    He was in the draft as a sophomore, but recently yanked from the draft to go to Memphis and play his junior year in college.

    His chances to make the league have to be pretty close to none, considering he'll be 24 by the time of his 2023-24 season and as has only displayed 2 underwhelming seasons on a bad team.

    I'll throw this out though, a player people I think people should see a bit more as a candidate for our #17 pick is Moussa Diabate, a big who can move his feet like an athletic wing defensively, which we could really use If we plan on having Banchero and Sengun long-term.

    Such physical attributes, and I not in the NBA yet. Bruno had that same raw talent.

    I'd like to buy a 2nd rounder for him and send him to the G and see what he can do.
