The two guys I like with a high pick are Hendricks Schfino

After that I like seniors trayce Jackson davis jalen wilson and marcus sasser


Jordan hawkins is all over the place but 41 is ridiculous. When he gets to private workouts he will show prob the best jumper in the entire field. He also has a 40 inch vertical. He might need 1 year or 2 for developmental reasons but just like u can’t teach size his jumper is gold
If hawkins has big games in final four watch for a meteoric rise. He never had the 40 point game he’s capable of

For wings I see us going Jones, Hawkins or Whitehead depending on where on the scale of nba ready and potential the Knicks want to go.

Murray and Hendricks are combo forwards again with Murray on the more nba ready side and Hendricks more on the upside but less ready side.

I think I may agree with Caseloads on this one.

Hawkins is someone I’ve been wanting to watch closely and despite his quick release ‘ nice stroke from 3 I’ve been very underwhelmed.

- slight frame
- handle/passing look sketch
- showed up late in both games I watched after lead was built
- doesn’t seem like a tough or gritty player —- kind of 6’3” shooting guard Obi.

Now his jump shot is intriguing and body type/shot kind of remind me of UConn Ray Allen

Not close. I think Poole is a better comp.

Ray looks a little bigger/thicker than I remember but could be the baggy-ass uniforms.

Poole is a good comp - I agree.

Yup, let’s see if he can continue

He’s definitely picking up speed. Keep in mind he’s CAA. So he will be connected to the Knicks during the draft process I bet.

BRIGGS @ 3/26/2023 9:15 AM
Andre Jackson made a lot of money last night to. He looks like the read deal. A Ben Simmons type but he is mentally tough

Really question if Hawkins can/will guard anyone at NBA level and he seems to have a real reluctance to put the ball on the floor.

I really love how he glides around the floor - almost like he is on skates and others in the mud. His off ball movement is great and wow the catch and shoot from distance going in either direction is pretty special.

Could picture him running with our 2nd unit —- IQ, Hawkins, Hart, Obi, Hart — would be such a fast line-up.

Really tough kid and the heart of that team BUT at his size he will need to fix that shot or he’ll be in d-league or Europe. He was all over the place but so was a young Elfrid Peyton.

Stan van funds was right on it. Jordan Hawkins is a catch and shoot. Not a spot up. Meaning even w a defender draped on n him. He’s still 40% from 3. Spot up he probably makes 45-47. His release is like Klay Thompson. And he’s no 6-2. He’s somewhere between 6-4/6-5. He was close to having the dunk of the year last night. His shooting will skyrocket him in this draft. Shooting is a premium skill

Remember Andre Jackson is near 6-7. He can’t shoot but he does everything else well. He’s a josh hart type w more size better passer w less of a jumper. Glue guy with awesome playmaking skills

He’s no bigger than 6’2.5” without shoes on. Either that or he shows short.

Maybe 6-4 with shoes on, but again, he looks and plays tiny on the basketball court.

You understand that this info is fairly look-up-able? We don’t need to squint at videos and guess?

What’s going on here?

No he’s super athletic

That was a filthy hammer - he moved up like three to 10 spots in the draft from that dunk alone

Hawkins is listed at 6’ 5”. But seems there are posters here who prefer to make s#!t up.
