Joel Embiid Reportedly Entering NBA Draft

[Malta]

Are you positive about this?

Next year

Okafor isn't the athlete Embiid is, and he doesn't appear to be as tall/long as him either. Their skillsets are similar, Okafor is touted as a highly skilled big but Embiid has more agility and his footwork looks to be elite, can't say Okafors feet look elite right this second.

I see. Next year seems to be a big man draft.

 

[Malta]

Yeah, there are a lot of bigs next year, but Embiid is the crown jewel of bigs, hasn't been a center prospect with all his tools in a minute.

He's a franchise level prospect, elite potential on both sides of the floor.

Injury or not he going #1 Bigs like him dont come around often.

There's also no concrete numbers on just how tall he is, I'm guessing he'll be 7'0" without shoes though.

For comparison, Randle is 6'9" in shoes and you can see how close he & Jabari/Wiggins are in height -

But Wiggins looks like a damn midget next to Embiid

His back won't last....

Wiggins also looks short next to Anthony B got Anthony B looking 6-10...nvm I don't know who number 12 is.

He's declared - certainly surprised he isn't staying.
