Christian Braun also performing well. He reminds me of Donte Divencenzo. Weren’t the Spurs rumoured to be interested in him in the Lonnie draft?
Wake Forest had two potential first round picks in Alondes Williams and Jake LaRavia and didn't make the tournament. How does that happen?

Manu is there and Pop is in Europe. Hm....just saying.
Not that there’s anything wrong with this but I get major gay vibes with Sochan. Wouldn’t be surprised if he came out a couple years into the league. Him and Keldon would probably start dating if the Spurs draft him.
Having said that I still like him at 9.
Weird but it happens. Washington with Dejounte and Chriss and a freshman thybulle missed the tourny I think, but of course those guys were all freshmen
Clearly Spurstalk has to educate these players on how awful Pop is.
I'd <almost> forgotten about the hundreds and hundreds of shared tweets every draft season that feature a picture of a prospect with a quote underneath that says "it was a great interview, and they're a great organization." I wanna find some twitter account where guys say "please Lord, don't let me get drafted by Sacramento, please Lord please!"
"How about the Suns? Do you like the Suns?"
"... Do they have a draft pick?"
So cool he's there.
He's one of those guys that had "IT".
And game can recognize game...
Hope he has some sage advice for the FO.
I didn't think "candidate blows smoke up a potential employer's ass in hopes for more money" would be noteworthy for the Sniff Crew tbh
He was picked 57. And at his age then, he’d probably go undrafted now.
I remember when he was drafted, I was young and exuberant.
My best friend was straight up from Chicago and now following Kobe and the Lakers because he was like that.
I remember some scout calling Ginobili the Euro-Kobe and I watched some film (less access back then) and I said the same refrain to him and he just laughed and laughed...
He passed before he got to see how awesome Manu was.
Shame. He would have appreciated.
I think it's likely that Keegan Murray could fall a few spots. That would be ideal
There was almost no European Scouting in 99. If there were, he would have been a FRP. Duarte was drafted in the Lottery last year at 23
No he wouldn't. At the time he was playing in the Italian 2nd division with Reggio Calabria, it was after he got picked that his career skyrocketed. RC Buford took notice of him in the U22 WC in Australia in 1997, and began following then. Took a flyer with an almost worthless late 2nd rounder and struck gold, but truth be told it was more luck than anything else. You don't let someone you truly believe in slip to 57.
You're getting your dates confused, likely 1999 with 2002. When Manu was picked he was nowhere near the widely recognized player he became by the time he actually stepped foot in the NBA.
Wow not surprised to see Jalen Williams getting lottery mentions after watching some clips but tankathon has him at #37 in their mock when I looked just the other day though obvs these mocks are super loose right now. Will be really interesting to see if some guys can jump and push back some value to SA.
So you have a Gay-dar?
