nbadraft.net nailed it...

Bio

Position: G
School: Tennessee
College experience: Freshman
Height: 6-foot-4
Weight: 202 lbs
Wingspan: 6-foot-8
Max vertical: 41.5 inches

Strengths

• Tenacious on-ball defender
• Uses his lateral quickness to contain guards
• His strong frame allows him to finish through contact at the rim
• Has the flexibility to play on and off the ball
• Keeps his hands active to create turnovers and deflections

Weaknesses

• Lacks explosive first step to blow by defenders
• Struggles to create his own shot
• Not a proven outside threat; he shot 43.5% from deep on a limited sample
• Needs to improve his decision-making; he had a 1.22 assist-to-turnover ratio last season

Good defender with 43% from 3. 81% from the line. This guy is fine, and only 19. 

He only 2-3 threes per game though

Jared Butler should have been the pick. 

Obviously we drafted him to get Steph curry to come here lol 

 

🤣

Just saying it sounds like a younger version of thybulle who’s less athletic, who spent less time in college and who shot a little better from 3 in his college season

Yup! What I see as well. You hope they move him

Nets might trade Dinwiddie for Kuzma and Pope and they drafted Sharpe and Thomas. 

Sixers got a defensive stopper with offensive upside. 

 

Not for nothing but here was our last 6-4 200 pound SG draft pick

Was a pretty nice draft by the nets picking at 27 and 29. I liked both of those picks. I feel like Thomas is gonna be a nice role player in the nba that can score

he looks like the tobias harris of PGs. Not blowing anyone away with athleticism. But has a good enough handle to go where he wants and his own pace and rise up for a mid range, or creates space with his body with a little post up bump and turnaround jumper.

That’s exactly what I thought.  Move thybulle with Ben?

so, like Tobias Harris.

Funny but also depressing.

Crossed my mind that they might think thybulle could be moved in a deal with Simmons and want someone they can develop into that role 

They were picking 28th in the NBA draft. Of course he has flaws, but seems to be a decent pick that late.

 

Rumor has it that Springer had a bum ankle during his freshman season. (explains the Tobias Harris-like below the rim style of play) for a guy who had a 41'' vertical. 

There may be some untapped explosion he is waiting to unleash this year, in addition to the highlights posted earlier.

Obviously they drafted him to develop into Ben Simmons after we trade Ben Simmons lol
