    I don’t watch NCAA. Curious to know why you would pick Dilingham over Sheppard?

    It means if Stone keeps the pick we get to blame him if whoever he picks doesn't end up being the best player available. The fun of drafting.

    For those who just see a white shooter and think JJ Reddick.....Reddick had a 33 inch max vert, Sheppard had a 42 inch max vert.

    They aren't anything alike.

    A silver lining to lower shoulders: his hands will be closer to the ground than someone with the same height with higher shoulders, potentially improving his handle.

    Is Reed another Grayson Allen or is Reed on a whole other level?

    I doubt Atlanta picks white(r) Trae Young to pair with Trae Young.

    Washington at 2 is spicy, but you just need to pray they don't think Sheppard is BPA at 2.

    #3 is probably too high for most of the top 10. :D

    He's 3 years younger than Allen on their respective draft nights.

    I'm really concerned he will go top two.

    I think that’s just group one or one set of guys.

    This is going to be another Sengun situation where people trust the numbers over their eyeballs.
