I believe it was Evan's brother, Isaiah, that worked out for the Cavs prior to pulling out of the draft. I don't believe Evan Mobley or Suggs have worked out for any teams at least to this point. Cade and Green have both apparently worked out with Detroit since they have the first pick. Who knows..the agents seem to pull all the strings. My gut feeling is that Troy Weaver desperately wants to draft Green but there is alot of politics in play in that Detroit FO. I'll go one step further and say Weaver would love nothing more than to get a haul from the Rockets and draft Green at #2 similar to what Boston did in the Fultz/Tatum draft.
The process of waiting for and enduring the Westbrook era, end of Harden, lottery buildup, lottery joy and reading all of Bobbythegreats posts has really taken a toll. Ready for Thursday night and the dawn of a new era. I lean slightly Green but am happy with Mobley. I think all the tea leaves clearly point to Green or a trade to #1.
‘Cause they’re taking Jalen Green. Cade workout for Rockets? Nope, not interested. Mobley workout for Rockets? Stonewalled. Suggs workout for Rockets? Stonewalled.
That is real weird. You'd think those guys would love to workout for the team with the number 2 pick. You'd also think they'd rather live in a warm climate than Cleveland or Toronto. Very strange.
If okc does offer a godfather haul for the 2nd pick, I think bringing in these guys would be important. However Steph never met with the warriors and they took him anyways
I remember this being reported for the Pistons The Pistons hosted Cade Cunningham for a light workout in Detroit on Tuesday, and are slated to bring Jalen Green and Jalen Suggs in for private workouts in the coming days. The Pistons would like to bring Evan Mobley in, but have yet to schedule a visit, sources said. Do Mobley’s handlers just suck?
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/...obley-jalen-green-and-other-top-10-prospects/ 2. Evan Mobley Ceiling: Anthony Davis Stop me if you've heard this one before. Every skinny, mobile big man who can shoot a little bit seems to be compared to Davis, but with Mobley the comparisons are apt -- that is, if he fully develops his burgeoning skill set. Mobley can be a Defensive Player of the Year candidate while providing incredible versatility offensively with ball-handling and shooting for his size. When people talk about Mobley as the best player in the class, they probably see a Davis-like future for him. Floor: Taller Larry Nance Jr. There's a world in which Mobley's skills never fully develop, and he ends up as a mobile, athletic big who's a good rebounder, capable of playmaking and ball-handling, but not quite strong enough to be a force in the middle. Obviously Mobley is quite a bit taller than Nance, but he could end up playing more on the perimeter given his slight frame, as a decent 3-point shooter who never truly becomes a deep threat. Sweet spot: Bam Adebayo A versatile, switchable big who can finish inside as well as he can facilitate offense, Adebayo seems like the right kind of projection for Mobley. If he never becomes a true threat from 3-point range and his shot-blocking doesn't reach Anthony Davis levels, Mobley could settle into a career as an All-Star who's more of a 1B than a 1A in terms of being the guy on a championship contender.

Pick ANY player. Every single NBA player has added muscle and strength since they were drafted. Especially players who were drafted in their teens. You have gone full r****d. Never go full r****d.
Stone did say he sees these picks as assets to trade "I definitely think of them as trade assets, too," Stone said. "They are the one thing that are commoditized in the NBA. Everybody values first-round picks, and the better the picks are, the higher the value."
Is the argument that Mobley can't add weight and strength? No. Stop lying and stop making poor player comparisons. You brought this on yourself with the ignorant Giannis comparison.
Of course it is. You are on record insisting that Mobley's narrow shoulders and body type are reasons why he will NOT add weight. No one, absolutely NOBODY, has said that Mobley will gain the exact amount of muscle that Giannis has. Mobley, like Green, is 19, he will absolutely gain more weight and strength. Your pathetic attempts to insist otherwise is an obvious ploy to slander Mobley. You and your feeble alternate realities always come into play when your lies and BS narratives are exposed. Own up to your lies.
I admit I'm biased towards Cade as a player, but I'm angry that he thinks he is too good to work out for us. Mobley, Suggs and Green aren't as good as Cade.
Nope. I've used Mobley's frame as why he won't bulk up like a AD type of player, not the he can't gain strength or weight. You are just so sensitive to any Mobley criticism that you lose your mind and become unable to debate.
