No JA in Bleacher's top 50 NBA 2019 draft prospects.

[Ewekon]

More motivation and bulletin board material; but quite frankly I think it's a mistake by Bleacher Report.

9 out of top ten are freshmen.

Don't know how to link list from their page

I haven’t looked in a while but last time I looked Jalen Adams wasn’t in any of the 2019 mock drafts...although like 10 kids with the name Jalen were.

I think JA has been overlooked and disrespected in many of the preseason material that has come out, but not in this case. You probably have to be a top 100 player in the world to be a point guard on an nba roster. The position is so stacked. Jalen has a chance to make the nba but it’s not a sure thing, even if he has a great senior year.

 

[Purple Stein]

Also currently undrafted on Nbadraft.net.Then again, at this time last year they had Larrier as a second rounder.

I think JA will be drafted this June.

* I should have noted in my OP that this is just US college players eligible for 2019 draft so that didn't even include the foreign guys.

I hope he does because I feel like the program has let him down but if I had to put money on it I would put money on him not getting picked in May. If we have a good year this year it'll be because he popped off but objectively I would be surprised if any mockdrafts have him getting picked at the moment

 

[AntG168]

Honestly he doesn't deserve to be. He needs to go out this year and prove it. PERIOD

 

[HawkHusky]

He'll earn a first round pick in his final year, just like Kemba and Shabazz.

 

[superjohn]

It would take a lot for Jalen to get drafted in the first round, a lot.

Hes 22 or 23 already. Old for his class. I wish him the best, but itll take an incredible year to go first round. I think someone will take him in the 2nd regardless

 

[HawkHusky]

SMH.

 

[Chief00]

Jalan appears he’s listening but then seems like he hasn’t.
Hopefully, that has changed and we will see the results this season. Chief00 is pulling for him.

 

[uconn34]

Has not earned it Yet!

Exactly. He was the best player on 2 AWFUL teams. He doesn’t deserve to be nominated for anything

I think Jalen is as talented as any guard we've had, but he's not worthy of much NBA attention yet. He's a 6-2 combo guard who is not a great shooter or playmaker, has shown questionable decision making, conditioning (despite the heavy workload) and leadership is to be questioned as he has been often seen pouting/yelling at the coach, and his claim to fame is that he's been the best player on two abysmal teams. He will need an enormous year to be a first round pick. That being said, I think if he buys in and is actually coached for the first time in his career, he can be a 20 and 6 lead guard on an NCAA team. That will give him a fighting chance of being a late first-round pick.

They've had him bouncing on and off the 2nd round board the last couple years

 

[Huskybass]

I want to disagree with everyone and argue that JA should be on mock drafts, etc, but it isnt coming easy. I think he certainly has the talent, but he has to show discipline, resolve and success to work his way into the draft.

Jalen is, has been, and always will be a Point Guard.
