Yeh, Brandon Miller getting patted down by a bench player during player introductions. ing yikes.
If he wasn't Alabama's star player he'd be in jail on $100,000+ bond, charged for accessory to murder. LOL the Tuscaloosa DA not charging him because of Muh March Madness.

Always love Swiss army prospects.
Yeah, Dean on Draft thinks he wasn’t charged because it isn’t serious. Other Tweeps set him straight. How naieve.
I'm starting to get really ing disgusted by a lot of the basketball world. Who keeps getting erased by what's going on? The woman. The woman who got killed. They keep trying to push her out of the frame.
One thing is for sure, if I'm an NBA GM I'm going to be extremely leery of any Alabama players until the coach and the AD are long gone. Primo was bad enough but now you have four heads on your roster go kill someone? that program.
He was my clear no. 3, but given that the Spurs almost certainly won't take him now, an interesting turn of events would be if we end up no. 3 and Detroit or Charlotte end up no. 2. We already know Charlotte doesn't give a F about any of this, given that they're simply waiting for the Miles Bridges situation to quiet in order to re-sign him. Also he's the kind of player Detroit desperately needs, with Ivey improving and Cunningham coming back next season, while they lost Saddiq Bey. So it wouldn't shock me if he's their choice at no. 2 and Scoot slips to no. 3. Still, with so few enticing options at the top, having to rule out one of the better ones really blows.
The bar is so low for charging someone as an accessory and bringing the murder weapon to the scene of a murder seems like a home run accomplice to murder charge much less accessory to murder charge.
Antoine Davis. Guard University of Detroit is about to break Pete Maravich’s all time NCAA scoring record and as a bonus he may also break Steph Curry’s single season 3 point FG made record. Similarity to Pistol Pete he is being coached by his father. Feel good story to balance Alabama nonsense.
Hood-Schifino blew up to lead Indiana over Purdue away. He's a swing player for a run for the Hoosiers to me. Way too erratic so far but has talent.
Waw going one year ago to prove your point. Poster like you are not interesting.
A lot of people were wrong about Davis, that's basketball...maybe you don't understand it.
You think jalen Smith will be a star a few years ago but i'll not refer to that to prove something.
I like the way the net snaps when he hits his shots. Has good rotation on his shot. Signs of a consistent shot maker. He's going to be good.
He is slowing climbing in a lot of mocks..
JHS might be top 10 and I think that's without much controversy, to me. He has more upside than a guy like Cason Wallace and this draft just doesn't have a ton of standouts after the top 3.
His big thing is consistency and he can learn that as he goes. He can blow up during the tournament and cement himself there. That he turned this game in against a heated rival, a top 5 ranked team, at their gym, bodes well.
Jalen Hood-Schifino is pretty good. I've got him in the mid teens just ahead of Wallace. If we end up with a 2nd layer lottery pick he wouldn't be a bad pick up to pair with a Wembanyama, Jarace Walker, Cam Whitmore, or Gradey .
Cam Whitmore should be avoided.
Davis needs to play two more games to get there, and they most likely will lose the next one and be done. of note, there were no three's during Pete's time.
I belong to a third-world country with immense poverty and inequality. But it is horrifying even for me to see an athlete getting away with being an accessory to murder (he literally carried the weapon that was used to kill a young woman while denying that he knew it will be used for the purpose. What did he think? The gun was going to be displayed at some exhibition late night?). And even more horrifying that folks in his corner and deciding upon his playing career are more focused on his future NBA prospects and his college basketball profile than the fact that he and his friends were involved in a murder in varying degrees. Any ethical person or just someone with a sound mind would suspend his playing till a satisfactory response is available on why he was carrying a gun in the first place and at least a suspension even if he is proven to be not guilty of any named crime. But Alabama seems to have other ideas. And then doubling down with a pat-down during introductions? Thats just being shameless and unrepentant. This team is a blight on amateur sport.

Ideally the Spurs should trade that Toronto first next year to get a mid first round pick this year and draft JHS. Hopefully JHS doesn't play well enough to get into the lottery and just falls outside.
Utah should be the target for the Spurs to swap picks with. They have three first round picks this year and no first round picks next year. Swap that toronto pick with one of the Utah picks this year and draft JHS.
I agree with your post. I'd only make one correction: he's not unrepentant, he's gloating. I might have given him the benefit of the doubt on being the most stupid human being on the planet before that, but after watching this, that's no longer the case: he's guilty, he's getting away with it, and he's rubbing it in our faces. He's one sick a$$hole.
With the 3rd pick in the 2023 NBA draft the Houston Rockets select Brandon Miller out of Alabama. Unless new info surfaces that incriminates him he still top 5.
Curious as to Why you think that?
As a slasher, he should be able to pass, but he only has 0.7 ast.
Plus, with his level of athleticism, he should draws a ton of fouls, but he doesn't do that either.
Last but not least, he has an inconsistent shooting form.
As I understand he was doing the pat down from the beginning of the season. So he just continued his normal routine.
Not to make an excuse. He should have not done it but the idea that the woman was killed and it prompted him to do this routine isn’t accurate.
Its a tough charge because he didn’t provide the gun directly. Miller gave the gun to Miles. Who then gave it to Davis and perhaps Miles was the one who loaded it based on these texts.
I believe Miles is charged and I do believe Miller would be charged had he given it to Davis.There, Miles, according to investigators, told Davis: "The heat is in the hat," and "There's one in the head," referring to the gun being present and loaded.
But red flags of course with Miller. I wasn’t interested in the first place but he has played better. Perhaps a wake up call.
Houston and Charlotte, definitely, SA no, Det and ORL unknown. Orlando already has Banchero, and Detroit has young bigs already. He’s not a can’t miss prospect.
