I honestly think Simmons, Ingram and Murray are tied for number 1 right now
Simmons has the highest ceiling and Murray the lowest but Murray may be the best player of the 3 right now.
Depending on tourney performances, pre draft work outs and measurements will show which one will pull away. This is all my opinion, as far as general consensus goes your mock seems more on point.


As far as the tournament goes I got 3 Big 10 teams in the final 4. Indiana vs Kentucky winner will prob go to the final 4.

hield, sabonis, jones way to high.

1.. It's March.

2. Hield I feel has an inflated stock but will go high because of shooting. Sabonis is WILDLY underrated.
Jones I put there because Utah could use more big man depth

Ya Jones is trash. Has NBA body but he just plays like a bytch

Man i just realized filling out a bracket Duke has an easy road to the sweet 16th

I think so too. Zimmerman is better (though he has no business entering the draft as I feel UNLV could be really good next year if healthy), Stone is better, Hammons could fill a niche better than Jones, even Zubac has more upside

Bender has been real solid in Israeli league. His three point shooting is starting to become consistent and he always has had good bball instincts, length and excellent mobility to go with the length. He is incredibly physically weak by NBA standards tho, not sure he will ever be able to be any sort of interior presence. He may turn out a bust but I love his potential. In this weak draft he may turn out the best player of all. His all around passing, shooting potential, shot blockin are all excellent skills in today's NBA

I have Bender atop my big board, but it's gonna take him time and he's gonna have to come to grips with the fact that he's gonna be too big to do the shyt he wants to do most of (shoot threes and basically play SF)

He'd be great in Boston because they can afford to wait.

Post the big board breh
I love Bender but like u said he has a long way to go and most people haven't seen him a lot so whoever drafts him Will prob catch a lot of heat early

I don't love Jaylen Brown but he gets to the rim at will in college. He has gotta be on there. I really like Zubac. Draft sites have Zizic over him and his team plays Zizic ahead of him but from what I've seen I like Zubac a lot more

Oh and I don't care what anyone says. Valentine is going to be terrific, he is completely dominant in the college level. He looks like LeBron with a three point shot. Not saying he will be that in the NBA but compared to college players. He is 22 but that's not too old for a senior. AJ Hammons and Gary Payton II for example are both more than a year older. Chris Boucher is another slept on prospect but Valentine is about a year younger than him as well

 

[Poitier]

Valentine is Danny Green at best.
