Jaylin Stewart getting NBA Draft hype after averaging just 9 minutes per game is pretty amazing.

Each Championship team has featured a sophomore that made an incredible leap. 2023 was Hawk. 2024 was Karaban. I expect Stewart to be that sophomore breakout next season.
I think Clingan was the sophomore breakout for the 2024 Champs.

Another 2025 mock draft.

McNeeley 8th.

Karaban 13th. How can he have pulled out of the draft twice when he only entered it once?

Another stat/line regarding McNeeley is that the betting sites have him as a pre season top ten in odds for winning the Wooden player of the year award.
Even though he has yet to play a college game, this alone says a lot about his talent and expectations.

He hasn’t done anything to warrant being drafted yet. Was basically a bench piece once castle was full strength. He has plenty of talent but played tentatively and scared last year. I think he will need 2 more years to be NBA ready.

He did more than Stew, no? I mean Solo started 10 games and averaged 7/gm in that span including 13 against UNC. Yes, once he went to the bench he lost his way. But I think Solo showed more potential than Stew (who still has a lot of potential).

Wish nothing but the best for Steve and his team. Falling to UConn in the Final Four is great

Stu did his best work at the end of the year and solo did his best early. both have plenty of potential and could be mediocre to great this year. I have more confidence in stu but certainly could be wrong. Team has so much depth that either could struggle for pt if they struggle early

He did more early, but people act like he went from starter to out of the rotation immediately. The reality was he played his way out of the rotation because Stewart was slightly better, and did more for us defensively. Stewart also got a later start, which explains why Solo was more ready at the beginning of the season.

I think both guys are gonna develop into good players for us, but it was obvious by the end of the season who would contribute more in their minutes.

Stewart and Ball don't even play the same position, Stewart was backing up AK once he became a permanent fixture in the rotation

I said it in the first game i saw him in. His build and just the way he moves around the court instantly said NBA player. Hes going to be really, really good this season.

Not sure this is getting anyone drafted.

projectable frame and movement athleticism probably THE thing to get someone drafted.

And ill eat the leftovers. That would be unreal if McNeeley won NOPY. But in a world where we`ve gone back to back anything is possible.

Just got Karaban at +15000 for the Wooden award. Same odds as Nowell.
