    Who’s going in the 1st round?

    After this year, who do you expect besides JQ to be a first round pick? Who else might be a lottery pick?

    BTW, I’m not a draft fan. I never watch the draft or any NBA games. However, I do think it’s a good measure of player development, a good measure of hype around the program and around the players, and a strong tool to attract future talent.

    I'm hoping against hope Reece Potter goes first round after this year!

      AJ if he stays healthy and plays up to earlier expectations.
      Garrison and otega have a good shot
      it's much too early to know due to so many factors that can change things so everything is just a guess and will continue to be iuntil draft nite.

        Oweh.
        Going forward, Christian Laettner volunteers to catch any dildos flung on a basketball court - or anywhere else.

          afraid Ive lost all interest in the players NBA stock. It isnt the first rounders that aggravate me, its the guys that get all the feedback that say they arent going to be drafted and pay attention to their friends and hangers on.

            I think JQ might be the only first rounder.

            Jelavic is probably next, but I think he’s more likely a second round pick.

            Williams and Lowe are possibilities, but I think Williams will ultimately decide to return for next season. He’s going to be a role player this season, so he might return to showcase his skills and be more of a focal point of the offense next year. Lowe is a little on the small
            side, which will ultimately keep him out of the first round. There’s a good chance he returns as well.

            Johnson might be a first rounder as well, based on potential. He’s got the positional size and athleticism. I think he will be overshadowed by the upperclassmen. I think he will be like Pettiford and Philon and will return for his Sophomore year, so he can shine.

            Garrison probably goes second round at best. It was his plan all along to leave after two seasons.

            Oweh will go second round.

            I think JQ, AJ, and BG leave, if they play up to their potential. So with DA and OO, that makes five departures after the season:

            I think we have 9 players back out of the 14.

            Lowe
            Dioubate
            Potter
            Chandler
            Williams
            Noah
            Johnson
            Moreno
            Hawthorne

            Add 2-3 impact Freshmen or transfers. Add 2-3 developmental guys.
