Solid prospect. 10 would definitely be a reach on him though. Most mocks him going 17-20 range. He's also one of the older First Round prospects at 21 years old. We'll see what he looks like during scrimmages at the Combine.
He is not that old as he is a junior, basically think if Jabari stayed 3 yrs in college he'd be older than Fleming at this point. Being 1 yr older than Sheppard but having 3 yrs more experience and devt is a win I think. I am just curious if the 7'5 wingspan is true, I doubt he slips past OKC if true.
Maybe the age thing is why he looks so much better. I just have not been impressed by many prospects this year. If his shooting is legit, he looks like an NBA rotation guy.
Although I prefer swinging for star potential, He looks solid and has a lot of tools to work with to get minutes for a role. Might be a later pick but I'd be okay with it
I want to move up in this draft(10 and Jalen to Charlotte for 4 to pick Edgecomb). But I would also be ok moving back with Fleming as my target. Maybe 10 and 59 to Brooklyn for 19 (Fleming) and 27 (Clayton)?
I need to see speed stats like 40 yard dash numbers. I know as soon a he gets to Houston that shot is going to depart. Y'all told me Jabari was elite 3 and D and I still haven't recovered from that lie.
Add 0% increase in strength for the first 3 years. If Adams was a bit more mobile we could've won. I'll take my chances drafting a defender than a 3 point shooter from the draft.
it’s true they measured him at 6’8 1/4 height and a 7’5 wingspan at the combine. Plus he’s a shooter and we need shooters with Amen and Sengun
I took inspiration from the Sengun and Tari posts. it made me realize the Rockets have hired people who read clutchfans to take inspiration for their draft decisions. and I’d love to see Rasheer in a Rockets jersey
Tbf Rockets have completely mismanaged Jabari, he struggled as a rookie but if he needs more catch and shoot opportunities next season
I prefer swinging for star potential or BPA, but as a later pick he looks like a solid rotation player if we perhaps trade down. He has a lot of tools to contribute.
