Allonzo Trier cannot buy a shot, as he's 1-6 shooting in the first half. His poor shooting from the end of the year and into the Pac 12 Tourney has continued into the first half of this game.

Ayton and Trier pulled a Lonzo and announced they are declaring for the NBA immediately after their loss to Buffalo. Surprised they did that after Lonzo was criticized for it last season.

Just don't see him as an NBA prospect.

His last few games do have me a little worried. Small sample size, I know, but I am starting to wonder. Just a gut feeling I'm getting, so I see where you're coming from. I'm going to have to drop him down in my rankings. He also doesn't look like a good perimeter defender. Still, his overall body of work makes him worthy of a 2nd round pick. But I liked him as a 1st rounder about a week ago LOL.

we need an athletic center that can run the floor and be a consistent alley-oop threat for lonzo going forward. Mitchell robinson would be perfect. let's hope CLE keeps losing!

Who likes Anfernee Simons? There's a lot of players in the early-mid 20s who I like. I can't let go of Simons

After watching the Marshall game I'd rather have Frankamp than Shamet, if only to see him and Caruso play at the same time.

He went from being my hope for the 1st round pick to my fallback for the 2nd round pick. I haven't seen a Bruin crash and burn that spectacularly bad in the Tournament since Don McLean.

He had no help in that game, Welsh gave him 2 pts, the freshman looked scared and he’s played great all season.

I was intrigued by Shamet but this game was a live broadcast of all his flaws and I don’t think he’s worth a pick in this years draft. I’m formally apologizing for that basketball analysis.

On the bright side the horrible tournament play might let both Shamet and Holiday fall into our laps.

not sure if they will make it to the Denver pick....but I think they would have always been there with the Cleveland pick.

Why not Elmore over Frankamp? At least Elmore has some creation abilities and his range extends to near half court.

Yeah I liked Elmore... and I still like Shamet despite his choke on the big stage.

Felt bad for the kid... seemed really devastated.

He didn't stand out to me but I haven't watched him a ton. There's guys I'd definitely prefer but a lot of smart draft nerds like him lol

also known as the "Jevon Carter Effect"

He’ll be a solid guard off the bench at the next level.

Kendall Stephens is a baller too. Don't sleep on him. He needs to get stronger and gain a little weight but he has NBA potential.
