Well deserved for the anchor. He'll be a top 3 defender in the NBA by the end of his rookie contract. Making CT proud.
you wont get drafted just for being 7 foot anymore but mobile and skilled centers have always and will always be in demandCenters arent in demand in today's NBA. I love the kid and I hope it happens.
Yea skilled mobile centers have 3 straight mvps and a 4th likely again this year. Big men still run the NBA.you wont get drafted just for being 7 foot anymore but mobile and skilled centers have always and will always be in demand
This is an insane take.Centers arent in demand in today's NBA.
Rudy Gobert was traded for 4 first round picks.Centers arent in demand in today's NBA. I love the kid and I hope it happens.

NBA scouts are drooling over what he's shown in this tournament.Just not sure a big without a jumper makes sense that high. If a team thinks he can develop one then that’s a different story.

He had more than 5 blocks just in that video clip, and it was only from a part of the game. They showed him defending the three point line, and switching from one man to another effectively. He's a one-man zone defense.
I counted 5 too. Maybe one or two might have rolled off finger tips but you would have to slow mo close ups to confirmI watched it closely and by my count there were only 5 clear blocks. He definitely may have gotten a piece of 2-4 more but you’d have to see a better angle. It doesn’t really matter — altering a shot can be better anyway. And he did that over and over and over.
Not sure where Givony’s getting top-5 but he’s solidified himself as a lotto pick and all it takes is one team in the top-10 to fall in love with him.
If you've never seen the Eiffel Tower, does it exist?Just not sure a big without a jumper makes sense that high. If a team thinks he can develop one then that’s a different story.
Just because he doesn't shoot them in games at 20 doesn't mean he doesn't have one.Just not sure a big without a jumper makes sense that high. If a team thinks he can develop one then that’s a different story.

I take it you haven't seen this
We’ll pass your point along to those making the pics.If he can’t shoot them in games then, he doesn’t have one. He is 0 threat to shoot in a live game.
I’m well aware he’s working on it as he should be.
My point stands. If a team doesn’t think he’s capable of developing his jumper they shouldn’t take him in the top 5
Not much of a point, imo. Why wouldn't DC develop a 3-pointer? Al Horford only shot four 3's his entire college career. Missed 'em all.My point stands. If a team doesn’t think he’s capable of developing his jumper they shouldn’t take him in the top 5
