He’s nowhere near Tari lol, eye test is enough “Here lies a 6-foot-5, 217 lbs low-turnover, dribble/pass/shoot wing who can handle pick-and-rolls. That's a player every single team in the league covets, so what could hold him back from being a lottery pick? Knueppel came into Duke with major athletic concerns, and he certainly hasn't made NBA decision-makers feel any better in his time at college. He's an extremely subpar NBA athlete, with all-time poor athletic and physical indicators as of right now. He currently has a 2.6% offensive rebound rate, 0.3% block rate, and 1.7% steal rate, while shooting under 60% at the rim and throwing down one dunk in 12 games. Simply put, he isn't good laterally (steals) nor vertically (offensive rebounds, blocks, dunks), and doesn't have a lengthy wingspan to offset either. The integration of those three makes for a really difficult translation to the NBA.“
to me Kon has some of the most translative skills to the pros. Elite connective passer, excellent ball handler, elite processor, elite shooter. And he was a good college defender with a good motor. He’s strong and won’t be a liability on defense. On offense he can fit into any system and be effective with or without the ball. Athleticism can be overrated. We have a ton of athletes that can’t shoot on our roster. Kon brings balance we sorely need.
He's shown the ability to play best on the biggest stages against top comp...a crunch time player. I like him, but see him dropping due to size. If, for some reason we deal this pick and come away with a late lottery pick... Definitely.
The athletes led the team to a 2nd seed. Nah we should get a guy with some athleticism but can also shoot like Tre Jones or Jakucionis.
LOL wait for draft combine measurements. 7'5 wingspan? So he has the same wingspan as freaking Khaman Maluach? He does shooting from catch and shoot, we need somebody who can be a POA guy and make shots off the dribble.
Just watched Jeremiah Fears highlights and was blown away. This kid looks like Kyrie Irving’s twin brother. His moves are nba superstar like. We need to do whatever it takes to get this kid. CBS has him going to Rockets at nine, but looks more like a 5-8 pick. Never been more impressed with highlights. He’ll end up being the steal of the draft!
So people actually believe you should draft based on who has a good performance in the NCAA tournament? That's... one way to do it.
I'd take this in a heartbeat, even without the second rounder. Tre is a MUCH better shooter than Cam and fits out team better.
I like Tre a lot, but yea other teams will have to play ball since he will be right after 4 but before 9 lol, but I'm down for Cam and 9th for Tre consolidation trade. Tre is just a much better fit and a real, efficient shooter.
Jump shot looks good, I'm surprised at the low 3pt% but I'm guessing that will improve since he's got a nice form and free throws are high percentage. I wouldn't be upset if he's there at 9.
Fears looks like he'll be top 5. I dont watch college but youtube channels I watched said he carried his team against tough competition and Kyrie Irving/Cp3 comparisons were there.
WCJ was one of the top performers in the shooting drills today. I found the stats here: https://www.nba.com/stats/draft/combine-shooting-drills?SeasonYear=2025
