Before the year I looked at a mock draft that had Naz at 4. Now he’s being selected behind Nicolas Claxton from UGA. Really wish he hadn’t gone :(

No shot he ever would have stayed, but in no way should he have ever left.

We'd win a national title with Naz and Watford in the paint next year and Mays and Javonte running the point.


P.S. frick Reece Davis.

Naz can’t even dribble. Not surprised...

In the G league you get paid money, play better competition, and get NBA style coaching. He can get the same if not better development there that he would have gotten at LSU. Complaining he should have stayed is selfish because you wanted him to play for your team. I would have loved for him to stay but I get why he left.

I was in Austin for the UT/LSU baseball series in feb. I happened to run into a Magic scout in town watching UT and someone. He had seen LSU and I think Tenn play prior week. Dude straight up said that zero LSU underclassmen should turn pro. But he did say that he knew they would with bad advice.

Dude had 3 reps in the bench. That tells you his work ethic

Name one thing bench press helps with in the NBA

Kevin Durant had 0. Kevin Durant was also the slowest person in the sprints in his class. TERRIBLE WORK ETHIC.

Also, to the OP...you saw a TRASH mock draft. Naz wasn't even top 10 in his HS class coming out, so explain to me how the Hell he was that high? The highest he was ever on anything was mid 1st round...guy dropped to mid 2nd round. It's not like in football where he went from 1st to 7th round.

Some of you people don't understand shite

If he doesn’t get drafted they’ve gotta figure out a loophole to bring him back. It’s not right for a guy to go undrafted and not be able to return to school.

Reason #473927 to say f*ck the NCAA

Reid will get bullied down low in the paint.

He isn’t physical at all.

Everyone that gets drafted into the NBA has raw talent dipshit. He showed absolutely zero signs of being an NBA caliber player. Thats how you go from a lottery pick to this.

Then how was he ranked so high coming out of high school? Really odd how some were saying top 5 pick at one point.
