    Wiseman got dunked on by Mobley 3x when Mobley was a junior and Mobley looked like the better player in that game.

    Wiseman probaly was smoking something he shouldn't. He was the Warriors hope, he left them with empty hope. There are too many 7 footers that have come up empty.

    That would look ugly on defense and on the boards.

    By the time Mobleys body catches up to the league, Green will already be scoring 20+ ppg.

    Jalen Green and Kevin Porter Jr would kill teams...It would be our version of the splash brothers! Both can get to the rim with ease, shoot the 3...pick your poison!

    I'd have concerns about defense and passing but these guys are so young if they want to learn it they can.

    Almost any starting NBA guard would hit stepback 3’s in the G League.

    Without the sniper-like shooting, more like the spray brothers.

    wiseman was being talked about as a potential number 1 pick last year. And would have went number 1 if the wolves didn’t already have KAT.

    big men especially in the American game are taught to just get by on their athletic ability. Not saying Mobley is another wiseman, but nbadraft.net has mobleys intangibles rating ONLY at a 7/10. Usually when a propsect is rated high in intangibles it shows how much they individually contribute to winning. Which is why harden and Luka both had a 10/10 and pretty every great player currently playing now grades out high in intangibles on that site. That’s the rating I look at when I’m trying to find the next great player

    Yet he's doing it now before he's even a rookie...
