Early Entries to the NBA Draft

[justford]

To me neither one is good enough for the NBA at the moment. But I've been fooled before. They are very good college players who would be fringe NBA players at best.

For what it's worth, Kennard projected to go #20 and Tripper #40

Ivan Rabb entering

[Joneslab]

Duke's Jayson Tatum entering and hiring agent.

[Joneslab]

Florida State's Dwayne Bacon leaving and will sign with an agent.

[George]

What's the feeling on Giles? Will he risk a second year to get back to the high lottery, or will his knees keep him from climbing any higher than his current spot?

I hope Kennard returns. If we get more of these, then it would be worth it lol.

[Joneslab]

Louisville's Donovan Mitchell declares but will not hire an agent.

I feel terrible for that kid. I don't know that I've ever seen a guy that didn't even resemble the dominant player that he was in high school. Maybe Greg Oden?

[Joneslab]

Louisville's Deng Adel and Jaylen Johnson will also test the NBA waters.

[George]

Surprise of the year: Lonzo Ball will declare for the NBA Draft.

Louisville's Donovan Mitchell declares but will not hire an agent.

Heard he is a top 20 pick..he would be a fool to go back to UL

[Matt Dillon]

Heard he is a top 20 pick..he would be a fool to go back to UL

In my opinion, anyone who is a first round pick, should go.

[George]

Declaring, signing with agent:
- Tyler Lydon, Syracuse
- L.J. Peak, Georgetown

Declaring w/o agent:
- Xavier Rathan-Mayes, FSU
- Omer Yurtseven, NC State

I'm not sure Grayson Allen has any options but to return. He's not good enough to deal with his attitude issues.

Agree. Plus when/if he takes his tripping, flopping, and whining game to the NBA, those seriously large men will take a dim view of it, and he will pay the price.

He may not be so dirty when he gets away from his dirty mentor?
