edey in the lottery with a weak draft class is insane
@@XabzintheNBAGuru Most of the best guards in the NBA are "short". Steph, Dame, Kyrie, Morant, Tre, Tyrese, derrick rose etc... Skill is the most important measure of a player, especially in the back court.
Enough with the guards for SA we need a PF to pair up with Wemby Collins ain’t cutting it. Trae Young is coming to SA. Go for Alex Sarr and trade for Trae Young, then go after Ryan Dunn the defensive juggernaut with their 2nd Pick. Now that’s a defensive team with fire power
Hot take, players like Edey will be crucial in the league going forward just cause of their size. The NBA will become Wemby’s league for the years to come and you will need those 7’4” beasts to stop Wemby going at the rim and force him to shoot (even tho he’s still gonna be a great shooter). Edey may not be a spectacular defender as of now but with NBA coaches I can see him being a crucial piece to stop Wemby and lesser but still great players of the same archetype like Sarr and Chet.
Completly agree about Zach Edey, he's not a lottery material at all. He only have his size and weight for him. He'll just be another tacko 'slow af' fall
maybe this is a casual take by me, but is this draft class weak, only really know 10-11 names on here when I typically know the entire 1st round well or is it just that we've been spoiled by such a strong 2023 class?
AK drafts on best player available, that and if a player randomly raises his stock near the draft expect the bulls to draft them. Although in this case I hope we draft Reed, he looks like a guaranteed good role player kinda like Grimes
Look at how Matisse Thybulles career has gone and try and honestly say that Dunn should be a lottery pick. That’s an insane take😂 u need to be able to play some offense if you’re gonna have value in the league
Pistons taking Sarr would be a mistake. He's good. It's not because he's bad. But he doesn't help maximize the Cade/Ivey/Ausar/Duren core. Just complicates things further. Draft a wing.
@@blurredFR I don't think that's the case at all. Cade isn't a bust. Ivey isn't. Duren isn't. Ausar isn't. Their problem isn't drafting talent. Their problem is building out a roster/lineups/rotations that make sense.
Edey looks like absolute ass. All he can do is that one hook shot and draw fouls, that will get shut down quick in the nba unless he can develop some other skill besides just being tall
is it just me or does Alex Sarr feel like he might become an Anthony Davis type player? would defo draft him #1 overall if the team has no franchise PF/C yet
The complete lack of awareness about the Raptors is evident in this mock draft. Toronto has way too many guards, why would they draft three more? This is a draft where they will be looking big, not adding more guards. Although Topic would be nice to get, not gonna lie, but the other two picks would 100% be going to a 4 or 5
Charlotte needs all the defense and size they can get. Charlotte definitely goes for Risacher or Cody Williams I dont see the appeal in Matas for Charlotte.
Devin Carter isn’t a point, not sure why all of these drafts have him being listed as one unless they’re projecting, but as of now he isn’t and has never been the 1 for Providence
The OLD COPOUT...w regards to Edey..."there's no way he can keep up with NBA centers", blah blah blah...Umm who the hell is gonna keep up with HIM??? Bc those same players who are in college right now can't guard him at all! He's actually a more athletic version of Yao Ming, so you're saying Yao Ming, if he was in this draft, wouldn't be at least a top 13 pick???? You're nuts!
Good grief. The Spurs are not going to select Dillingham at number 3. It will be Topic. The Spurs just don't select for a short streaky shooter. They select for FIT, IQ, Defense, and team ball. That will eliminate Dillingham on all counts. Secondly, the Raptors have a better record than Memphis and a better team. The Spurs will probably get the 7th pick in this draft. Look for a Risacher/Topic with a Burzelis/Salaun picks.
As a raptor fan I love topic his 6,8 a true pg and fits perfectly with quickley I think with quickley I don’t like him at our pg spot his our guy handling the ball I think he should be a scorer like a kyrie Irving he can run the 1 but you want him scoring the ball I would like a true pg beside quickly so it takes the load of him and he gets to focus on scoring the ball more
I hope isaiah collier falls to the raps. I like how he plays a lot. I think he could be really good in the nba one day. Also he would probably have a good rookie season.
I would bet my house that the Thunder don't draft Clingan. He would be an awful fit and doesn't possess any of the skills that the Thunder look for. I hate hearing people think the Thunder need a big that can't pass/shoot/dribble. Filipowski I wouldn't hate, but Clingan is cringe worthy. Honestly would be suprised if they drafted both. Would love to see a trade up scenario for Jalen Williams little bro.
Okc would definitely take Kyle over holland he literally the ideal center that okc wants, holland doesn’t fit what okc goes for I understand Sheppard though he fit the mold of what okc goes for when drafting As for clingan, fans who don’t know how okc operate gonna be real disappointed again when they don’t draft him or player like him, like I been telling fans for the past 3 years
Im just gonna make my predictions on how their nba careers will pan out: 1.) Risacher - role player at best. Bust for a top pick. 2.) Sarr - solid starting 5 center. Not a franchise player to build around. 3.) Dillingham - bust. Super small & weak. 4.) Buzelis = bust. 5.) cody williams = will be a solid starter. Okay player. Will not be as good as his big brother. *6.) Topic = potential to be the 2nd best player on a bad/mid team. May eventually even be the #1 option on a bad team. Should be drafted at #1* 7.) Walter = will be a solid starter. Okay player. 8.) Salaun = role player at best. Bust for a top 10. 9.) Filipowski = will be a solid starting center EVENTUALLY one day. One dimensional. Only defense. 10.) Ron Holland = will be a solid starting 5 player EVENTUALLY. Can eventually be like the 3rd best player on a good or mid team. 11.) clingan = will be a solid starting center one day. One dimensional. Kinda like steve adams. 12.) Reed Sheppard = will be a really good role player on a mid or good team. He has austin reeves vibes potential to outperform what critics will think of him. 13.) edey = will not have a long nba career. HUGE BUST. This is like picking a slightly worse version of mo bamba. He should be in the WWE instead or be in movies. Maybe post nba career. I would not draft him. 14.) isaiah collier = role player on a mid-good team. Nothing impressive about him. 15.) stephon castle = potential to be a huge steal. Could eventually be the 2nd best player on a bad or mid team. He should be in the top 8 imo. 16.) mccullar jr =a low level role player. Type of role player to be passed around from team to team. Could possibly be in the nba for 9 or more years. 17.) devin carter = low level role player. Will not have a long nba career. everybody after this is a low level role player except maybe Yves Missi who could potentially be a solid starting center one day.

Good grief. The Spurs are not going to select Dillingham at number 3. It will be Topic. The Spurs just don't select for a short streaky shooter. They select for FIT, IQ, Defense, and team ball. That will eliminate Dillingham on all counts. Secondly, the Raptors have a better record than Memphis and a better team. The Spurs will probably get the 7th pick in this draft. Look for a Risacher/Topic with a Burzelis/Salaun picks.
As a raptor fan I love topic his 6,8 a true pg and fits perfectly with quickley I think with quickley I don’t like him at our pg spot his our guy handling the ball I think he should be a scorer like a kyrie Irving he can run the 1 but you want him scoring the ball I would like a true pg beside quickly so it takes the load of him and he gets to focus on scoring the ball more
SPURS PLS SELECT NIKOLA TOPIC❤❤😭😭HE CAN BE THE NEXT LUKA!! PLS DONT MISS HIM
CBSSports has Edey in the lottery
I hope isaiah collier falls to the raps. I like how he plays a lot. I think he could be really good in the nba one day. Also he would probably have a good rookie season.
I would bet my house that the Thunder don't draft Clingan. He would be an awful fit and doesn't possess any of the skills that the Thunder look for.
I hate hearing people think the Thunder need a big that can't pass/shoot/dribble. Filipowski I wouldn't hate, but Clingan is cringe worthy.
Honestly would be suprised if they drafted both. Would love to see a trade up scenario for Jalen Williams little bro.
Okc would definitely take Kyle over holland he literally the ideal center that okc wants, holland doesn’t fit what okc goes for I understand Sheppard though he fit the mold of what okc goes for when drafting
As for clingan, fans who don’t know how okc operate gonna be real disappointed again when they don’t draft him or player like him, like I been telling fans for the past 3 years
Imagine commenting before watching the video
I didn't imagine anything
@@nocap6000you guys can imagine?
You could read the website beforehand
I fully disagree on Edey
Topic is possibly Killian hayes 2.0. Guards who can’t shoot and can’t defend are a big no for me
He can shoot and he can defend…. Please watch the Adriatic league or euroleague when he is back from injury
@@jamesedwards1284 he shoots 25% from 3 what you mean
@@astrahl he can knock them down, form looks good he just needs to get more consistent but that will come.
@@jamesedwards1284 said the same thing about Killian. Killian was a better shooter than Topic even. Idk. I don’t not like him. But not that high
Wait, G League players can get drafted now?!
Ignite is i the only team they can get drafted from i think, its not owned by a nba team. Scoot Henderson played for them too
THE KNICKS JUST CANNOT TAKE 2 PF's IN THE 1ST ROUND......BEST AVAILABLE "C" WITH THE 1ST SELECTION 17-19
This has to be one of the weakest classes oat
No Terrence Shannon is crazy
Not really. There’s a pretty obvious concern there right now
how is justin edwards not on this list? he is a bucket
I would love Tyler smith to the Knicks
Nah we need experienced rookies who can contribute immediately like dalton knecht, reed sheppard, ryan dunn or kyle filipowski
Im just gonna make my predictions on how their nba careers will pan out:
1.) Risacher - role player at best. Bust for a top pick.
2.) Sarr - solid starting 5 center. Not a franchise player to build around.
3.) Dillingham - bust. Super small & weak.
4.) Buzelis = bust.
5.) cody williams = will be a solid starter. Okay player. Will not be as good as his big brother.
*6.) Topic = potential to be the 2nd best player on a bad/mid team. May eventually even be the #1 option on a bad team. Should be drafted at #1*
7.) Walter = will be a solid starter. Okay player.
8.) Salaun = role player at best. Bust for a top 10.
9.) Filipowski = will be a solid starting center EVENTUALLY one day. One dimensional. Only defense.
10.) Ron Holland = will be a solid starting 5 player EVENTUALLY. Can eventually be like the 3rd best player on a good or mid team.
11.) clingan = will be a solid starting center one day. One dimensional. Kinda like steve adams.
12.) Reed Sheppard = will be a really good role player on a mid or good team. He has austin reeves vibes potential to outperform what critics will think of him.
13.) edey = will not have a long nba career. HUGE BUST. This is like picking a slightly worse version of mo bamba. He should be in the WWE instead or be in movies. Maybe post nba career. I would not draft him.
14.) isaiah collier = role player on a mid-good team. Nothing impressive about him.
15.) stephon castle = potential to be a huge steal. Could eventually be the 2nd best player on a bad or mid team. He should be in the top 8 imo.
16.) mccullar jr =a low level role player. Type of role player to be passed around from team to team. Could possibly be in the nba for 9 or more years.
17.) devin carter = low level role player. Will not have a long nba career.
everybody after this is a low level role player except maybe Yves Missi who could potentially be a solid starting center one day.
Ouch
I'm so tired of being a bulls fan it's depressing lately. Reed Shephard wup de do
Nah I’m not buying euro this time
This draft class is soooo bad
Tyrese Procter ?
Bro what is that thumbnail pic lol
Is it weird lol? I changed it like 9 times
@@Sros1 giving Popeye vibes bro
What does that mean haha
Draft seems underwhelming
what a trash Mock..
Zach Edey at 13 lol.. No Salaun? No Trey Alexander, No Tristan Da Silva? No Ivisic? No Justin Edwards?
Some of those players will be drafted Day 1 because of potential for sure..
Zach Edey?! lol
Dillingham at 2 is wild, dude is barely a first round pick
Topic sounds more like a Spurs pick. What, with their love of foreign players.
Zach edey😂
Gavoney is one of the best draft guys out there. I tend to trust his opinions more often than not. This is not a good draft class a lot of these guys coukd basically get picked anywhere.
France on top
bronny da goat!!
They should just drop this draft
