In some lineups he can play the 3, but his best chance to hit his ceiling is at 4 imo
I talked with a kind of french scout on twitter about this comparison, he sees Risacher with a big upside if he works on his handle, better defender and off ball player than MPJ for him but without the volume of shoot MPJ has.

I've watched him. I spend a good bit of time watching every prospect i consider for my board and try to avoid as much 'expert opinions' and advanced metrics until after I've watched myself... that's just how i do it.... but, understand that its still early and there's alot more to see and there are quite a few players i haven't seen yet. I've only really looked at about 40 guys so far

ESPN Sources: The NBA is still working on final sign-off from the Players Association, but the 2024 NBA Draft is preparing to move to two days – June 26 and 27 – in Brooklyn. Wednesday for the first-round picks and Thursday for the second-round.
Weird, I don't see the point of that.
Man, Adam Silver is a font of terrible ideas. No one cares enough about the SR to tune in again. Why the eff are you forcing players who thought they'd go in the FR to wait for their fates?
Ratings for Day 2 of the Draft are going to be ing terrible tbh![]()
i dont see the value in splitting it. this isnt the NFL draft
Day 2 of the NBA draft will still get better ratings than June baseball.
Do you know where to get college film?
Or is it not available like a lot of college football film
They have to be like the NFL, apparently.
I don't. I just search for it online like the rest of us. I probably have more time in my day to spend watching it tham most, but i have no special resources here.
6’3 SG who’s been filling it up lately. Shooting 44% from 3 on 7 attempts/per. Impressive. Turns 20 next month.

Despite some questions to this draft, there are some sweet shooting numbers so far.
Wasn't there talk recently about adding a third round to the draft? That would put 60 picks on day 2 (rounds 2 and 3), enough to fill a decently long TV special.
That would also be a good reason to split it up; 90 picks in one night is too much for the NBA.
Though adding a third round would probably require some changes to how the G-League works, to give teams more control over those rosters too.
he played next to All-Star Dragic at Eurobasket and was the best player on the floor by miles. That was an easy call, but fat americans thought it won't translate because he can't jump as high as Shaedon Sharpe
I agree. In todays game you probably want two 6'9" guys at what was once the the "3" and the "4". One has to be able to guard the SF though, and one/both need to be able to space. I think this guy or Matas (with the later pick) fit the mold quite well, and would be good complements to Sochan. Add to that Wemby who over time will probably quarterback the offense from the post ala Joker and Embiid, and damn that is an interesting front court.
thats fine. that was your evaluation of the player based on what you saw him do, not something abstract like "pluck any old guy off the street in slovenia and he's going to be a great playmaker"
What were the skinny Americans thinking?
It's brilliant. We are so "trade deal" obsessed these days, and there is always so much movement in 2nd round to the point its hard to keep up. Not to mention its a way to remind fans of prior deals that netted a particular pick -- we get 4 chances to be reminded of the Richardson deal!!
have you ever been to Serbia? Every Serb is a good shooter. I'm not saying they genetically superior, I'm saying it's the main culprit of their basketball culture. That means you learn how to shoot at a young age and everybody will teach you the proper shooting form. They lights out shooters, which is why I'm not worried about Topic's jumper. He shoots 85% from the FT line and 52% from 2. It's not like he's one of these high school kids with a broken shooting form.
