This was said about Porzingis, and it never happened, or he couldn't put on enough to reach NBA-level strength. Chet has no shoulders which tells me he'll never fill out the way needs to be effective.

Yep...frame matters.

Skinny is OK on a big frame but he's more like a KD-type. Might be a solid pro but we shall see.

Yeah I don't know how folks who actually watch KD at Texas would ever consider Chet even a similar prospect.

This is wrong, KD played the 4 at UT and while he displayed flashes of perimeter play he was rich man's Lamarcus Aldridge, Chet actually played a similar role as KD but I agree Chet is tier below Durant

Chet has good mobility for his height and great defensive instincts. Best shot blocker to come out in years. Player comparison is weak just because there similar height and body type. 7 fter playing the 4 and doing what Chet does is why he’s widely considered best prospect in this draft and player with highest ceiling

Great assessment!! One thing I always notice is that college rebounding & defense translate to the NBA, Paul Millsap, Reggie Evans, & etc, and Holgrem defense will translate especially in this era, Jalen Durant during the tournament is good talent but the NBA is 5x softer than NCAA ball so Holgrem will be more defense while acclimating to the NBA speed on offense......

Gotta just tighten up that handle if he’s going to play on the perimeter while his body fills in … idk …feels like an injury potential guy for some reason tho ..hope he stays healthy

I'm sorry but...this dude is gonna be a bust. Watching him getting bullied by Memphis told me everything I need to know.

Detroit You bytch Ass nikka
His NBA comparison is Anthony Davis. He's bust-proof as long as he stays healthy.
Who didn't expect this pink bytch to dikk suck the the white boy in the draft class :laff:. As soon as I seen the thread, I knew this pale fatherless fakkit would be here.

Bu bu bu but, @Serious knows me in real life, I'm black. I can quote specific posts from years ago, but can't prove any form of blackness. bytch sit yo pink ass down.

Lame ass fukk nikka. Pretentious fantasy land culture vulture, forever frail flaming fakkit. fukkin embarrassment. I'd beat the interest in caucasian player potential out yo bytch ass. Suicide is your friend and your future, I can't wait to see you reach your potential, pink bytch :scust:.


My apologies to my white posters out here, I hope yall know I really love yall :hug:. @pink bytch/@Gil Scott-Heroin is a fukkin embarrassment. I won't stop dogging this bytch until he jumps off a building.

Chet is very good defensively, so i don't get all the hate about him being thin

Yeah, he's not going to be a guy thats going to defend bulky 5's in the post, but who's really slowing down their offense to continually dump it inside for post ups nowadays?
