You donât get it then. What does âwhat a player has provenâ matter to draftability.
Do you know who Peyton Watson is? In case you donât, Iâll clue you in. He played a frosh season at UCLA and got 12.7 min/gm. He averaged 3.3 pts/gm and 2.9 reb/gm.
Would you agree with those numbers that he hadnât âprovenâ anything??? He got drafted in the FIRST round in the 2022 NBA draft. Why? Cuz the draft is about short/long term potential.
As I already said, TA and JoJo will be gone after next year.

This is absolutely not true.
Some of you think guys have to be the star on the team or put up big numbersâŠ.its simply not true.
What you just said directly contradicts why Jarace was drafted.
I love Sharp as a Coog, but he doesnât have NBA explosiveness/quicknessâŠyet. Now if his jumper gets EVEN better, thatâs another convo regarding his pro prospectsâŠ
Nate
I kept saying this. Glad you agree, sir
Jarace was not great but was good enough for the cougars. He also has not produced anything in nba yet. It is yet to be seen if he will come close to the expectations that pacers have from him. Time will tell. At some point, the GMs will have to answer to the fans on the draft picks based on potential.

Itâs all big data and analytics now. You can rest assured that if mistakes are made, they will be found and paid for.
For example Last years NBA Champs had:
Murray - 36 college games played, 7th pick in the draft, 211 minutes played in the finals
Jokic - 0 college games, 41st pick, 206 minutes
Gordon - 38 college games, 4th pick, 178 minutes
Caldwell-Pope - 64 college games, 8th pick, 171 minutes
Porter - 3 college games, 14th pick, 147 minutes
Brown - 52 college games, 42nd pick, 134 minutes
Braun - 101 college games, 21st pick, 82 minutes
Green - 102 college games, 5th pick, 65 minutes
87% of the minutes were played by 5 players that averaged 38 college games before they went pro. Thats not counting Jokic who was international, but 19 years old when drafted. They seem to be knowing what they are doing

Anyone know if we have a chance with Jamier Jones?
He commits this weekend.
I am by no means in the know but I struggle to see someone committing to us without an official or unofficial visit. I donât know the precedent for that but seems like he should at least come once if he was serious about committing
According to 247, South Carolina is his only âwarmâ, everyone else is âcoolâ, but no prediction.
Cenac/Clark - Centers
Henderson/Adams - Wings
Green/Flemings - Point guards
Coach will probably bring in 3 blue chip prospects out of those 6
