won't get drafted. Only 60 players get drafted, and seems like a third of them are foreign players.

I live close and have followed Trendon since his high school career. I was shocked when he chose LSU. My ex brother-in-law went to high school with him. It always bothered me that Bama would boo him every time they played.....petty. I wish him the best and I do think he will be drafted based on his size and ability, his numbers are pretty good and are not that different from what Ben Simmons put up here and Trendon wasn't fed the ball like Ben was. I know everyone wants him to come back but he will go to the league and will be fine. The same things were said when Ben Simmons left. If LSU is becoming a bball school then we are going to have to live with these players playing a year or two. Wade will reload.

Foolish. His game is no where near where it needs to be. He’s a darn good player but would benefit from one or two more years. Never will get drafted

He stayed 2 years and played hard. Time to go learn from the best coaches in the NBA. Good luck and I hope the right team drafts him.

I thank him for his service and he was a great Tiger and a joy to watch. He'll be a great pro. This draft is stacked, but I can see him being drafted in the 1st.

You are the only one in the world who thinks he’s a rd 1 pick. He will be lucky to get drafted at all

You're pretty stupid no lie.

Declaring for a draft that he won't be drafted in. Sad.

Is it? You don’t have to be drafted to make a team and cash serious checks
