Mack and Jack

[PhilaPhans]

Any chance for either to get drafted?

Any chance for either to play in the NBA?

Any chance for either to get on some NBA Summer League squad?

Just trying to see whether you guys think their future is here or abroad.

They're going to have to play abroad if they want to continue.

I'm sure Daleep has been on top of getting their passports up to date, which they will need very soon. Kadeem may have a foreign passport? Which would be very $$ for him, as he won't count as an American in some countries. I'm sure they will get some workouts with NBA teams, with their proximity to teams in the Northeast corridor looking to fill workout spots.

Myles Mack is a hell of a player and I recently had the chance to thank him in person for playing at RU. His passing this year was a whole new facet to his game that was really enjoyable to watch.Nonetheless,if you look at the NBA their is only one successful player at his size, nate robinson.

On the Knicks we have Shane Larkin, and his size really limits his game. I think he'll play overseas but from what i hear, playing overseas can be pretty tough. He choose RU for a reason and that was to play d1 ball and to give his parents a chance to watch him. Regardless, he'll play somewhere. Probably overseas.

Kadeem Jack i could see ending up on a D league team somewhere. D league, overseas, and maybe one day in the NBA. He could use some weight to contend at that level.

Just my thoughts. I wish the best for both of them.

I think Jack's better days are still ahead of him. It wouldn't surprise me if he earns a NBA roster spot a few years down the line.

Unfortunately, I believe Mack is just too short for the NBA.

There are a lot of good basketball players out there. Jack was a chance of playing in D league games. Between Mack's height and lack of lateral quickness he shouldn't pursue a professional basketball career.

Might have a chance to make a few bucks overseas , NBA very doubtful and the NBADL league's money probably isn't worth
passing up a possible bigger payday overseas .As for basketball career, a lot on non NBA talent made a good living playing overseas, but can't say if Myles would be able to be another that can do it.

Grg, you're kidding me right? You don't think Myles Mack is that good? You do know he has spent his whole life preparing for a basketball career, came from the worst town in the state.

To say he shouldn't continue to play basketball is negating where RU basketball players come from. Many of them-basketball is their life and way to get out of a certain area.

His defense, sure not great. He can still contribute a ton, and has contributed a ton. Say something about his defense, but remember to include how he was 3rd on the team in rebounds per game at 5 10. And was a great passer.

If we had two players on our team that could play in the NBA we would have won more than 2 Big Ten games.
