One of the toughest adjustments in the NBA is finishing inside, because of the size and skill level of the defenders. If you are bad at in college, NBA teams are not going to look at you unless you are terrific at other things.

It's not impossible that he could forge an NBA career - he is strong, a good passer, and a pretty good 3 point shooter, but late 2nd round would be the best case scenario right now, and I have doubts he would get that.
So you agree....?

Obviously we need Cumberland first and foremost but not a lot we can do about that. Seeing as how we only have one PG I think Johnson would be a big deal too. Brooks would be a big deal too but I guess we have options to throw out there for him in Diara, Nsoseme, or Gillam and or Hardnett could move Scott over to the 5. Not optimal but at least there are options.

Curtis would be a tough loss but probably the most replaceable of the 4. Grad transfers here we come...if we lose 1 or 2 of the guards

From the mouth of Bob Huggins then from the twitter of Alex Meachem, "We only want those who want to be here!"

Per Justin Williams Twitter...Brooks is in the transfer portal but not eligible as a grad transfer. he is weighing his options and could also stay.

Probably looking for a really big time opportunity I guess with a blue blood or something. I guess pro money is not a big deal for him at the moment since he would have to sit a year.

I hope he finds what he wants or and or returns.

I wonder what brooks is trying to find. He would be starting on a top 25 team, with his friends. What situation would be better than that?

Jc LoJo have been practicing, so idk why they would leave, I think brooks is coming around to staying(only because his Instagram story, that’s the only thing I’m going off of, definitely just my opinion.) and who knows with Curtis the only thing I can see being a good thing is on his tweeter under his info about himself it still says he’s a commit
