Yeah, kid has a ridiculous skill level, biggest hole in his game now is supposedly 3pt shooting and shot selection but he's also playing pro ball against men.

He looks head and shoulders better than anyone in the 2015 HS class, and Josh Jackson is the only one on the same level as far as skill goes in 2016.

His footwork is pro level :mindblown:


I'm about to tweet Michigan coaches his reels :russ:

Not interested in Capela?

That Ukrainian kid looks special, always wondered why White Americans can't play like that, shyt makes no type of sense.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
I was getting worried at first about the Euro kid and his reluctance to go to the hole. Later on, he showed he wasn't afraid of contact.

He'll get even more explosive as he gets older too, which is crazy.

Some have the athleticism, they just forget the handle.

That Grayson Allen kid is athletic, but no handle, same thing with Budinger. The Euros have the handles but lack the athleticism, seems like they may be changing that though with Hezonja and this kid both having handles and athletic ability to match.

Lombardi Trophies in Allen Park
The world is starting to catch up, outside of Exum the Aussies got this kid in the pipeline -




He'll be at next years Hoop Summit.


Dude doesn't even look like he's trying and he's balling out there. :dwillhuh: Like George Gervin was.

That one play at around 1:32 off the block to convert it to a dunk shows some great instincts and feel for the game.

Like Exum, his father is an American who ended up playing in Australia's pro league, these former journeymen stay producing players better than themselves :russ:

When is hezonja going to come over tho:ohlawd:


I'd guess next year since there don't seem to be a lot of quality wings in that draft. He's up to 6'8" now and looks like a really athletic Gallinari.

Not sold on Capela. Sew his @sshole closed and keep feedin em and feedin em and feedin em...

Towns though, he aight :obama:


Capela is a long term project, the tools are there though.


What is Towns going to play in College? Is Cal going to allow him to run around on the perimeter and masquerade as an SF, which seems to be his ultimate goal....Or is he going to play the 5 like his height would dictate.

And no love for Brandone Francis? :mjpls:

He's gonna play the 5 til he hears that crowd and he's in that zone and he hears the noise that has ruined many a baller

Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

And in that moment he will go from Karl Towns, prototypical center of the future, to a 7 foot Nate Robinson.
