Good thing about cole is that he is known for his pesky D despite his size

Just like dad. He also got them long arms.

Would playing in NY be too much of a distraction for Cole seeing that his from NY? That's a lot of pressure for a 19 year old.

RJ is in a similar situation. While not a "New Yorker", RJ spent a lot of time there and has family from the area (his mother's side). I think Cole is similarly built. Heck, his father played here. Only time will tell. I hope we get the opportunity to find out.

Lamelo got a triple double last night. Looks like hes finally settled down.

Looks smooth. I'm not thrilled with the crazy off the he dribble threes are the defense, but the passing and dribbling are legit. I don't know what Lavar is doing behind the scenes, but he has been relatively quiet so far.

He is more skilled than Lonzo...I need to do a little more due diligence on him before I declare him as the number 1 pick, but he has it all. Length, shooting range, vision, handle, one on one ability, seems to be a willing defender..He got the goods.

Another guy to consider if we get a pick in the late lottery, mid-first round.

I bet Mannion goes in the 4-7 range. He’s a poor mans Trae young in a lot of ways. His lack of size is not much of a factor anymore. We should consider him if we don’t land a top 3 pick.

I still need to see more. The plus side is that he's finishing at the rim and he can organize in the halfcourt. But I'm still not sure if gets enough separation off the dribble at the next level

Every time I see one of these highlight videos, the more of a fan I become of his. He seems to be a PG that can score and not a scoring PG (if that makes sense)....and doing all this against grown men.
I wouldn't be upset if the Knicks happen to select this kid at the upcoming draft.

Makes a ton of sense...Ball is playing against grown men, but most are players who aint good enough to play in the league, or older players who's NBA playing days are over (Aaron Brooks). But with that said, if he's a top prospect, he should be dominating the comp and its what he's doing. He's very intriguing.

The competition isn't the best, but it's not the China league. Some of his games have been real impressive. He's had some stinkers, but that's to be expected. He is very intriguing. The league will probably send him to the warriors.

Watching Oklahoma/Missouri. He's an SG, but Austin Reeves for OKC looks like an interesting prospect. Whats stsnds out IMO is his anticipation, burst.

Anthony Edwards dropped 37 on Michigan State today. 33 in the 2nd half on 7-16 from 3. Scoring that many pts against a Tom Izzo team aint easy....BTW, dude is 6'5 225!

Amazing performance, and some of those passes WOW
Knicks do need a player who can break down his defender easily, space floor, and close. Anthony would be perfect

The Stepien compared him to Wade and Tyreke Evans. He's got a unique build, almost like a taller Marcus Smart. If his outside shot keeps up, you gotta consider him with #1 overall pick.
