We all know Nez Raid was one and done once he signed but with him not a first round lock at this time what are the chances he actually comes back?

Also unbelievable they don't have Waters getting draft when he is the most complete and explosive PG in the country. His count vision is second to none.

Explosive? He’s an all around solid player but that’s not a word I’d use to describe him. Ja Morant is explosive not Tremont

Tremont's height is really going to be something he's going to have to overcome with absolutely stellar play in order to get drafted. He may have to play overseas or in the G League before getting shot at the NBA.

close to zero

prob should come back. Almost guaranteed to be a lottery pick next year which would mean guaranteed contract 4 or 5 years.

He'll be a g league player next season. Can make decent money, but he could get lost in the shuffle. Far better guarantee to dominate college ball than the g league. If you want to hide deficiencies, you do it college, not the g league. Naz needs to work hard on his post game.

It’s just March 3rd you gotta wait a bit. If tremont and a few others go off in the sec an ncaa tourney their status will skyrocket it happens all the time. NBA scouts love judging players on what they do in March instead of the whole season

Yeah scouts are usually drooling over 5'11 guys who shoot 42% from the field and 33% from 3 in college.

He is a great college player but he's going to need a crazy run in March to move up the boards. He's going to be a huge defensive liability in the NBA at his size.

Only one we need to worry about is Naz. Naz is getting better and better but seriously needs another year at the college level to refine his post shooting and ball handling in the paint. Hope he returns for him and us.

Waters won’t get drafted. Which is why it would be such a joke for him to leave early

Waters will not be back in Baton Rouge next season. After last season it was made clear he wants to play on the next level. That may be the G league or even overseas. But he wants to try and his dad wants a pay check. There is nothing he can accomplish by coming back to LSU another season. He won't grow any taller and his skills are good enough to be considered for the NBA. People refer to his lack of height as a disability, but there's been several players shorter than him that have carved out a career in the NBA. Mugsy, Avery, Nate and Spud all had good careers in the NBA. Playing another season in college won't change perceptions about his lack of height which means all he can do is go and show what he can do in the league. Personally I wish he would come back, I just don't see it happening. Naz could use another year to develop his inside game, but he will get drafted strictly on potential and his skill level for a player his size.

He’s having a great season but he’s probably a late second round pick at best. I still think he’s gone only because his stock will never go higher then what it is right now

Common sense would say both should come back. Common sense has no place in the discussion of kids leaving early

Ask how much of a joke it was for Sampson and Blakeney, both on Chicago Bulls roster
