They all have their warts.
Isaiah Evans is a knockdown shooter, but his shot selection certainly leaves something to be desired.
Defensively, he's got to work on that.
He's got to get stronger, not a great handler, but
Anybody who can shoot the way he can, that's a proven NBA skill, and he is elite in that respect.
You know, Henry Vessar is sort of in that model of a floor-stretching big, but again, he's got to get stronger.
He's not quite the rim protector or rebounder you'd want from a seven-footer.
And then Malik Thomas, I think, does have star upside, but again, he's a little erratic.
The shot selection can be all over the place, but...
he's a pure bucket getter.
So I think those three guys are all going to come off the board really early tonight.
They should be, as these picks 31 and 32 are effectively being auctioned off, those three guys I'm looking at as going off the board the first couple of picks here.
I mean, he's got to be the Wembley stopper, right?
That's his job.
Now, look, I do not think that because of his foot speed, because of his, you know, lack of endurance, he's not ever going to be a 25, 30 minute a game guy.
But I don't think he has to be to be effective at the NBA level.
Um, obviously people see the size, the shot blocking is so natural.
Um, you know, I, I keep thinking back to when Duke and Michigan played in February, which was a game that a lot of us thought was going to be, you know, a final four national championship preview.
And, you know, Cameron Boozer, the number three pick in the draft keeps going at the guy and it's just a stonewall.
I mean, you just cannot get past him.
