Under the radar good. Combo forward at 6-8 225 who can defend multiple positions handle the ball good passer and great shooter
Looks like a version of Pascal Siakam

Dude has the body and the stroke. Definitely someone to key in on if we trade down.

It’s these types of players that end up being higher rated once they play in the nba. 45+% 3 point shooter from all angles. Plays from 30 feet to above the rim. Handles passes plays tough d

His highlights make him look like a real solid player but a couple of his stats bother me. Half of his attempts from 3 with his massive frame and just 5 rebounds a game? That’s way too dangerously close to Marcus Morris for my liking. The jury is out though. I’ve never seen him play outside of that video but those stats bug me regardless. I’m sure Knicks1248 would love him though.

There's an outcry on the board to re-sign Morris for 20 mil per. Picking up a young Morris would be ideal.

Villanova plays that open, small ball style. You'll see "bigs" with seemingly lower rebound totals and "smalls" with seemingly higher rebound totals.

$20 million for Morris is a massive mistake.

This is the style I want us to play. Faster tempo with great passers who can shoot drive and play defense. Saddiq is nearly a perfect 3-4 F — you can’t teach 6-8 who shoots 45% volume 3s who also who also has athletic ability shake and handle.

I would trade Knox in a multi second with pick 37 to move up to a later 1 to get this guy. He’s everything we could beg out of Knox.

I like it. Players that can shoot is the only players I want. Mid to late 1st round?

Just checked nbadraft.net. They have him going early in the 2nd round. Maybe we target him with our 2nd rounder.

Looks like a very exciting player that has the big tine nba skill sets — ready to plug and play. He’s a first rd pick. If I can turn picks 25 38( and Knox if needed)into Bay and Pritchard. I’d be happy. This draft is actually not bad at all. There are going to be some good bigs fall into late 1 early 2.

I would give all of Randle-Handle minutes for Siddic Bey's 2-Way performance .. All-Day, Everyday !!!

He is ranked 14th in Tankathon's mock. The Stepien doesn't have him ranked in their two tiers. He might be a guy that falls because of no tourney or workouts.

Also, what happened to The Stepien. Zwicker, Rubin etc. all seem to be off the site. The write ups are still good but just not as many.

He is also is ranked 14 to the Celtics on CBS and 19 on bleacher report to the bucks. They both mock him as a high floor/ low ceiling roleplayer who could help a contender. I think he goes first round in the late teens/early 20’s. If he falls down to us at 27 we should definitely grab him.

Grizzlies have added a lot of good pieces the last few years.

It's guys like this that get undervauled. He's 21, the same age as Donovan Mitchell when he was drafted. The age, "upside" arguments get thrown out because 21 is considered elderly by GMs in the draft.
