Meanwhile Bagley will return to Duke because K will tell him he's not ready.

Vanderbilt might have the worst shot I have ever seen in college basketball. There is no way he is the 15th pick. Can you imagine the workouts when they do shooting drills with him?

 

[RoyKent]

Please stop posting nbadraft.net projections....they are the worst by far. Look at anyone else.

This is a waste of time.

9. Knox
11. Shai
15. Vando
16. Hami

Unbelievable...this team might not even make the tourney and we're gonna lose 4 guys.

Not saying it won't happen, but it has never happened since Cal has been here. In fact, we have never lost more than 3 off a team that lost as many games as it will take to miss the tournament this year. Generally speaking, we lose 2-3 guys off a team seeded lower than 2 in the tournament. Those are 2011, 2013, 2014, 2016, which lost 2,3 (one to transfer),2,3 respectively.

[westerncat]

Just do not see 4 guys leaving. IF Diallo is 1st round right now i am Santa !

 

[brianpoe]

AND ALEX POYTHRESS WAS ESPN'S #1 PICK IN A MID SEASON MOCK...


Get off it people, this site sucks ***. Use multiple sites if you are going to quote mocks and even then none of them are correct and will change 20 times between now and the draft.

 

[Fitch44]

I guess I haven’t watched much of Lonnie walker but I think he would go higher than Hami.
NBA values being able to shoot, especially when your position is SHOOTING guard.

 

[TNCatfanforever]

Guys will get drafted due to potential and total number of players available....the one and done has so depleted basketball of talent that is why these guys will get drafted. This is why Cal not signing one of the big three hurts.

 

[katwest]

The more the players see it the more it's on their mind, and it doesn't need to be on their mind.

 

[bcox13]

I will wager $100 and give 5/1, to the first person that accepts my bet, that we don’t have 4 guys selected in the first 16 picks.

PayPal or however you choose to accept. I would be HAPPY to lose the bet, as it would mean all 4 have improved greatly from where they are today.

You can check my history, Ive never made a poor post about Cal or any player to ever play at Uk. I am still hopeful this team keeps learning and gets better. But thinking, as of today, we have 4 of the top 16 players available to be drafted is just dumb

9. Knox
11. Shai
15. Vando
16. Hami

Unbelievable...this team might not even make the tourney and we're gonna lose 4 guys.

If that were to happen I would look for attendance to be the lowest it’s been in a couple decades next season. Many fans are getting tired of NBAU with nothing to show for it.

 

[JulesCamara=GOD]

I don't see a single first rounder on our roster. GM's draft on potential, but all of our guys simply aren't ready for the next level. If these kid's goal is to put themselves in the best possible position for success at the next level, that means gunning for that second contract. They will flake out or end up overseas.

 

[Rupp'sRunt]

Listen if Shai goes lottery a GM/ somebody will get fired. His best attribute is his length but a shot outside of 12 feet isn't in his skill set.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

People need to relax. Just because these guys are in some mock draft doesn't matter jack squat. Cal gets information from coaches and GMs, and they go to the combine. Hami was probably still going to go towards the end of the first round in the last draft but didn't do it. If it doesn't make sense for Vando and Shai, then they won't go. Cal is not going to steer them wrong, or let mock drafts drive their decisions.

 

[FrankUnderwood]

NBA draft.net is about as credible as my 8 year old writing down his predictions with off brand Crayons on loose leaf paper.

Nothing to show for it? Like when?

2017? 32-5 and a last second shot and screw job from a final four?


2016? bad year for UK


2015 38-1 final four

2014 title game

When do you have nothing to show for it?


These vast generalizations are lazy.
