WCS is awful and will be the worst pick since somebody took Cody Zeller in the top 5.

You clearly have watched minimal Ohio State games. Russell is a top 3 pick.

Zeller wasn't even the worst top 5 pick that year. Remember a guy named Anthony Bennett?

Russel is the real deal man. No way he gets out of the top 3-5.

I think WCS will play a role in the NBA similar to Joakim Noah. Very good player, but not the #1 player in the draft.

That was one of his best games of the season. He isn't that good. It didn't help that Mickey would leave him to try and block a guards shot every drive. Which left him wide open for the put back or oop.

WCS is going to end up being one of those guys who is solid but not grea tin the NBA. People will call him a bust then by year 10 he will be averaging some 12ppg 8rpg and be a solid contributor.

D'Angelo Russell is a top 3 pick. Kid is flat out awesome. Without him, Ohio State is 10 win team right now. Kid has a great IQ and the thing is...he doesnt just score, he rebounds, gets assists and is a true floor general....as a Freshman. Dude just dropped 23 pts, 11 rebs and 11 asst in his last game. Again, without him Ohio State is probably a 10-14 team vs being 18-6 currently.

I think it goes Okafor, Kaminski, Towns, Russell, then Cauley-Stein

Kaminski is 6-10 outside shot run the floor and play big.

Nice player but has no go to move. Can't shoot and needs strength. Plus side is he is athletic and defends the rim.

Yea that was bad in retrospect but Zeller was one anybody could see coming from a mile away. I saw him play like three times and saw he was a soft, clumsy, worthless oaf. Didn't see enough of AB to know he sucked but I have seen enough of WCS to know he does.

He's like a better version of Thabeet. Whatever that means. No offensive moves but can rebound, dunk and block shots.

He's be a productive NBA player but what is his upside? 8 points, 10 rebounds per game?

8 points would be his complete ceiling.

My god. Could Thabeet guard all 5 positions on the court? GTFO of here with that lazy arse comparison. Thabeet could barely run up and down the floor.

Kaminski might not go in the top 20.

This, his value in the NBA is going to be as a stretch 4/5. That will only carry his draft value so high.

Maybe I don't know enough about the NBA draft, but isn't he in a similar mold that Dirk was 15 years ago? I don't think he's as athletic or as natural as Dirk, but he could be a poor mans dirk

Towns looked really good last night. Extremely physical. His ceiling seems really high. If WCS could form any kind of jump shot, he'd be Top 3 IMO.
