Cody Williams healthiest 11 game stretch early in year of 24 he played he averaged 16.5ppg on 61% from the field and 56% from 3. His injuries were pretty significant especially the ankle at the end he shouldn’t have played on and slowed him down but he had much success as an underweight freshman and he has very good physical tools and the blueprint for NBA success from his brother I disagree with the idea he has high bust potential
He is like every average player on this list this year, i see maximum 6 players can be someone on NBA: sarr, shepperd, buzelis, Holland, dillinghan,clingan. Castle has no shoot, collier looks like average player,edey is to weak on nba, mcain Has only shoot worse version of huerter, risacher will be disaster i dont understand how can be that high i see how he play he is tall and Has good balance that's all no spacing no atlethcism, average defend, no efficient he is max 10 on this draft
Definitely see the reasoning behind Salaün being a reach for Charlotte but as a fan I liked the pick a lot. The new front office Jeff Peterson and coach charles Lee made it clear they were both super high on this kid from the get go and loved what they saw about his work ethic and shot and defensive ability so I’m gonna trust them. He was flying up the boards and was likely getting grabbed in the top 10 anyway imo so I respect the move taking a bigger risk on a raw prospect especially in a weak draft like this.
As a spurs fan the spurs would’ve picked him so them trading down and acquiring him wouldn’t have worked. When yall took him we traded the pick. That’s why it wasn’t announced before the draft. Congrats yall took our pick in salaun like we took y’all’s pick in castle.
There were rumors flying around that the Spurs wanted to take him at eight. I don’t know how legitimate those rumors are, but crazy to think of Wemby and Salaun on the same team if Salaun pans out.
@@Haybud I think that trade being done during the pick proved they wanted either salaun or clingan to fall to them or they’re gearing up for a huge trade
I like the Edey pick. I’m not worried about the paint clog. We had Adams for 2 years and Ja got better. Edey will come off the bench aswell so I love the pick even more. Ja also has been working on his midrange a lot
Yeah seems like he didn't think about the pick and roll. Space created that way. As well as the "Gortat" screen potential. Adams helped Ja and Jaren thrive, I think Edey can fill a similar role. We'll have to see!
Twice you have said Maimi needed a guard or wing. Bam has been an undersized center his whole career but still in DPOY convos. We need a true big to put Bam at PF. Especially against Boston we need Bam on Tatum not wasted on Porzingas. We needed a true center, we can't keep playing small.
@@justinalley3399 because he's been asked to always play center. He would thrive with a true big man next to him. Jockic shouldn't be his responsibility.
@@ethangagnon9346No, hes not a PF because he does not possess a PF skill set. He's a center and yes, a "true" big man. As for Joker, are you under the impression that other centers effectively guard this man? I dont really get this comment but i will highlight that youd probably actually want to go with a PF against Joker. Not that its this simple either way, but for the sake of your concern we can highlight that.
I get the concerns with Edey, but to be honest, Memphis is probably be the best possible fit for him. Also, Ja thrives with a hard screening big man on the court. And on defense if he does get beat from time to time there are guys like Jaren Jackson, Vince Williams Jr. and Marcus Smart to cover for him. Love this pick.
NGL i like the reasoning but the actual grades feel random. Felt like out of the top ten no one was getting A grades just A- even though you really liked the pick. Ik the actual grades aren't that important, but it did feel kind of random and arbitrary as the reasoning didn't always line up with the grade.
I absolutely love the Edey pick the grizzlies need some new man who can run the floor and go along side Steven Adam’s. I’m so glad they got him I loved him in college
Regarding the Hornets pick, unfortunately, I heard they had a deal with Portland to swap pics and get another pick in exchange, but then Woj and his boys decided to leak that the hornets were definitely taking Salaun so the Blazers pulled their trade. Also, Memphis just wanted a straight up swap of six and nine with no draft capital and couldn’t get a deal done. So the Hornets went and got their guy. If that’s the guy they want, I’m fine with it.
@@SiriusBlack-wh6uh That’s y u have trainers to help u bulk up eat more and workout more that’s what Chet KD Victor Giannis Curry and etc that’s how good nba trainers are
Miami in my opinion aleast should be an A since they really needed bigs since their size is not the best against the other teams and he will be able to bring bam to pf, which us Heat fans I think needed.
ive always wondered why they made bam play the 5? Im not a heat fan but theres no reason he shoukd be mismatched (sizewise) every game. I know hes capable but i know hed be a much mire impactful player if he was able to roam
With Edey he will be fine with Ja, especially with the pick and roll. Perimeter defense is still a question but the block on Knecht in the elite eight shows he can move and has great body control when he needs to. Especially with his work ethic, I think he is more versatile than people think because at Purdue he had a role and played it perfectly. He’s efficient and draws fouls without flopping and can imagine him developing into a 15pt/8-10reb a night guy.
Sarr played in Atlanta for a while with OT Elite.. Hawks knew everything about this kid.. No need for a private workout when they didnt like him.. lol..
I’m a die hard hornets fan and watched a lot of film on saluan and i think he has a top 3 ceiling in the draft but im worried about how the hornets will develop him
In terms of TSJ, its All about perspective, if he is not falsely accused, he may just go to charlotte or utah, instead he is going to a Timberwolves team riding a high not seen in over 20 years and we are looking to build on that and expect him to contribute to that right away
If you are going to make the point of Edey clogging up the paint but not mention Steven Adams working successfully in Memphis then your point falls flat.
10:03 Bam isnt a good center but he is a great Power Forwards so Bam move to 4 and Kele were will play at 5 We need a real big man and Kele ware is a great pick up i guess A- my opinion ❤🙏 i need to see Herro trade too😂
I do think Matas would have been the better pick but Ron Holland is not that bad, yes is shooting has questions but if he can develop a jumper and would be a crazy player. He also him and Matas were top 2 picks in early mock drafts but the ignite just didnt care anymore cause the were folding the team
Holland especially does nothing for the Pistons. They didn’t need to add another Defensive minded small forward. They needed a Scoring Wing or an upgrade at the 4.
Agree about Holland but Reed is a really good fit for the Rockets future. He can technically play the 1 but leave the playmaking duties to Sengun and Amen who can also cover for him defensively.
@@SignatureRiff I'm not convinced he's a 1 either which is exactly why he's perfect for the Rockets. They have 2 big playmakers to take playmaking duties off him. FVV is there for 2 more years max and Reed can be a backup until then
as an OKC fan im confused by the pick lol. the dude cannot even play for the year because of injury and OKC are in championship contention. makes no sense to me…. but in Presti we trust
I’m gonna need yall who keep saying this to start saying names because I have no idea who was supposed to be this missing piece of all the guys that were on the board lol. I know everyone thinks DaRon Holmes would come in and be Aaron Gordon in the playoffs as a rookie but that’s just totally unrealistic
@@Flamerunner451 da silva, trade up for edey, mcain is a better rebounder, carter is a much better rebounder. theres some names that wouldve been better fit for NOW. not saying this is a bad pick in the long run. just dont understand drafting a injured guard when there were uninjured player that couldve helped ANY AMOUNT lol. he cant even help the team this year AT ALL im assuming Presti is gonna trade for a PF or C thats already battle tested in the NBA for this year. i mean… i really really hope he gets some size……
@@unkownknob I’m just of the mind that I’m not worried about the perimeter ball handlers and creators we have already on the roster with Shai, JDub, Caruso, sophomore Cason, and Chet with an increased focus on playmaking. I also just don’t think Edey does much for us based on style of play both offensively or defensively and da Silva is good but I don’t think he really fits a need I also don’t think Presti takes exclusively guards in the draft if he doesn’t feel comfortable in being able to get a big wing or big man in FA or trades, like you said. All this just reminds me a whole lot of when people complained for months about us not taking AJ Griffin, I just wish people would’ve learned to be patient at this point
@@Flamerunner451 be patient? OKC was 1st seed last year😂😂 what are you talking about? OKC needs help NOW. the title contention is NOW. not next year, say it with me…. NOW. we been patient for 15 years lmao!!!! you must be a new OKC fan or something. WE BEEN BEING PATIENT any of the players your saying “wouldnt help much” would help 100% more than a injured playmaker that cant rebound OR PLAY UNTIL NEXT YEAR😂😂 what are you even saying buddy?
the fact you were disappointed with leon rose shows your not as smart as you think you are. the knicks did everything they were supposed to do. with everything they did they are putting themselves in a position to resign I hart by saving money in the draft. reloading the war chest with 5 second round picks after trading away as much as we did was a smart play
The problem you have with Zach Edey is wild. Ja played his best basketball with Steven Adams, a guy who can't do much outside the key. Teach Edey how to set picks and crash the key at an NBA level like Adams can, and he's the perfect fit next to Ja. Dude is 7'4, 300 pounds, and can get rebounds at will. I'd agree that there's a risk with how he adjusts to the NBA since he's a very old school build, but when it comes to what Memphis needed from this draft then he was the best option available. A big body, that can get rebounds, and can physically clear the key for Ja.
I agree, SROS has been a Edey hater for the whole draft process. He loves to put Edey on the thumbnail. I'm not saying Edey will dominate but how can you have such a different reaction to Donovan Clingan
With the Edey space issue you have to remember Steven Adams was the same thing while being more limited offensively, Ja was still dominant, these big guys just work with him
As a Bulls fans I loved this pick. I am also very high on his upside, and the bonus fact that he is from Chi-Town just makes him more motivated and ready to put in work. I mean he showed the most emotion out of anyone at the draft when his named was called. Just crossing my fingers that the Bulls don't ruin Matas's development as that would the most Bulls thing ever.
I’ve become more accepting of the Topic pick a day after. He’ll replace the main facilitator of the bench unit role that Giddey refused. The Thunder’s second unit needed play creating, so Topic should help with that. Presti has until October to fill gaps at the starting 4 and backup 5 spots, but free agency is coming soon. We’ll see!
Yeah it's not exciting getting someone who won't play but it's fine. I honestly see it as just getting potentially the most valuable asset they could and I expect him to be traded before he gets extended off his rookie deal.
If other Thunder fans gotta get used to one thing it’s not seeing the draft as the main event for our offseason anymore. We were just the #1 seed, we’re not in the phase of needing to make a huge splash to find the next piece of our core in the draft anymore. The Topic pick was perfect, highest value there at 12 by a landslide with his potential and it gives more flexibility and options in the future
@@Flamerunner451thunder fans are delusion. You’re not a free agency destination team. Drafting Tyler smith , or filipkowshi would have kept you as the number 1 seed. They still need size and rebounding. This isn’t even that good of free agency market
@@mrawesome7175 a whole lot of teams also could’ve picked Flip but he clearly slid for a reason. And the size and rebounding difference isn’t at all why we lost to the Mavs, no idea when people are gonna get that through their heads
Hey Matt I know you’re not a heat fan so you may not see much of it. But Bam doesn’t want to play Center as much. He wants to play his true position as a PF, assuming this is why Miami opted into drafting ware.
Hi! I strongly disagree about Risacher. For sure he will have a big impact immediately. His ability to knock down 3s and to defend multiple possition will be a huge asset for the Hawks. At least he will be a great starter for a championship team, the only question is about his ceiling
Wizards the big winners of this draft for me. Got Sarr, got future picks and also got Malcom Brogdon and Bub Carington. S tier draft. Other winners IMO are Rockets and Utah Jazz. Biggest player winner is Dalton Knecht. Gets to the perfect situation with AD/Lebron/JJ Reddick and to a marquee team like the Lakers.
About the Edey spacing issues with Memphis. In their defense they can have Edey set off ball screens on the perimeter for shooters in order to create defensive rotation
You probably wont respond, but who do you think Orlando should have selected at 18? With Knecht and Carrington out of the board, I think Tristan was the best pick.
Did you forget that Memphis an Ja thrived when they had Steven Adams. Edey can be there new Stevo, plus he's a better scorer than Adams was. Its a win for Memphis imo. Everbodys so focused on what he cant do instead of focusing on what he can do. The Memphis players are happy with the pick, thats all that matters. I cant wait for Edey an the Grizz to prove all there haters an critics wrong. Lets go Grizz Nation!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
You don’t like the fit TDS with the Magic? That’s insane. He’s been mocked and wished by most fans. He’s the perfect Ingles replacement, checks all the boxes!! Ain’t nobody available who would have been a better fit at 18.. Knecht would have been nice, but gone. Walter? We will integrate Howard next season, same role. So i don’t exactly know what you mean. TDS is a A for the Magic

I also think he has some of the highest potential of the draft, if he grows into his body
Cody has top 3 upside in this draft. I haven’t gotten to that point in the video yet but anyone who is wary about him just doesn’t know
How many 3s is he taking
He is like every average player on this list this year, i see maximum 6 players can be someone on NBA: sarr, shepperd, buzelis, Holland, dillinghan,clingan.

With the Edey space issue you have to remember Steven Adams was the same thing while being more limited offensively, Ja was still dominant, these big guys just work with him
I’d personally give Matas an A as I’m very high on him I have him top 3 in this class and the bulls got him at 11 major steal
As a Bulls fans I loved this pick. I am also very high on his upside, and the bonus fact that he is from Chi-Town just makes him more motivated and ready to put in work. I mean he showed the most emotion out of anyone at the draft when his named was called.
Just crossing my fingers that the Bulls don't ruin Matas's development as that would the most Bulls thing ever.
I’ve become more accepting of the Topic pick a day after.
He’ll replace the main facilitator of the bench unit role that Giddey refused. The Thunder’s second unit needed play creating, so Topic should help with that.
Presti has until October to fill gaps at the starting 4 and backup 5 spots, but free agency is coming soon. We’ll see!
Yeah it's not exciting getting someone who won't play but it's fine. I honestly see it as just getting potentially the most valuable asset they could and I expect him to be traded before he gets extended off his rookie deal.
If other Thunder fans gotta get used to one thing it’s not seeing the draft as the main event for our offseason anymore. We were just the #1 seed, we’re not in the phase of needing to make a huge splash to find the next piece of our core in the draft anymore. The Topic pick was perfect, highest value there at 12 by a landslide with his potential and it gives more flexibility and options in the future
@@Flamerunner451thunder fans are delusion. You’re not a free agency destination team. Drafting Tyler smith , or filipkowshi would have kept you as the number 1 seed. They still need size and rebounding. This isn’t even that good of free agency market
@@mrawesome7175 a whole lot of teams also could’ve picked Flip but he clearly slid for a reason. And the size and rebounding difference isn’t at all why we lost to the Mavs, no idea when people are gonna get that through their heads
@@Flamerunner451 lol if that wasn’t the reason what was then?? Because 6,2 kyrie was having his way in the paint against the Mavs?
Hey Matt I know you’re not a heat fan so you may not see much of it. But Bam doesn’t want to play Center as much. He wants to play his true position as a PF, assuming this is why Miami opted into drafting ware.
Who watched the whole stream ?
I watched 16-30 which is when I realized he was streaming
Me!!

Hi! I strongly disagree about Risacher. For sure he will have a big impact immediately. His ability to knock down 3s and to defend multiple possition will be a huge asset for the Hawks. At least he will be a great starter for a championship team, the only question is about his ceiling
Was Steven Adams not in the paint lol?
Jazz getting Collier, Williams and Filipowski is insane.
@@almate06 shoved it in his peehole?!?!?!
Sorry for missing stream was watching deep 3 stream
Wizards the big winners of this draft for me. Got Sarr, got future picks and also got Malcom Brogdon and Bub Carington. S tier draft. Other winners IMO are Rockets and Utah Jazz.
Biggest player winner is Dalton Knecht. Gets to the perfect situation with AD/Lebron/JJ Reddick and to a marquee team like the Lakers.
This starting to age like fine milk
About the Edey spacing issues with Memphis. In their defense they can have Edey set off ball screens on the perimeter for shooters in order to create defensive rotation
anyone know what the clock thingy with the finals score in his bg is or what it's called?
I’m still confused by the Avdija trade. Their defense would’ve been awesome
You probably wont respond, but who do you think Orlando should have selected at 18? With Knecht and Carrington out of the board, I think Tristan was the best pick.
The Zach edey hate is so weird. Ja has always had post centric Centers. Hes NEVER had a non post centric center. Vala then Steven Adams now Edey.
Did you forget that Memphis an Ja thrived when they had Steven Adams. Edey can be there new Stevo, plus he's a better scorer than Adams was. Its a win for Memphis imo. Everbodys so focused on what he cant do instead of focusing on what he can do. The Memphis players are happy with the pick, thats all that matters. I cant wait for Edey an the Grizz to prove all there haters an critics wrong. Lets go Grizz Nation!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I had a similar thought you’re a smart guy
You don’t like the fit TDS with the Magic? That’s insane. He’s been mocked and wished by most fans. He’s the perfect Ingles replacement, checks all the boxes!! Ain’t nobody available who would have been a better fit at 18..
Knecht would have been nice, but gone. Walter? We will integrate Howard next season, same role.
So i don’t exactly know what you mean. TDS is a A for the Magic
Sarr is so overrated OMG
Hawks are backed up on Bigs thats why Sarr didn’t go
