Arkansas have four guys I think could go first round in Smith, Council, Black, and Walsh. They should make a really good tournament run

Really thinking kris Murray will be a good option. His twin Keegan was the 4th pick and I really don’t see a major difference between them. Maybe minor as far as shot creation but that’s the only real difference. Kris is tailor made to be a role player combo forward. Good shooter and switchable defender. He would plug in nicely at a backup SF and would probably be trusted defensively without issue. A bigger 3&D forward is something this team lacks. If Knicks are drafting 2 players in the middle of the first round then maybe taking a safe 2-way player like Murray along with a more risk/ reward type guy with bigger upside might be a good approach.

Can't wait to check in on this guy in two seasons.

A player to keep an eye on eventually (he’s injured right now) is Rayan Rupert from France. He’s playing for the NZ Breakers. I expect his name to come up a lot once workouts take place. Seems like a mid first round prospect and he’s a long talented defender with an improving jumper. Given his build and skill set, his upside would be like a mikal Bridges type. That’s the type of player thibs will target. He got his guys grimes and deuce in 2021 so I expect him to have a major say once again.

Taylor Hendricks looks like a guy who might rise to the late lottery to mid first round range. Plays at UCF but really good shooter at 6’9, versatile defender and good athlete. Could be a nice combo forward. Reminds me of Trey Murphy from 2 drafts ago the way he built up his draft stock. Same general profile. Big 3&D potential.

BigDaddyG wrote:Is this what Isaac Okoro would've been if he ever learned how to shoot? Thanks for this heads up. Been watching his highlights. Seems like a big bodied 6’7. Want to check that wingspan. Uber athletic and yet seems to be lacking some conditioning. Coming off injury that makes some sense. But I think by the tournament this guy is going to be in beast mode. Probably going to put himself above our draft stock. At the moment, absent a pure lotto talent, I think this is the guy. I see closer to Kawhi than any other comp. With some clean up of his foot work and an NBA level training regime, he looks like an elite 3&D. Downside risk is that he puts too much weight on that frame and faces injury risk and slows down further. But I see a next gen guy with McBride/Grimes/Whitmore/Sims. You know I gonna spin wit it
