  • After a slow start, Anthony Black has been one of the best players in college basketball, especially at the Maui Invitational. His ability to pass and defend at a high level was always there but the downhill aggression and shooting has made him a confident lottery guy, early in this season. A potential point guard or connector in the best ways.

    As a lifelong Arkansas, I love what we have right now. Anthony Black reminds me of a combo between Dyson Daniels and Lonzo Ball. He moves more like a guard than Dyson and pushes it out on the break like Lonzo. The defense has been amazing and I love how he has stepped up big during Nick Smith Jr's absence.

    I’m was honestly so surprised when he wasn’t getting the same hype that Nick was coming into the season. Dude is a 6’6-6’7 athletic PG. He’s literally the type of PG the NBA is trending towards

      He's closer to 6'8" but yes, he should have had more hype. I guess it's because he wasn't really projected to be a scoring option for us. But he has been.

    He reminds me of a way more athletic version of Kyle Anderson a point forward that can manipulate defenses, solid primary playmaker/great secondary playmaker, switchable defender, with a questionable shot that goes down when wide open. I think he has way more upside than Slo Mo, but Black also has a really high floor. He is a great modern prospect that can be a super special player depending on where he is drafted

    He's really unique, thinking up similar players in recent years I think of Josh Giddey, Dalano Banton, and Dyson Daniels. He's just got a little bit extra in certain areas that those guys don't.

    Ceiling Jrue Holiday / Floor Lonzo Ball
    Has all the tools to become Elite defensively & a Great playmaker. If he can develop his jumper in the league & get it to around 35% from three on solid volume, I could see him potential becoming a fringe all star. All depends on how he develops his jumper & a lil development in his ball handling.

    Very similar to Dyson Daniels. Maybe not got some of the intelligence on D, but seems more polished on O (while he was in the G league). Pelicans got that Lakers pick and wouldn’t surprise me at all after getting Herb and Dyson 😂
