    Adou Thiero sounds intriguing. Anyone watch Arkansas this year?

    Tankathon rating system likes this guy. Almost the 3:1 ratio that I love. The only thing they really don't like is his 3 pt shooting and age. https://www.tankathon.com/players/adou-thiero

    36) Brooklyn Nets
    Yanic Konan Niederhauser, Penn State
    Easily one of the top risers in this year’s class, Yanic Konan Niederhauser used the G League Elite Camp to earn an invite to the official draft combine, where he impressed greatly. As a bouncy seven-footer with peak athleticism and great length with a 7’3″ wingspan, the Nets may find their cheap replacement to current center Nic Claxton early in the second round.

    Yanic Konan Niederhauser is one of the best athletes in this draft, standing 7’0, 243 pounds with a 7’3 wingspan and 9’3 standing reach. He has significant potential as a vertical pick and roll spacer and led the Big Ten in blocks. https://t.co/ioKLqoDJWb pic.twitter.com/YZvsw9DJYV

    Tankathon doesn't like this guy at all. 1:5 negative ratio. Actually a poor rebounder and not really a good defender despite his blocks. https://www.tankathon.com/players/yanic-konan-niederhauser

    One thing to keep in mind: the talent pool is extremely shallow now, post-withdrawal deadline

    It’s only worth it if you can trade into the upper portion - 30-35.

    That being said - look no further than:

    Neoklis Avdalas

    OG type player. I like him in a limited role. I think he's going to be in the NBA for a long time

    Ryan Nembhard

    This draft’s Patty Mills

    His stock has been on a steady rise since the combine.

    Im sorry, why don't we have a second rounder this year? Did we use it in the Deni trade?

    Kam Jones is my new obsession. I saw somewhere (can't find it again) that he lead the NCAA in "points created" and he just sounds like one of those guards you bring in and your team goes on a run - an Andrew Nemhard type. And you can't go wrong with Marquette guys - Wesley was our last.

    Is he the new Jock Lansdale or the new Luke Schenscher?

    I watched every game he played in. He was Arkansas best player on the floor. I’m a huge Razorback fan, this the name Ron B

    he’s improved every year since Frosh year at UK and can guard all 5 positions. Jump shot is not broken. Will improve. Decent handles and will dunk on anyone.

    Plus defender sand as physical as anyone in this draft. I would love this if we can somehow get him in second. Couple of teams have made early second round promises to him

    I'm 99% sure you are talking about Thiero here.
    I would absolutely love getting him to Portland.

    If Essengue is picked prior to 11, I'm a big proponent of trading down with OKC for 15+24. Picking up Thiero at 24 would be phenomenal.
