Alex Ducas signed a two-way deal with OKC.

I follow the mock drafts and Furphy wasnt on any until 3 quarters of the way through the season. In many ways it was more a case of a rapid rise with nba scouts but not quite as rapid a rise as some had predited.

ESPN already have their first mock up for next year.

I hoestly think by the time the draft comes around Rocco will be top 5. His improvement has been staggering over the last 12 months and his performances at under age international level are elite.

I also thought 20 was too low.

Based on what I’ve seen so far, I’d be surprised if he got past 10.

Rocco will be a top 10 pick I reckon. So much talent

Dyson Daniels traded to Atlanta

Dyson Daniels traded to Atlanta

Should mean more court time and more offensive involvement hopefully

He could potentially be a top 3 prospect if he can add a decent amount of muscle before te draft takes place. His performances at junior internaltional level they are elite in my opinion and compare favrably to the likes of Dante Exum in his pre draft years.

Dyson Daniels traded to Atlanta

Unlike the spurs who got massive tv games coverage last season snagging wemby. . Not sure Atlanta will this year despite getting first pick

Next years draft is loaded. Top 3 is highly unlikely. Top 10 would be an achievement and probably team need dependant on who’s drafting in that range

Yeah I agree the next draft tl loaded but I think Rocca has a chance to be tlruly great. Like I said he'd have to gain strengtlh and improve significantly butl I tlhink he's capable of doing that. I'm also talking aboul his ceiling so basically if eveything went right with his developmenl over the nexl 12 months.

Our girls won 96-79.
Ziyu is in tears. She still had 42 points & 14 rebounds.

Proctor was such a disappointment. He went from being lottery potential this draft to I think 28 is still too high next one. Hopefully bounces back this year.

Saffron Shiels had 31 points on 12/12 from 2 and 7/9 from the stripe, along with 15 rebounds and 6 assists.

Yeah, I can't say I'm really factoring him into the Boomers plans anytime soon.

Yep I agree and 12 months ago I thought the opposite.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Don't really need him (though it would be nice), as he's in a postion (wing who can defend, put the ball on the floor a bit, not really a knock down shooter), where we are loaded (Exum, Green, Daniels).

If he could be ome a legit PG to back up Giddey, or hit an outside shot more regularly then the three above, it would be nice

 

[JT_the_Man]

Josh Green traded to Hornets as part of Klay Thompson sign and trade.

Poor guy. Should at least mean more court time.
