Who should the Sixers take in the NBA Draft? + Thunder Rolling | Slam N Jam

Those guys are like one of a kind type of players. Um, I'm trying to think like I put a Nas Reid type of role is like his worst case. I'm trying to think of a big that's that level of score in the way that Queen is able to attack. Maybe like a super like Nas, you know, like Nas Reid. He's not the shooter Nas Reid is, though.

Yeah. Okay, so let me go through some of this stuff. Maybe you guys will come up with a name. Off the bounce, has euros, bumps, floaters, left-hand finishes, draws foul, covers ground with his first step, loves his spin move, has momentum off the catch with his cuts, short rolls, dunkers. He's a quick finisher, so he's not an explosive guy. He is a high-level processor.

Yeah. And that's what I had somebody reach out to me with Queen was when his measurements came in, they were like, Bryce, I just want you to understand that this is below average for well below average for a five and like neutral at best for a four. And so there was some concerns whenever the measurements came in, in terms of the wingspan and the standing reach and and some of that stuff. So.

Who should the Sixers take in the NBA Draft? + Thunder Rolling | Slam N Jam

I did early in the cycle. I was super high. Like Common was a guy I thought. So for people who like track this or I guess for people who don't early on, this was a considered a top five draft. That's why when people talked about how good this draft was and they hung on to that notion for too long, it was Cooper, Ace, Dylan, Vijay and Nolan Traore.

I thought common was the guy that was going to break into that for me. Like when I first turned on the film, you know, right after last year's draft started looking at the 2025. I'm like, I love this dude. This is my archetype of player. And it just, he didn't show that upside. He hasn't shown the floor spacing and some of those skills, but, The defense is really interesting.
