You know just as well as me we have to stop using scale weight lets stick to bodyfat...But you also want him to stay above a certain point if he can get down to 10-12 body fat I think that will help his potential longevity....That is why I keep looking at Larry Johnson and Weatherspoon you remember their build they were strong as ox and explosive especially Larry Johnson.
Yeah I know, that’s why I said a real test
Whatever they do at the nba combines isn’t legit
am I tripping or did Zion not do anything at all? I'm not even sure dude is 6'7 285 cat may be 6'5.5 300

Like Tokoto, he's a good defender but Nassir is more athletic. He's also longer and more physical.
He needs a lot of work offensively but that can be taught.

Nope again. Those are the first 3 from google search. Consensus was Phoenix had a great draft.
This shyt is largely a crapshoot and they dont actually know shyt.
I liked Cam Johnson. He reminded me of a less athletic taller Klay as a prospect. Klay developed into the player he is today, can't wait to see how Cam develops.

He's going to Phoenix. Most second round picks who are good nowadays are asked by teams to try not get picked then get signed to a longer structured deal. Have to double check but I think he got 4 years. 2 guaranteed
Edit. Yup
Phoenix Suns To Sign Jalen Lecque To Four-Year Deal
It's a better deal honestly. With the G-League, being undrafted ain't what it used to be.

Yeah obviously taking him at 11 was a reach when they could have gotten him 10 or more spots later, but if they tried to move back again and couldnt find any takers by the time they were up, Im not mad at just taking the guy you really like
Plus there's no guarantees someone else wont take the guy you want early. I had Hachimura and Hayes in the 20s and they went 8 and 9.Bottom line is Johnson is the best shooter in the draft and the Suns were the worst 3pt shooting team last year. If all he does is knock down open looks created by Book, Ayton, etc then that will be very valuable to this team and no one will care where he was drafted.

Yeah he probably got that promise and shut down. Those undrafted promises are better than second round slots because terms aren't structured. I've already linked the article above. He's good.
I agree it is a crap shoot...But shyt at least role with the odds on your side...the suns routinely defy that...The suns are one of the teams where if they would of just followed the majority of mock drafts or sites like draft Express likely would be in a better position.

Plus they likely will pay him. Second round picks don't have guaranteed contracts. Here he does.
And he's going to a team dying for a pg. So he has a shot
