bulls and celtics keeping a close eye on whitehead. they know deal. i could see him going to the bulls which can be a steal. celtics has too many guards but they're very much interested

Im high on Forbes. He does one thing great right now at a high nba level. I think he can develop a little pg skill. Whitehead needs much to much development I can't justify taking a player who has as many downs as ups despite nice size and some innate skill. His efficiency is just low for consideration. I'd probably pass on gbinjie as well unless the value was in the 40s

Forbes is nice. He's a Steve Kerr type of player the way he catches and shoots. Other than his shooting there isn't much to his game and today's NBA elite point guards attacks the rim which is one of his weaknesses. He's an undersized shooting guard whose defense is skittish and he has a 6'5'' wingspan which is short. Galloway who's a shooting guard is a better point guard than him and that isn't saying much. Whitehead has more upside. He's ambidextrous and handles the ball very well. Keeps his head up with good court vision and a great passer with good point guard playmaking abilities. He's a shooter but i agree that he still needs a lot of improvement and being efficient. He also needs to work on his turnovers too. He attacks the rim and his free throw attempts shows that. He's a great defender with a wingspan of nearly 6'9''. His wingspan is longer than Galloway & Grant and is a better defender than them. He can also carry a team because Seton Hall was off the radar for while until Whitehead showed up. I think he should stay one more year to develop and have the same effect like Kris Dunn did. He can definitely be a top 10 prospect if decides to play one more year.

Excellent post very spot on both players--and I agree with it. Here's where I differentiate on Forbes. His 3 point shooting is so good that it is already an nba weapon. He can learn combo ph while he comes off the bench to play a back up G role His defense is also much improved and he is emphasizing ball handling this offseason. He would be an immediate impact player he has to be accounted for and if you look at our make up forbes creates space for guys like wrotten grant Derrick Williams. He's a weapon and I think you always take a player who is great at one thing( which is shooting)who has good character work ethic etc that's why I love Seth curry as well naturally 6-3 guys need to be balanced with 6-6/6-8 counter parts
