Cool. Pretty solid potentials from my rooks, hope they reach it. Glad and satisfied with the outcome of our trades.

Sotto sure impresses the most but Tsalmpouris is a keeper for sure. Liddell should come in with some minutes while waiting for his development. Houstan and Okeke are nice prospects to develop as well. Overall, a good haul i suppose, pretty excited lol

Sheppard looks as advertised. Can't wait until TC to see what he looks like after. A +10 boost would be nice too.

Damn Wemby is raw. I really like Suggs too. Everyone else is shockingly raw. Excited to see who ends up standing out of this draft class.

Wemby looks scary raw but I’m sure he will get a huge boost in training camp.

Kai Jones is already one of the best low post scorers amongst rookies in this class, and a very solid shot blocker but he's incredibly raw. Probably gonna sit him for a year, we'll see. Bright future though.

This is a very raw class overall, but lots of guys who has room to grow which is cool to see.

Really happy with Brown considering he was #22. Looks like he should be a decent scorer and strong on the boards.

Ziaire Williams is about what I expected. Very raw and unlikely to be a difference maker for a bit but if he fully develops, is a perfect starting wing next to Jovic.

My other strong conservation at my pick was Yago and he looks great.

Overall a very very raw class. Not the biggest fan of Cade. Definitely don’t think he’s a point guard.

Yeah too many raw prospects but a deep class imo as some of the 2nd round picks has the potentials to be a likely 1st round talent.

Sochan looks to be most talented of them all just don't talk about shooting lol

Just what my scouts said about Wemby, makes me think he's not really the best prospect in the draft. Suggs, Keegan, Sheppard, Brown, Mouhamadou, Cockburn, Yago, and Kai Jones impresses me the most.

I think the more raw prospects the better as we shouldn’t have certainty when drafting players. There should be a legitimate chance of being a “bust” or just not reaching the ceiling on potential.

I agree, I think the class was a great ix. There were plenty of ready now talents available too.

100% agree that it's great that rookies are raw. It also slightly deflates the value of 1st round picks as they aren't gonna contribute for at least the first half of their rookie contracts. As for our pick, I have high hopes for Mojave King!
