NBA Draft 2017

[GarradJ21]

Anyone plan on watching tonight? I'll track it on my phone, but I doubt I'll turn it on.

I see a team like Oregon, not your Duke, UK or UNC type team having 3 possible kids drafted tonight. We need to have some NBA talent in order to make a run. I really think Evans will go to the league. We need Washington or Clark or how about both to really emerge this season and get some publicity about going to the NBA. If they are doing that, then most likely we are having an exceptional season.

Have we really not had a Bearcat go in the draft since Lance Stephenson?

I know Troy wont get drafted tonight, but before him, have we had someone participate and play for so many teams leading up to the draft? I'm sure Kilpatrick did, but besides that have we had any in a long time? Ellis or JJ maybe?

I don't remember SK, JJ or Ellis working out for as many teams has Caupain has. Seems like he has made it to over half of the league, which is great. He definitely has a G-League ( the new D-League Branding) spot if he wants it. Might be smarter for him to go overseas and make some real $.

Evans is currently sitting at the #37 spot for the 2018 draft. A good season could see him going 1st round. After seeing Rehfeldt post Evans' vertical yesterday. he has the athletic ability to play fast/ at the rim/ above the rim. He needs to do that this season.

Bearcat513 has he posted anything on how Cumberland is progressing physically?

I don't see how you can pick Fultz #1, a guy who won 9 college games. He may be able to score, but I don't know how he could offer anything else to a team. You would think a #1 pick could at least get a college team to double digit wins, no matter how much of a mess his team was.

I'd take Fox #1 if I were Philly. If he can develop a consistent 3 PT shot he'd be unstoppable

Nothing specific on Cumberland, no. Not that I have seen. He posts photos, videos and such every day on his social media. If he does I'll let you know.
