Trendon Watford
Emmitt Williams
JaVonte Smart
None of them are projected in the 1st round of any mock draft I have seen but that obviously didnt stop Naz or Tremont last season.

It really all depends on how we finish. If we finish strong and have a run in the tourney it’s quite possible all three of them leave. Out of those three I would say Watford is the most likely to declare after this season.

Watford is 50/50
Smart is probably gone
Williams seems to enjoy college ball, I could see him staying.
If Williams and Watford stay with the class Wade is bringing in, next year could be a really, really good team imo

All 3? 0%
Williams is gone, had a kid, telling people he's leaving
Watford will leave only if he's 1st round according to family
Smart is coming back, realizes he's still nowhere he needs to be to make next step

If Smart leaves, I doubt he gets drafted.

Williams and Smart aren't going anywhere.

Be prepared to be disappointed on Williams then

Yep. Williams declared last year when he was half as productive.

Trendon Watford - will be a good pro
Emmitt Williams - should come back for another year or two
JaVonte Smart - has no business even thinking about the NBA right now

They would all come back if they were smart. They have areas to improve.

Williams - 80% gone. For the reasons stated in this thread.
Watford - 50/50. Depending on how the rest of this season plays out.
Smart - 20% gone.

They’re all gone IMO
Posted on 2/13/20 at 7:30 am to PhillyFan1994
You will get a lot of hate in here for this thread bc most don’t understand how much the game has changed in regards to pro ball and leaving/returning with the uptick in G league and over seas conitnueing to grow.

I think javonte out of those 3 has the best chance of coming back. 0% they all come back
Posted on 2/13/20 at 7:36 am to PhillyFan1994
Watford: 50/50
Javonte: 80% staying
Williams: 100% leaving

Smart has NBA guard size and he's a savvy scorer, but the poor guy has no suddenness. I think his lack of athleticism (leaping ability and quickness) will keep him from making an NBA roster. I hope I'm wrong because while he does some dumb shite at times, I love his toughness and heart.

Watford is probably gone.
Smart and Williams both wouldnt be drafted imo. Smart just doesnt play good enough defense with his lack of speed along with the fact that he isnt a good 3pt shooter and doesnt pass or handle good enough to play PG in the NBA. It sounds like im talking shite on the kid, but I think he is a good college player that is still improving tbh.
Williams is a 6’6” big man with no jump shot. It wouldnt make sense to me. Neither him or Smart would get drafted if I was a betting man. Watford wouod easily be atleast a 2nd rounder if thats what he wants.

I could honestly see all three coming back.
Smart improved from last year, but still needs to prove he can consistently shoot 40%+ (ideally over 42%) and 34%+ on threes before he can make his way into the first round. He would benefit as much as anyone from another year.
Emmitt’s problem is he’s a tweener, and doesn’t appear to have developed the handles or mid-range and outside shot to project as a 3 or stretch 4, and teams will have concerns with his height. Basically, he’s a traditional power forward with a solid frame and broad shoulders, but he’s only 6’6”. Same goes for Days. Both need to become dominant in the paint and on the boards or diversify their games some.
Watford is a maybe from me. If his listed height is accurate, his game is the most translatable at the next level out of all the starters.
