I'm not that high on Kon, but he was impressive without Flagg today.

He’s a serious playmaker (kind of reminds me of a poor mans Luka to be honest) but doesn’t have the athleticism to justify a lottery pick.

Damn. This kid is such a good high end connector/complimentary piece. He's is sneaky good all around player. And his IQ is elite.

Flagg is the grand prize but the other 2 Duke lottery picks are going to be good players also, there center is really impressive

Malauch is well ahead of most players of the “raw” prototype but not what the Pels need. He’s best served for a team who has the luxury of stashing him to develop.
KK is fricking incredibly poised for a freshman and has maybe the highest basketball iq I’ve ever seen but still he’s an nba bench player due to athleticism. That said god damn he’s a good college player, it’s insane he’s just a freshman.

Wonder if KK can be had as a 2nd rounder. I think someone will gamble and take him in the mid late 1st.
A backup wing (at worst) that can do it all offensively, but will be a defensive liability? You can find 20 minutes a game for a guy like that.
If you can find 4 plus defenders, you can make it work as a starter. He's that gifted

I've seen a few mocks putting him at 10, I've seen some in the 20s, that's why I ask. I don't think most people know quite yet, but after tonight I think it'll be top 15. He's worth a gamble if all the other options are gone.

He’s 100% in the lottery and has been for months
If he dropped in the second round he either had a catastrophic injury or punched a baby

If we dropped out of the top 5 it would be hard for me to pass him up. I love Maluach and he would give us the big center that has athleticism we have been searching for. Missi has been better than I thought but he’s still pretty thin even though he’s 6’11”. There are other good guys in that range like Jakucionis, Edgecombe, Johnson, etc. but the way KK has played lately has been incredible and he’s knocked for a lack of athleticism but he makes up for it with his nonstop motor and energy.

Yea, I think we can cross him off the list.

Dude is a bench player in the NBA.
Great college player, and most likely great overseas player.
NBA is too fast and athletic for him unfortunately.

He has size and athleticism, as well as a decent shot. That package could help most rosters. There is no silver bullet for the Pels, sadly.

Surprised no one’s mentioned Jeremiah Fears as an option. This guard class is so deep the pels would have to be drafting pretty low to start looking at Knueppel
He’s definitely a lottery pick there’s just much better prospects to like

Fears is a bit of a project. Right now he's a poor shooter, not great at the rim, and has poor assists to turnover ratio with an incredibly high usage rate. Not to mention he's slight which will be problematic on the defensive end.
He has a lot of skills you love but it's going to take him time to put it all together. As an NBA prospect his ceiling is relatively high but his floor is low.
