Looks like Shabazz is actually participating in all the drills tomorrow. Props to him. By far the highest profile player actually doing the drills.

Lillard did the same thing last year and looked great. Basically cemented him not getting past Portland.

I think these pre draft workouts will help his stock a lot. He's a knockdown catch and shot guy which is basically what these drills are.

Are we getting back on the shabus ? Forgetting about his last season so soon?

Bennett is physical and intimidating I think he can at least have as good of defense as melo this season. I think he's got better ball handling than porter and we can at times play davis at 5. There are good times to do that. I also think he is BPA. Dude can score at will which is something we need. Of course he'd make us better. He was injured some this season and overweight a bit. He emerged as a star with not much conditioning it seems. I see his foot speed improving. We could also play some zoneish defense with ad helping if an opposing sf gets inside. there are some concerns but i see too many positives, I can overlook them.

Eta: he was quicker than college 4s and is very versatile. He played 4 in college because he had their size and a speed advantage. Just because he's a strong physicsl guy doesn't mean he can't play sf. His defense wasn't terrible in college and it probably could have been good if he was more interested in it. He's so talented he didn't need to play d hard tocbe a top prospect.
