Actually put the g-league on his list. He ain’t going to college.
I agree. I think we could see several more this year and then it’ll really depend on how those players fair if this becomes a continued fad.

For those of you who have seen Kuminga play a decent amount: Do you think Kuminga would be a better wing than Boston or Clarke next season? Do you think he would be a better rebounder and defender than Jackson or Ware next season?

Well he does have a brother playing for TT next yr. So good chance there or G-league. hopefully G-league doesn't do well.

Better Wing than both, probably yes. Better rebounder defender than Ware yes, not sure about Jackson.

Agree if the G league is throwing around 250k to other players I will say he will be offered double that. Either GL or TT is where he’s headed. Bank on one of those two choices

Thanks. I only remember watching Kuminga once a few months ago. He looked about 6'8 and pretty strongly built for such a young kid. But he didn't seem to have really developed wing skills, especially outside shooting. But, like I said, I only watched one game.

Let's see he has Duke, Auburn and the G-League on his final list. And he just cut L$U. It's obvious he wants to make some money if he's not going to play with his brother at TT. He ain't coming here.

Tbh The Patrick School sucked this past year and he had no help compared to previous years. Plus he battled ankle issues all year. He was sidelined a good portion of the year. But make no mistake this is the same dude that basically molested Jalen Johnson in front of K in the EYBL. And had I believe 3-4 40 point games in the EYBL and like 10 games of 30+. He’s not a perfect prospect but he’s definitely the best probably not named Emoni Bates.

I have no real ties to this recruitment, but I’ve repeatedly been told G-league. I posted that several weeks ago and someone mentioned age requirements. I dont know anything about that, but fwiw- continue to hear G-league.
Yeah, but he would make more money at Duke.

I would love to get Kuminga. I don't know if it would really be the best fit for him though. Probably would thrive on a team with more shooting. Gonna be hard to dunk on everyone with 3 guys parked in the paint.
